Ever wondered how many boosts you need to unlock every Server Perk? This guide covers Discord's Server Levels, Additional Perks, boost requirements, and how much you can save by purchasing boosts through VeyraBoosts instead of Discord.
Server Levels
Discord currently offers three Server Levels, each unlocking additional features for your community.
| Level | Required Boosts |
|---|---|
| Level 1 | 2 Boosts |
| Level 2 | 7 Boosts |
| Level 3 | 14 Boosts |
As your server reaches higher levels, you'll unlock improved emoji capacity, soundboard slots, sticker slots, higher streaming quality, increased upload limits, vanity URL access, animated server icons, banners, and many other server-wide benefits.
Additional Perks
Unlike Server Levels, Additional Perks can be unlocked individually using available Server Boosts.
Server Tag
Required: 3 Boosts
Create a custom four-character Server Tag that members can display across Discord to represent your community.
Enhanced Role Styles
Required: 3 Boosts
Apply animated gradients and holographic effects to selected server roles, making important roles stand out.
Server Tag Badge Packs
Badge Packs let you customize your Server Tag with unique themed icons.
| Badge Pack | Required Boosts |
|---|---|
| Creepy Crawlies | 2 Boosts |
| Pet | 3 Boosts |
| Plant | 3 Boosts |
| Flex | 5 Boosts |
Only one badge can be equipped to your Server Tag at a time.

VeyraBoosts vs Discord
Why pay Discord's full retail pricing when you can get the exact same Server Boosts for less? These prices cover one month and are pulled directly from the current products on VeyraBoosts.
| Boosts (1 Month) | Discord | VeyraBoosts | You Save |

Discord pricing shown is based on the standard Server Boost price without an active Nitro subscription.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Additional Perks count towards my Server Level?
No. Additional Perks use their own allocated boosts and do not contribute toward Server Levels. Likewise, boosts already allocated to your Server Level cannot be used for Additional Perks unless you reallocate them.
Are Additional Perks permanent?
No. Additional Perks remain active only while enough Server Boosts are assigned to them. If your server loses the required boosts, the perk is disabled until the boosts are restored.
Can I unlock every perk?
Yes, provided your server has enough available Server Boosts. Server owners can freely allocate boosts between Server Levels and Additional Perks from the Server Boosts menu.
Are all Additional Perks available on every server?
No. Features such as Larger File Uploads, Server Themes, and Game Server Hosting are currently being rolled out by Discord and may not yet be available for every server.
