Nitro’s Biggest Year Yet: A Look Back at 2026
Discord expands Nitro with 1GB uploads, early access to Clips, new profile and typing customizations, gaming perks, and gift cards. The 2026 roundup highlights broader value for members across Discord and their gaming lives.
Hey there!
I’m Nico, and I help lead the team behind Nitro. Our goal is simple: make Nitro the best membership in gaming.
Since I joined Discord in 2022, my priority has been making Nitro earn its place in your setup. As a gamer, I know how fast new games, subscriptions, and battle passes stack up. When you spend money with us, we want it to be completely worth it.
That starts with how you actually use Discord: deciding what to play, hanging with friends, and recapping whatever chaos went down afterward. Nitro has always leveled up that experience, but this year we wanted to push it further, bringing real value across your entire gaming life, both on and off Discord.
And we're seeing the difference: 90% of Nitro members say Nitro makes their Discord experience better¹. That's the kind of feedback that keeps pushing us to make it even better.
Here’s a look at how we powered up Nitro in 2026.
Raw Power: 1GB Uploads & Access to Clips
The best perks are the ones you stop noticing because everything works smoothly when you need it. This year, we doubled down on making the things you do every day even easier.
We doubled your file upload limit, from 500MB to 1GB. Now you can drop longer clips, high-res videos, and whatever massive file your friend insists everyone needs to see. No compression gymnastics required.
Turns out you loved it as much as we did: 1GB uploads took the crown as our most popular launch this year, with 75% of members saying they love it¹.
Early access to Clips. Next time someone yells “CLIP THAT,” you can actually do it without alt-tabbing to three different apps. Hit your hotkey, capture the moment, and drop the video straight into chat. And stay tuned, we’ve got plenty more coming for Clips.
Switch Up the Vibe: Making Discord Feel Like You
Your Discord, your rules. Whether you're feeling chaotic, ultra zen, or somewhere quirky in between, your Discord should match your energy. This year was all about giving you new ways to bring that personality straight into the chat.
Custom Typing Indicator: The “…is typing” dots have been keeping group chats in suspense for years. Now, Nitro members on mobile can customize their animation and status text. Give the server a polite heads-up next time you’re about to yap their ears off or overshare your life story.
Display Name Styles: We dropped a few new fonts and two effects (coolest ones yet IMO) so you can show your vibe across your profile, chat, and member lists.
Profile Frames: Earlier this year, you got first access to Profile Frames. Plus, your Nitro discount applies automatically in the Shop, so treating yourself or gifting something to your duo costs less.
Keep Your Quest Rewards: With Nitro, you can keep your Quest avatar deco rewards around longer. On top of that, you’ll get a 20% Quest multiplier, making it easy to grab what you want in the Shop without spending a dime.
Nitro Rewards: Leveling Up Your Gaming Setup
Your gaming setup doesn’t end at the edge of the Discord window. If your Friday night voice call is anything like mine, half the battle is just getting four people to agree on what to play without someone having to drop $70 on a game they might abandon by Tuesday.
Nitro Rewards now gives you access to more of the gaming stuff you care about.
- XBOX Game Pass (Included): We baked Game Pass straight into Nitro, giving you access to 50+ PC and console titles (plus 10 hours of cloud gaming). Whether you're into survival, strategy, or just want to farm in peace, there's a game for you. Hop in voice and hang with your friends while you play.
- Early Access to CoD: MW4 & exclusive in-game items: Playing before everyone else is an elite feeling. Nitro members received early beta access and an exclusive weapon blueprint for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 to lock in their loadout before launch.
- Discounts on YouTube Premium: Get six months of YouTube Premium at a discount, so you can watch guides, walkthroughs, and gaming videos without ads.
- Gear Discounts & Cash Back: Replacing gear shouldn't wipe out your wallet. We brought in up to 30% off at Logitech G, 15% off SteelSeries, and your first year free of My Best Buy Plus™ for bonus rewards on the most popular games and hardware. Make sure to claim the Best Buy perk before November 18, 2026.
The Easiest Holiday W: Discord Gift Cards
Turns out, you all really love gifting things to each other. More than 5 million Nitro subscriptions have been gifted so far this year², and Christmas Day is Discord's single biggest gifting day of the year—roughly 3.5x a normal day².
So this holiday season, we're making it even easier to give your friends something they'll love with Discord Gift Cards.
If you’re figuring out what to put on your Christmas list (or scrambling to find a gift for a friend whose gaming taste you don't fully understand), this covers it all. Gift Cards can be used across Discord: on Nitro, Shop, Server Boosts, and more.
You can send a digital card instantly or pick up a physical card at major retailers to slide into a holiday card. Check our Gift Cards page to see retailers and availability near you.
What's Next? Nitro Turns 10
That was a lot of reading, but with more than ten drops, we had a lot of ground to cover.
2026 was a great year for us, and 2027 will mark a huge milestone: Nitro turns 10! We’re already cooking up a few surprises next year, but we want to know what you want next. Drop by our Town Hall server to share your ideas and help build the future of Nitro.
Thanks for playing with us and making this place what it is.

Microsoft Teams adds admin controls for profanity filtering in meeting transcripts and consent requirements before meetings, while web calls can stay visible in a separate window for easier multitasking.
