Since the Discord Verify Member Button is a relatively new feature, most of you Discord server owners might not know what it is and what it does. Since Discord is swiftly changing (for the better, apparently), we need to know what all these new features are.

As you might have heard, Discord is removing numbers from usernames and making you pick a new one. So among all these changes come this member verification feature.

Don’t know what it is or what it does? Lucky for you, my article explains everything about this Discord Verify Member Button feature and how you can make the best of it.

What is the Discord Verify Member Button?

The Discord Verify Member button is an option that enables the members of a Discord server to be verified for a personalized onboarding experience. So if you own a Discord server, this is an amazing feature to make use of to give your members something to feel more at home!

What Does Verify Member Mean on Discord?

So we know that the Discord Verify Member Button helps you verify the members of your Discord server, but what does verify member even mean on Discord?

Since Discord has changed how the verification process works for the members of a server, it gives server owners more control.

Earlier, if a member needed to be verified to talk in the server but couldn’t verify, you (the server owner) could simply bypass this verification requirement by giving them a role in their server.

Now, the Discord Verify Member button helps server owners verify members without having to fuss about assigning them a role. You just click on verify member, and it’s done.

The Discord Verify Member Button is a big boon for temporary members; read next to see how.

What Does the Discord Verify Member Button Do?

A lot of the time, you have people joining your voice channel. And if there are a lot of them invited, it can be hectic if everyone just talks and you have no control, right? Well, that’s what the Discord Verify Member Button helps you with.

Using the Discord Verify Member Button, you can give them a “temporary membership” to your server or voice channel. What it does is that when they are invited to your voice server, you can have it so that when leave the voice channel, they are removed from the server.

So basically, you can temporarily verify a member with the Discord Verify Member button.
