Discord Nitro Subscription – How it works
Before the guide starts, you should be formally introduced to the Nitro version in Discord and what it entails. Just as several different content, media, and social platforms have different versions of their platforms for their users, going from basic to premium, depending upon their individual models, Discord does too.
Discord Nitro allows users to avail several fancy and advanced features within the messaging and streaming platform, including better quality audio content, sharing content files that are larger than 8 MB with up to 100MB high-quality file sharing, high-quality screen sharing, and videos with access to streaming in [email protected], several custom emojis for you, etc. It costs $9.99 to subscribe per month and $99.99 if you directly want to go for an annual subscription, giving you several dollars off as a collective subscription discount.
How to cancel Discord Nitro – Guide
There are a couple of different methods that you can opt for here, depending upon your choice completely. One is canceling directly and manually through your Discord account on the app, and the other one is through the ‘DoNotPay’ app that you can download for the process.
For people who have gotten their Discord Nitro subscription via Epic Games, you can follow a similar cancellation process before you get charged a fee.