- Microsoft Teams: Admins can control profanity filtering in meeting transcripts: Teams admins can use a meeting policy to control whether profane words are masked in live transcription and saved meeting transcripts. Filtering is on by default. If the meeting organizer is assigned a policy that turns it off, profane words appear unmasked in both transcripts. Live captions continue to follow each participant’s profanity setting.
- Keep calls visible in a separate window in Teams for the web: Calls can now open in a simplified window that persists on top of other content when you navigate away from or hide the browser tab or PWA hosting the call. This makes it easier to multitask during a call.
- Require consent before joining Teams meetings: Several customers have their customized terms and conditions that they want to ensure all participants of their hosted meetings, provide their explicit consent. We are providing a new configuration experience in Teams Admin Center where tenant admins can enable explicit consent before joining any meeting hosted in their organization.

Discord Gift Cards: The Easiest Holiday Gift on Your List
Discord brings gift cards to select retailers and online in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Spain. Recipients can redeem balances for Nitro, Shop items, Server Boosts, and more on desktop or the web.
The holidays are almost here, and we’re making it even easier to give your friends something they’ll actually love on Discord. Good news: Discord gift cards are now available in stores and online at select retailers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Spain.
A gift card makes it easy to buy all sorts of stuff on Discord. Whether you buy one for a friend, your duo partner in your game-night server, or yourself, it’s a direct way to give someone the choice of what to buy on Discord. You choose the amount, and they choose how to spend it.
Spend a Discord Gift Card Your Way
Everyone uses Discord a little differently. Some people want crisp streams for movie night, some want a profile that matches their whole vibe, and some just want to show their favorite community some love. A gift card covers all of it.
Once a gift card is redeemed, the balance is added to your account. You can then spend it on things like:
- Nitro memberships: For the friend who’s always streaming, clipping, or sending files way too big for chat. Nitro brings crisper streams, bigger memes, and more.
- The Shop: For the friend who changes their avatar decoration more often than their socks. Hundreds of Avatar Decorations, Profile Effects, Nameplates, and Profile Frames help their profile feel like them.
- Server Boosts: For the friend who runs (or basically lives in) a server. Boosts unlock perks everyone in the server can enjoy.
- And more: Grab in-game items from Game Shops without leaving Discord, or use your balance to send Nitro or something from the Shop to a friend.
Where to Grab a Discord Gift Card
You can find Discord gift cards in stores and online at select retailers, including Walmart, Best Buy®, Target, and GameStop in the US. You’ll also find them starting to roll out at Micromania in France, Gamelife in Italy, and GAME in Spain. Pick a preset amount or choose your own. Short on time? Digital gift cards can be sent straight to someone’s inbox.
Availability varies by country and is expanding over time, so check our Help Center for the latest list of where to buy.
What to Know Before You Buy
Before you check out, here are a few quick things so your gift works the moment they open it:
Buy it where they’ll use it. A Discord gift card works in the country where it’s bought, and it’ll only redeem on accounts set to that same Country/Region. One note: Cards bought in France, Italy, or Spain are loaded with euros, so they’ll work in any country that uses the euro.
They’ll need a Discord account. It’s free to sign up, so if your recipient is new to Discord, that’s step one.
Spending happens on desktop and web for now. Gift card balances can’t be used in the iOS or Android app. You can redeem and spend on the desktop app or in any web browser, including the one on your phone, and anything you buy shows up across all your devices.
Only on mobile? We really recommend using the desktop app for the best experience, but if you don’t have access, head to discord.com/login to spend through the web app.
Keep it safe. Only buy from official retailers, never share your code, and never buy a gift card to make a payment someone else asked you to make. Learn how to spot gift card scams.
How to Redeem a Discord Gift Card
Now for the fun part. Redeeming only takes a few steps, and then the balance is ready to spend. Great news for visual learners: we have a video that shows you how to redeem your gift card.
Got a physical card? Scan the QR code, sign in to your Discord account, and you’ll immediately go to the redemption page. Otherwise, you can also follow the steps directly below to redeem a gift card:
- Scan the QR code on your physical card, or head to discord.com/redeem in any web browser.
- Log in to your Discord account, or sign up for free if you’re new.
- Make sure it’s the right account, since balances can’t be transferred once redeemed.
- Find your code! For physical cards, gently scratch off the foil cover on the back. For digital gift cards, the code is in your email.
- Enter your code exactly as shown and follow the on-screen prompts.
That’s it! Your balance is added to your account and ready to spend. You can also redeem from User Settings > Billing > Payment Methods in the Discord desktop app.
Wrapping It Up
Next time you’re in the gift card aisle, look for us. Not sure how much to put on one? Peek at someone’s Wishlist on their profile to see what they’ve had their eye on. Maybe it tops off their Nitro, unlocks a new look in the Shop, or powers up their favorite server. Either way, we hope it makes someone’s holiday a little easier and a little brighter.
This is just the first holiday season for Discord gift cards, and we’re looking to bring them to even more countries in 2027.
Happy holidays from all of us at Discord! Head to discord.com/gift-cards, or check out the Discord Gift Cards FAQ in our Help Center for everything else.
