How to Verify NFT Holders on Discord in 2025 (Complete Guide)

What is NFT Verification on Discord?

NFT verification is the process of connecting a user's blockchain wallet to their Discord account to prove they own specific NFTs. This enables token-gated communities where only verified holders can access exclusive channels, roles, and benefits.

Whether you're running a Solana NFT project, an Ethereum PFP collection, or a Web3 gaming community, NFT verification is essential for building trust and providing value to your holders.

Why Verify NFT Holders?

• Exclusive Access - Gate alpha channels, private discussions, and holder-only content
• Prevent Fake Holders - Stop non-holders from accessing premium areas
• Automatic Role Assignment - No manual verification needed
• Build Community Trust - Verified badges show commitment
• Tiered Access - Different roles for 1 NFT vs 5 NFTs vs 10 NFTs

Step-by-Step: Setting Up NFT Verification with Azalea Gate

Step 1: Invite the Bot

First, invite Azalea Gate to your Discord server. Grant the bot Administrator permissions for full functionality.

Step 2: Add Your NFT Collection

Use the following command to add your first collection:

/nft-config add-collection [collection_address] [role]

For Solana NFTs, use the Metaplex Collection Address or the Update Authority.
For Ethereum NFTs, use the ERC-721 contract address with the /evm-config command.

Step 3: Create a Verification Panel

Set up a permanent verification button in your server:

/setup-verification-panel #verify-here

This creates an embed with a "Verify" button that users can click anytime.

Step 4: Users Verify

When users click "Verify" or use /verify, they receive a link to connect their wallet. After signing a message (no gas required), they're instantly verified and receive their role.
