- 🎁 Claim your Orbs once the quest is completed
- 🛒 Head to the Store and exchange your Orbs for Nitro credits.

⚠️ Be wary of Nitro generators
You're bound to come across «Nitro generators»—Python scripts or bots that promise unlimited free Nitro. The truth is: They're all scams, without exception.
No tool can generate a real subscription. It's technically impossible, because Discord verifies each subscription on the server side.
These fake tools have only one purpose: to trick you!
The classic scam: a fake bot messages you, saying, «Link your Steam account and get 1 month of Nitro.» In reality, you’re giving it access to your account. Some fake generators even install malware on your computer.
❌ Also, be wary of the «Twitch Prime = Free Nitro» scam: it’s a classic ploy—there’s no such offer.
✅ The only methods that really work are the ones described above.
