How to Stop New Members From Leaving Your Discord Server
Add Tiko to your serverTiko helps Discord servers improve member retention and activation by rewarding existing members for welcoming newcomers and starting real conversations.
Fix it with Tiko
Why new members leave
Every server owner knows the feeling. A new member joins the server, the only welcome they get is from a bot. Everybody else is either busy talking about something else or not interested in welcoming the new member. The new member feels ignored and leaves the server. Or they get welcomed, but get ignored in the chat.
A welcome message is not enough
Every Discord bot has a welcome message. Almost none of them have a reason for anyone to respond to it. The welcome message tells the server that somebody joined. It does not tell the server why they should care.
With Tiko
With Tiko, new members not only get a bot welcome message. They also get a welcome message from real people, and anyone who welcomes them in the welcome channel by pinging them gets paid in a dedicated bot command channel.
And the reward is not boring. The more active you are in the server, the more you earn for welcoming people, and your level raises your payout. Sometimes the reward rolls high and you get a jackpot.
The result
The newcomer's first experience in the server is not ignored. It is warmth. Multiple people saying welcome. A conversation starting. The first reason to stay.
Hospitality that creates conversations
Welcome is only the beginning
Saying "welcome" is easy. Actually talking to the new member is what makes them stay.
Tiko runs a second system alongside the welcome reward, and it rewards something different: engagement.
How Hospitality scoring works
- The first person to reply to the newcomer earns a point.
- If the newcomer replies back to someone, that person earns a point too.
- If someone keeps the conversation going with the newcomer, they keep earning for a specific amount of time.
That means the newcomer does not just get a wall of "welcome!" messages that mean nothing. They get people who actually want to talk to them, because talking is worth something.
A shop built by the server
Users spend their reward on a shop the server's admins design. They add roles, set prices, and pick icons. The regular opens the market, browses what is available, buys a role with their points, and equips it. It shows up next to their name in the server as a visible sign that they show up for new members. Owned permanently. Refunded if the admin ever removes it.

Why members stay
They came to a server where people are not just polite; they are actively interested in them. That is the difference between a server people lurk in and a server people stay in.
