Move your Discord server to Taverns, free.

Our free Discord migration tool copies your server’s channels, roles, permissions, emoji and stickers into a brand new tavern. Nothing on your Discord changes, and you check everything before your tavern is made.

Free, and your Discord server stays exactly as it is.

Quick answer

Can you move a Discord server to another app?

Yes. Taverns’ free Discord migration tool copies your server’s setup (channels, categories, roles, permissions, custom emoji and stickers) into a new tavern, and your Discord server stays exactly as it is.

Messages, message history and members don’t move, so once your tavern is ready you invite your people with a link. Someone with Manage Server adds the bot, someone with Administrator runs /migrate, and you check a preview before anything is created. It costs nothing.

  • Free, no subscription
  • Read-only on Discord: nothing is posted, edited or deleted
  • You see a preview before your tavern is made
  • Up to 200 channels, 50 roles, 250 emoji and 60 stickers per move

Push the button. Watch it move.

Here’s what the migration tool packs up and carries over to your new tavern.

Your Discord server

  • ChannelsText, voice, announcement and forum channels and their categories, in order, with topics
  • RolesRole names, colors and permissions, including channel overrides
  • EmojiYour custom emoji, up to 250
  • StickersYour supported stickers, up to 60
  • Name & iconYour server’s name, description, icon and banner

All moved in. Your Discord didn’t change a thing.

Your new tavern

  • Channels
  • Roles
  • Emoji
  • Stickers
  • Name & icon

Just a demo: this button doesn’t talk to Discord. The real move starts when you add the migration tool.

Four steps. One command.

How to move your Discord server to Taverns with the migration tool.

  1. Step 1:Add the migration tool

    Needs Manage Server

    Tap Add the migration tool and pick your server. It only asks Discord to view channels.

  2. Step 2:Run /migrate

    Needs Administrator

    Type /migrate in any channel. The reply is only visible to you, and nothing is posted to your server.

  3. Step 3:Open your private link

    Works for one hour

    The bot gives you a link to tav.gg. Sign in or make a free account. Keep the link to yourself: anyone signed in who has it can use it.

  4. Step 4:Check it and create your tavern

    You confirm

    Look over the preview of your channels, roles, emoji and stickers. Your tavern is made only when you say go.

Your Discord server stays read-only the whole time. The bot doesn’t post, edit or delete anything there.

What comes with you, what stays behind.

The migration tool moves your server’s setup. Your people and your history stay on Discord until you bring them over.

Comes with you

  • Server name, description, icon and banner
  • Channels and categories, in order, with their topics
  • Roles, their colors and their permissions
  • Channel and category permission overrides
  • Custom emoji and supported stickers
  • NSFW and slow mode settings, where both apps have them

Stays on Discord

  • Messages and message history
  • Members and the roles given to each member
  • Bots, webhooks and connected apps
  • Scheduled events and AutoMod rules
  • Audit logs
  • Animated (Lottie) stickers

Anything Discord-only with no Taverns match (like an unusual channel type or permission) may be skipped or mapped to the closest fit. You see it all in the preview first.

How much fits in one move?

Plenty for most servers. These are the limits for each move.

  • 200channels
  • 50roles
  • 250custom emoji
  • 60stickers

Got more than that? Trim a few channels or roles before you run /migrate. Once you’ve moved in, every tavern has room for 700 emoji and 1,000 stickers.

Questions, answered.

Is the Discord migration tool free?

Yes. Adding the bot, running /migrate and creating your tavern are all free, and so is Taverns itself.

Does it copy messages or members?

No. Messages, message history and members stay on Discord. The tool copies your server’s setup, then you invite your people with a link. Your old server can stay open as an archive.

Will it change my Discord server?

No. The bot only reads your server’s setup. It doesn’t post, edit or delete anything, and its reply to /migrate is only visible to you.

What permissions do I need to move my Discord server?

Whoever adds the bot needs Manage Server, and whoever runs /migrate needs Administrator. The bot itself only asks Discord to view channels.

Is this the same as Discord Ripper?

Yes, that’s the name our migration tool goes by on Discord. Same free tool.

Moving day

Add the migration tool, run /migrate, and your tavern is ready when you are. Your Discord stays right where it is.
