Auctions & Custom Roles
Members bid currency on limited slots for a custom role, emoji, sticker, or soundboard sound. Winners keep their prize for one cycle, then it goes back up for auction.
Commands
Seven Independent Auction Types
Three "role" tiers share one bid pool and one combined announcement, plus four standalone types. A member can only end up holding their single highest won tier; see Consolidation below.
| Type | What you win |
|---|---|
| Role — Color | A custom role with your chosen color |
| Role — Style | A custom role with a color or 2-color gradient (on servers that support role gradients) |
| Role — Icon | A custom role with a color/gradient and a custom role icon (needs Boost Level 2+) |
| Emoji | A custom server emoji you name and upload |
| Sticker | A custom server sticker you upload |
| Soundboard | A custom soundboard sound you upload |
| Custom | Whatever you describe (see below) |
Slot counts for emoji/sticker/soundboard are capped by the server's current Boost Level (more slots at higher boost tiers); role slots are capped by how close the server is to Discord's 250-role ceiling.
Custom Auctions
The custom type sells something that isn't in your shop and isn't a Discord object at all: a shoutout, a say-in-the-next-event, a commission, anything you can describe in a sentence. Type what you're selling in the What you're selling field and that wording becomes the prize.
Winners don't get a role or an upload prompt. The prize lands in their inventory as Custom — your wording, and they redeem it whenever they like. Redeeming sends the request through to your staff to fulfil by hand, the same path a Custom Request shop item uses. Because it sits in the inventory rather than being held for a cycle, a win never expires unclaimed.
Running Several at Once
The Run Auctions card at the top of the page lets you tick which auctions to open and start them together on one shared clock, so they all close at the same moment. Leave the window blank and they take the longest window among the ones you picked, so nothing gets cut shorter than it was configured for; set a number to override all of them.
The three role tiers appear as a single Role tiers tick. They share one announcement and one lock-in, so opening one without the others would leave a half-open board. Auctions already running, or never configured, show greyed out with the reason next to them rather than disappearing from the list.
Start All Idle is still there beside it and behaves as it always did: it opens everything that can open, each on its own configured window.
Bidding
Placing or raising a bid moves currency out of your wallet immediately (escrow-style). If you're later outbid, you're refunded automatically and instantly. You can also voluntarily withdraw a bid during the open window for a full refund.
| Setting | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Start Price | 1,000 | Minimum first bid |
| Min Bid Increment | 100 | Smallest amount a new bid must beat the current lowest winner by |
| Max Raise per Bid (0 = unlimited) | 0 | Caps how far above your own previous bid a single raise can jump |
| Bidding Window | 48 hours | How long the auction stays open (1–336h) |
| Cycle Length | 30 days | How long a winner keeps their prize before it's re-auctioned (1–365 days) |
| Bid Cooldown | 0 (none) | Minimum seconds between raising your own existing bid |
There's no auto-extend / anti-snipe. The window closes at its fixed timestamp no matter when the last bid landed, so a last-second bid can win outright.
Lock-In & Consolidation
When the window closes, the top bids (up to the slot count) win and everyone else is refunded. For the three role tiers specifically: if a member won bids in more than one tier, they keep only their highest tier and are refunded for the rest. The freed slot cascades to the next-highest remaining bidder in that tier.
At the end of a cycle, all current holdings are removed (role deleted, emoji/sticker/soundboard removed) and the slots go back up for auction. No refund happens at cycle-end, since winners already got their full cycle.
Claiming Your Prize
For the Role tiers, clicking Claim creates (or restores) an editable role and assigns it immediately. /myrole then lets you set its name and color (or a 2-color gradient for Style/Icon tiers, with a live preview), and, for the Icon tier on boosted servers, upload a small square image as the role's icon.
For Emoji / Sticker / Soundboard, clicking Claim prompts you to upload the asset within 60 seconds (image for emoji/sticker, audio for soundboard); whatever you type alongside becomes its name. The server's Emoji & Stickers log records who actually claimed it and tags the entry as coming from an auction, rather than crediting the bot.
Dashboard Controls
One shared announcement channel for all auction types. The three role tiers share one combined "Start/End Role Auction" control; emoji/sticker/soundboard each have their own independent Start Now/End Now button and settings. A "Start All" action launches every configured-but-idle auction type at once.
