Memberful Discord integration: give members a role automatically
Updated · Paid-member gating
Memberful has a Discord integration that lets members connect their Discord account and receive a role tied to their plan; when the subscription ends, the role is removed. It's a good fit if you already sell memberships or a newsletter with Memberful and want Discord as one of the perks.
| Tool | Best fit | Discord role sync |
|---|---|---|
| Memberful | Membership sites and newsletters on your own site | Yes, per plan |
| Patreon | Creators with patrons and posts on Patreon | Yes, per tier |
| Whop | Marketplace and multiple digital products | Yes |
| LaunchPass | Simple paywall for one community | Yes |
