Sell a Catalog Listing in Discord
In this how-to we will create a catalog listing offer ready to publish in your Discord server.
Prerequisites
A configured Stripe integration in your LootLocker account
Squire invited and configured in your Discord server
Create a Catalog Listing Offer in Discord
Squire Commerce uses the same Catalog Listings system as the rest of LootLocker, allowing you to connect Discord purchase offers directly to your existing economy, progression, and asset systems.
Create a Catalog Listing
In the LootLocker Web Console, create a new Catalog and Catalog Listing and configure it as you normally would, including:
A name and key
The item being sold (progression, virtual currency, or asset/cosmetic)
The virtual currency price (optional)
Click the Save button to save the Catalog Listing.
Configure Stripe Settings
Once the Catalog Listing has been saved, inspect the listing by clicking on the View Listing button in the Actions column, and navigate to the IAP tab. Select Stripe Store from the list of avilable providers and fill in the following information:
Listing Name:The name that will appear in the purchase flow and receipt. If left blank, LootLocker will use the Catalog Listing name instead.
Price: The price of the listing in USD, entered in cents. For example, enter 999 for $9.99 USD.
Subscriptions Settings: Either Disabled for one-time purchases, or enabled for a Subscription
Configure Squire Settings
Next, navigate to the Squire tab to configure how the purchase offer announcement will appear in Discord.
Configure the content for the Discord offer post by adding a title and body text using plain text or markdown, and add a custom image to make the offer post more visually engaging.
Use the Preview Embed button to see exactly how the post will appear in Discord before publishing.
Publish to Discord
When you are ready to launch the offer, click Send Catalog Listing Message and select the Discord channel where you want the offer to appear, then click Send Catalog Listing Message to publish the post in Discord.
Squire will create a message in the selected channel with a Purchase Item button that players can interact with directly inside Discord.
Purchasing a Listing
When a player clicks Purchase Item, they are taken through a secure Stripe-powered checkout flow. The purchased content is then granted to the LootLocker player profile associated with that user's Discord ID. If a profile with that Discord ID does not exist within LootLocker, one is created automatically and transparently.
Conclusion
In this how-to we have created and published a Catalog Listing offer in Discord. Whether you're selling cosmetics, virtual currency bundles, or progression unlocks, Squire Commerce gives you a simple way to connect Discord engagement directly to your game's economy and monetization systems.
When your game is ready, integrating the LootLocker SDK allows purchased content to be surfaced and applied directly in-game for players who have already bought it through Discord.
