What does work is sharing a link to a hosted game with your community: members click it, the game opens and plays in their browser, and you earn from that traffic. For website and community owners, <a href=\"https:\/\/playgama.com\/partners\">Playgama Partners<\/a> provides 3,000+ games available to partner sites via widget and API.<\/p>\n<h2>What actually decides whether you earn anything?<\/h2>\n<p>Whether your audience actually clicks and plays. A link sitting in a low-traffic channel earns nothing; a link shared by an active streamer or community mod with genuine engagement can generate real recurring plays. This is different from running your own ad slots on a games section &#8211; here you&#8217;re not hosting anything, you&#8217;re routing your audience to games hosted elsewhere and taking a revenue share for the referral.<\/p>\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/playgama.com\/partners\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Playgama Partners<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.playgama.com\/playgama\/for-partners\/share-your-referral-game-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Playgama wiki: Share your referral Game Link<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gamedistribution.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">GameDistribution<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Related questions<\/h2>\n<h3>Can I embed a playable game widget directly in a Discord server?<\/h3>\n<p>No. Discord does not render embedded HTML5 game widgets or iframes inside a server; you can only share a link that opens the game in a browser tab.<\/p>\n<h3>Do I need to host the game myself to earn from Discord traffic?<\/h3>\n<p>No. With an affiliate game link the game stays hosted on the platform&#8217;s site; you just share the link and earn a revenue share from clicks and plays.<\/p>\n<p><em>Last updated: 24 September 2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\", \"@type\": \"FAQPage\", \"mainEntity\": [{\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Can I add games to a Discord server and earn from them?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Discord does not let you embed a playable game widget inside a server.
