Bot, verification & bonuses

Connecting Your Discord

Link your Discord account to Swisserways

Swisserways uses Discord for authentication and task verification. When you sign in with Discord, your account is automatically linked.

What We Access

Username & Avatar - For your profile
Discord ID - To verify server membership
Server List - Only to check which servers you've joined

Privacy First

We never post on your behalf, read your messages, or access any private data. We only verify what's needed for giveaway tasks.

Automatic Verification

How our bot verifies Discord tasks

Our Discord bot enables instant verification of "Join Server" tasks. Here's how it works:

Join the Server

Click the Discord task and join the server using the invite link provided.

Click Verify

Return to Swisserways and click the "Verify" button on the task.

Instant Check

Our bot checks if you're in the server. If the bot is present, verification is instant. Otherwise, manual verification applies.

Entries Awarded

Once verified, your entries are immediately added to your total.

Bot Required

For instant verification, the Swisserways bot must be in the Discord server. If it's not, the giveaway creator can invite it, or manual verification may be used.

Periodic Re-verification

Keeping your entries valid

To prevent abuse, our system periodically re-verifies Discord memberships. This ensures participants actually stay in the servers they joined.

How It Works

Verification runs automatically every few hours
If you've left a server, your entries from that task are removed
You're not notified of verification - it happens silently
Re-joining the server can restore your entries if caught in time

Stay in Servers

Always remain in Discord servers until the giveaway ends. Leaving early and rejoining later may not restore your entries if verification ran while you were gone.

Server Booster Bonus

Extra entries for Discord Nitro boosters

Discord Nitro subscribers who boost a server can earn bonus entries on giveaways linked to that server.

Booster Benefits

Boosters receive additional entries on top of regular task rewards

How Booster Bonuses Work

Automatic Detection - Our bot checks your booster status when you verify
Stacking - Bonus entries stack with regular task entries
Dynamic Updates - If you start or stop boosting, your entries update accordingly
Per-Server - Each server's giveaways may have different bonus amounts

Maximize Your Chances

If you're already a Nitro subscriber, consider boosting servers that host giveaways you want to win. The bonus entries can significantly improve your odds!

For Server Owners

Adding the Swisserways bot to your server

If you're creating giveaways with Discord tasks, adding our bot enables instant verification and booster bonuses.

Get the Invite Link

When creating a giveaway with a Discord task, you'll see an option to invite the bot to your server.

Authorize the Bot

Click the invite link and authorize the bot with the required permissions. It needs access to see members and their roles.

Configure Your Giveaway

With the bot in your server, participants can instantly verify their membership. Optionally enable booster bonuses for extra engagement.

Bot Permissions

The bot requires minimal permissions: View Channels, View Server Members, and View Roles. It cannot read messages or modify anything in your server.
