Economy

Members earn Boovies 🪙 - your server's own currency - just by being active: chatting, talking in voice, streaming and with their camera on. They spend them in your shop on roles, server XP, items or rewards your team hands out.

▶ Demo

Setup

1. Open Dashboard › Economy › Economy Settings.
2. Switch the economy on. Optional: rename the currency and pick another emoji - “Boovies 🪙” is just the default.
3. Set how much each activity pays and the daily limit per member - the preview shows what a member can earn per hour.
4. Click Add item to put the first reward into the shop.
5. Done - members check their balance with /balance and shop with /rewards.

Earning

All four rates can be fractions - 0.5 means one Boovie every two minutes; the parts are collected and paid out as whole coins. 0 switches an activity off.

• Daily limit - nobody earns more than this per day (default 500). It starts again at midnight in your server's time zone.
• Not alone - by default voice only pays with at least one other person in the channel. Bots don't count, so a music bot is no company.
• The AFK channel never pays. Muted or deafened members don't earn in voice either - unless you allow it.
• Long messages - optionally, a message with at least a set number of characters (100-1,500) pays double. Off by default.
• Threads and forums - both earn by default; switch either off if you don't want them to.

Which channels and roles earn

For channels and for roles you pick how the list works:

A category on the list covers all its channels. A thread follows its channel.

Multipliers

Give roles or channels a multiplier from ×0.1 to ×10 - for example ×2 for server boosters, or ×0.5 in a spam channel. Up to 25 of each.

• A member with several multiplied roles gets the highest one, not all of them stacked.
• For channels the most specific one counts: the channel itself, otherwise its parent channel (for threads), otherwise its category.
• Role and channel multiply each other: a ×2 role in a ×1.5 channel earns ×3.
• The daily limit still applies on top.

Daily reward, invites & paying

• /daily - once a day a member collects a bonus (default 50). Every day in a row adds more (default +10), up to day 7 - you choose the last bonus day yourself (1-30, 1 = always the same amount). Missing a day starts again at day 1. It doesn't count against the daily limit.
• Invite reward - the inviter gets Boovies (default 100) once the invited member has stayed a few days (default 3). It uses the Invite Tracker: members who left again, fake joins and self-invites never pay, and each member pays only once - leaving and rejoining doesn't count again.
• /pay - members send each other Boovies, with an optional note. A daily sending limit (default 1,000) stops second accounts from collecting coins for one main account.

New members, leaving & the log

• Starting money - every new member gets this once when they join (members who were already here don't). Rejoining doesn't pay it again.
• Reset on leave / on ban - optionally a member's balance is set to 0 when they leave or are banned. Both are off by default; the history keeps a line for it.
• Birthday gift - with Birthdays set up, members get Boovies on their birthday - once per year.

Economy log - its own section in Economy Settings: pick a channel and switch on what gets posted there - shop purchases and rewards to hand out, admin changes (including resets, drops and changes made in the dashboard), /pay, /daily, invite rewards and starting money, birthday and giveaway Boovies, mini-games. Everything is on except /daily and mini-games, which would be a message for nearly every member every day. Nobody gets pinged.

Mini-games

Three small games let Boovies leave the economy again - and give members something to do with them. Every game is one line in the history (two for a duel).

In Economy Settings you switch the games on or off, set the highest bet (default 500) and a pause between games per member (default 30 seconds). Lost bets count as spent, won bets don't count as earned - the Who earns how much chart stays about activity.

Balances & the leaderboard

/balance shows your own Boovies and your rank on the server. /balance @member shows someone else's, and /richest lists the richest members (up to 25).

Don't want members to see each other's balances? Switch off Members can see each other's balance - then only admins can look at others and use /richest.

The shop

Members open the shop with /rewards (or the button under /balance), pick an item and confirm. Every item is one of four types:

• Buying a timed role again adds the time on top. A permanent role can only be bought once - and a role the member had before buying is never taken.
• Stock - limit how many can be sold in total, and/or how many each member may buy.
• Pause an item to hide it from the shop - roles already bought keep running.
• If something can't be handed out (missing permission, role deleted), the Boovies come back straight away - exactly once.

Custom rewards: open requests

When a member buys a custom reward, the Boovies are held and the request appears under Open requests in Dashboard › Economy › Economy Activity (and in the log channel, if you set one). Once your team has done it, click Done. Can't do it? Click Refund - the member gets every Boovie back. Members see their waiting requests in /inventory.

Removing items from an inventory

Items stay in a member's inventory - also when you remove the item from the shop. To take them away, click the member in Dashboard › Economy › Economy Activity (in Richest members, the history or Give or take): their inventory opens, and Remove takes one or as many as you enter. In Discord: /economy take-item. The Boovies are not refunded; the history and the log channel show what was removed and by whom.

Admin commands

Everything you can do in the dashboard also works straight in Discord with /economy - for members with Manage Server. A reason is optional; if you give one, it's stored in the history.

On big servers give-role, give-all and the like work through the members in batches and show their progress. If the database hiccups, the bot retries on its own - nobody is paid twice. With a log channel set, every admin change is posted there.

Boovies as a giveaway prize

Add Boovies to any giveaway - in the dashboard or with the boovies option of /giveaway create. Every winner gets them automatically when the giveaway ends, and new winners get them on a reroll. Each winner is paid only once, and only while the economy is switched on.

Economy Activity

Dashboard › Economy › Economy Activity shows how the economy is doing:

• Numbers: Boovies in circulation, members with a balance, earned and bought in the last 7 days, spent in total.
• Who earns how much - a chart of the Boovies earned per day over 7, 30 or 90 days: the top 5 members in their own colours, everyone else added up. Activity, daily rewards, invite rewards and drops count; admin changes and /pay don't.
• Open requests - custom rewards waiting for your team.
• Richest members - click one to see only their history.
• Give or take - add or remove Boovies by hand, e.g. for an event winner. A reason is required and stored.
• History - every single change: activity, purchases, refunds, /daily, /pay, invite rewards, drops, giveaway and birthday Boovies and admin changes (with who made them). Activity older than 30 days is summed up into one line per member and day - the totals stay exactly the same.

Private or public replies

By default /balance, /richest, /rewards, /inventory, /daily and /pay answer only the member (“Only you can see this”). Switch it off in Economy Settings to post them in the channel for everyone - in a public shop anyone can buy with the menu, each with their own balance. Purchase confirmations and errors always stay private. With private replies, /pay tells the receiver by DM.

Safe by design

• Every Boovie that moves is one line in the history - nothing appears or disappears without a trace.
• A balance can never go below 0, and two clicks at the same moment can't buy more than a member can afford or more than is in stock. A drop has exactly one winner.
• If the database is briefly unreachable, earnings wait and are booked later - never twice.
• Boovies belong to one server and have no real-money value: they can't be bought or cashed out.
