Groupbuy or Partnership Channel?

What is the difference between a groupbuy and a partnership channel, and which should I choose?

1 min readUpdated November 5, 2026

Every deal is made of two posts: your ad in their server, and their ad in yours. For each one, you choose where it goes.

The Two Options#

	Groupbuy	Partnership channel
Where the ad goes	The server's shared partner channel, alongside other partners	A new channel just for that partner
Who sees it first	Whoever reads the shared channel	Anyone browsing the channel list, since it has its own name
Who else is there	Other partners' ads	Only that partner's ads
Best for	Most swaps	Bigger or longer-running partners

Both sides are chosen separately. Tower could give you a channel while you give them a groupbuy.

The bot makes channels inside the category you chose when you set up. Members can read them but can't post.
The shared channel is called groupbuy-partners, unless you already had one. It's created the first time an ad needs it.
A partnership channel is named after the partner. If you partner with them again, the same channel is reused.
If you delete a channel, the bot makes a new one the next time it needs it.

Note

If a category is full, Discord won't allow another channel, so Partnership channel is greyed out. Discord allows 50 channels in a category.
