Launch your guild

From an empty guild to your first members, step by step.

This guide takes you from no guild to a guild people can join: create it, set up roles with requirements and rewards, organize your pages, then share the link.

1. Create the guild

Go to /create. The setup has four steps:

  1. Welcome: sign in with Google or an email address. Guild uses it as the creator contact for setup and important updates.
  2. Create guild: enter a Guild name, upload a logo and, if you like, a Description. The name and the logo are required. You can change all of them later.
  3. Goals: pick what you want to achieve. This helps Guild tailor your experience.
  4. Choose plan: start a paid plan with a 7-day free trial, or press Continue to guild to keep using the free plan and choose later. See Plans.

Your new guild starts with a Home page and a Member role that everyone who joins gets.

2. Open the admin panel

On your guild, choose Manage guild in the guild's sidebar. The admin panel is where you build everything below. See The admin panel.

3. Brand the guild

Open Guild details to set:

  • the name, logo and cover image
  • the description and the guild's URL, which becomes your permanent link
  • links to your social accounts, shown in the guild's header
  • the surface and accent colors
  • other admins who help you run the guild

Changes save together from the bar at the bottom of the page.

4. Set up roles

Open Roles. Start with the default Member role, then add more with New role.

For each role:

  1. Unlocks: add the rewards members get, such as a Discord role, a Telegram group, points or access to a page. See Rewards.
  2. Who gets it: add requirements with Add requirement, then choose whether members need all of them or only some. See Requirements.
  3. Give the role a name, an image and a description, and press Save.

A role with no requirement other than the default is open: everyone who joins gets it. Your first requirement replaces that default.

[!TIP] Most guilds start with two to five roles on the home page, such as "Follow us on X" or "Join the Discord", then add tiers, quests and specialist roles on their own pages as they grow.

For the details, see Roles.

5. Connect your platforms

Discord roles and Telegram groups need Guild connected to your server or group. You set that up when you add a Discord or Telegram reward to a role. Connected platforms are then listed under Connections, and the Discord and Telegram modules show your servers, groups and their rewards. See Discord rewards and Telegram rewards.

6. Organize pages and spaces

Open Spaces & roles and use the Space menu to add pages with New space and put them in order by dragging them in the sidebar's Spaces list. Space settings chooses who can see each one. Use pages for campaigns, onboarding or groups such as developers, and keep the home page simple, because it is what visitors see first.

A page can also be a feed, an announcements channel or a chat. See Pages and spaces.

7. Test it as a member

Choose View as member in the admin sidebar to see the guild as your members do. Check that each role reads clearly, that its requirements make sense, and that the rewards are the ones you meant.

8. Share it

Your guild lives at guild.xyz/ followed by its URL name. Share that link on your social channels and in your Discord or Telegram. Each role also has a Copy link action under Manage in its inspector, to point people at one role.

When your guild is complete and publicly announced, you can get it verified so it is listed in the explorer.
