discord.com/activate: Link Discord on Xbox and PlayStation

Some Discord console and TV sign-ins show a code and ask you to enter it at discord.com/activate on a phone or computer where you are already signed in.

How it works

1. On the console or TV, choose to sign in or link Discord and note the code shown.
2. On your phone or computer, open the address shown on screen, such as discord.com/activate.
3. Sign in to Discord there if asked.
4. Enter the code and confirm.

If the code does not work

• Codes expire quickly: get a fresh one on the console.
• Check you are signed in to the right Discord account.
• Type the code exactly, including any dashes.
• Update the console app.

Linking accounts instead

For Xbox and PlayStation, Discord also links through User Settings › Connections in the Discord app. Follow the steps the console shows, as the method changes between versions.

Stay safe

Only enter codes on the address your own screen shows. Sites asking you to "activate Nitro" or "verify" with a code you were sent are scams.

Signing in on a smart TV browser

On devices without a Discord app, you may be offered a QR code to scan with the Discord mobile app instead of a typed code. Scanning signs the TV or browser in to the account on your phone, so make sure the right account is open on your phone first.
