Discord Vanity URLs: How They Work and Where to Buy Rare Ones
What is a vanity URL
A custom invite link in the format discord.gg/yourname. Replaces the random 8-character invite codes with something memorable.
Requirements
Server must be at Discord Boost Level 3 — meaning 14 active boosts. Below that, no vanity. This makes short and dictionary-word vanities genuinely scarce.
What makes one valuable
Length (3-character vanities are extremely rare), dictionary words (real names, hobbies, brands), and whether they're already taken or available.
How marketplace transfers work
Sellers either: (a) transfer ownership of a server with the vanity already attached, or (b) release the vanity on cue so the buyer can immediately claim it on their own Level-3 server. Both happen inside the middleman ticket.
Pricing reality
5-letter words: $50–300. 4-letter words: $200–1500. 3-letter combos: $1000+. Brand names: negotiated, often very high.
