How to use knoad
Last updated: June 2026
Quick start
1. Sign in with Discord - top-right, or front and centre on the home page.
2. Open your Dashboard → Profile tab. Link your wallet, email, and X.
3. Peek at Rewards for your ARC balance and Tower entries.
4. Server owners: install with Get knoad, then use Admin for entry rules and analytics.
What is knoad?
Think of knoad as your community's control room - profile, wallets, server settings, all in one place.
The five tools below do the heavy lifting, mostly inside Discord. knoad wires them to your identity so everything stays connected.
The stack
teezr
Own the entry. Control the crowd.
teezr runs your entry flow - allowlists, raffles, spot caps, deadlines. Set the rules once; teezr handles sign-ups and keeps the list honest.
Reach for it when you're launching something and need a clean way to decide who gets in.
Tip
Spreadsheets are for accountants. teezr is for launches.
Where you use it: Build and run campaigns at teezr.io. knoad links you there.
sweepr
Make every on-chain move impossible to ignore.
sweepr watches NFT sales and paid mints from collections you track. When activity hits, it posts in your server and credits rewards - ARC and Tower raffle entries - to the buyer.
Admins enroll collections and pull analytics on knoad. Members check their balance on the Rewards tab.
Tip
Buyers don't need to lift a finger - rewards land automatically when a qualifying sale hits.
Where you use it: Sales and mint alerts live in Discord. Your ARC and Tower entries show up on knoad under Rewards.
holdr
Know exactly who's holding - and act on it.
holdr checks which members actually own your NFTs and updates their Discord roles - holder tiers, VIP access, whatever you've mapped.
Members link a wallet on knoad, then run Verify Holdings in your server's holdr panel. Roles update to match what they hold.
Tip
Link your wallet on knoad first. holdr can't verify what it can't see.
Where you use it: Profile tab on knoad to link wallets. Verify Holdings in Discord to sync roles.
givr
Run giveaways that close themselves.
givr runs timed giveaways end to end. Schedule a start and end, post a live entry panel in a channel, and members enter with a click.
When the clock runs out, givr draws winners and updates the panel. You don't chase anyone down.
Tip
Set it, post it, walk away. givr announces winners on the same message - no follow-up thread required.
Where you use it: All in Discord - setup, entries, and the draw.
bouncr
Nothing gets in unless it earns it.
bouncr is the gate. Pick what applicants need - linked wallet, verified email, connected X, minimum NFT holdings, account age, and more.
They complete their knoad profile, request entry in Discord, and you see who tried, who got in, and why others were turned away - right in the Admin tab.
Tip
Set the rules on knoad. Post the panel in Discord. That's the whole playbook.
Where you use it: Admins configure on knoad (Admin tab). Members finish their profile on knoad, then tap Request Entry in Discord.
New here? Sign in, open your Dashboard, and set up your profile. Running a server? Hit Get knoad in the nav first.
Get started
Two minutes, four steps, and you're in.
Sign in
1
Go to knoad.io and click Sign in with Discord - it's in the top-right corner or in the centre of the home page.2
Authorize knoad in the Discord window that opens. knoad reads your account name, avatar, email, and the servers you belong to - nothing else.3
You'll land on your Dashboard. Three tabs are waiting:- Profile - link wallets, email, and X.
- Rewards - see ARC balance and Tower entries.
- Admin - configure entry rules and analytics for your Discord server (only visible if you manage a server with knoad installed).
Add knoad to your Discord server
If you run a Discord server and want to use sweepr, holdr, givr, or bouncr, you need to install the knoad bot first.
1
Click Get knoad in the navigation bar.2
Choose your server from the Discord list and authorize the bot.3
Refresh your Dashboard - the Admin tab will now appear.
The bot runs inside Discord. After installation, use the slash commands or panels for each product directly in your server.
Tip
Already signed in? Jump straight to your Dashboard - the Profile tab is the best first stop.
Sign out and theme
To sign out: click your Discord avatar in the top-right corner of the nav, then confirm.
To switch between light and dark mode: use the sun/moon icon in the navigation bar.
Set up your profile
Wallet, email, X - wire them once and you're set for rewards, roles, and gated entry.
Connect a wallet (browser or extension)
1
Click Connect Wallet in the navigation bar.2
Pick your wallet (MetaMask, Rainbow, Coinbase Wallet, etc.) and approve the connection.3
Open the Profile tab on your Dashboard.4
Click Link Primary (connected) to attach this wallet to your knoad profile.5
Sign the message in your wallet. No transaction, no gas - just a one-time signature.
Tip
No gas fees here. You're only proving you own the address.
Link a hardware or cold storage wallet
Link a Ledger, Trezor, or offline wallet without connecting it to the site. Your wallet stays cold - only a one-time offline signature is required.
1
Click Link Primary (cold storage - sign offline), or Add cold storage for a secondary slot.2
Paste your wallet's 0x address and click Generate message.3
Copy the full message exactly as shown. Don't edit it.4
Sign on your hardware device:- Ledger: Ledger Live, or Rabby with your device connected.
- Trezor: Trezor Suite → Sign message.
- Other: move the message to your signing device and bring the signature back.
5
Paste the signature (starts with 0x) and click Verify & link.6
In Discord, run Verify Holdings so holdr picks up the new wallet.
Tip
Messages expire after 30 minutes. Timed out? Generate a fresh one and sign again.
Extra wallets
Up to 4 wallets total - 1 primary (used for rewards) and 3 secondary.
1
Click Add wallet and follow the connected or cold storage steps above.2
Make primary promotes a secondary wallet. Remove deletes one.
Verify your email
1
Enter your email on the Profile tab.2
Click Send code - check your inbox for a 6-digit code (5 min expiry).3
Enter the code and click Verify.
Connect X
1
Click Connect X on your Profile tab and authorize.2
Your handle, followers, and account age appear on your profile. Refresh or disconnect anytime from the buttons next to your handle.
Getting into a gated server
Sent here from Discord? Finish what's missing on your profile, then head back and tap Request Entryin the server's panel.
The actual gate check happens in Discord - knoad just helps you gather the credentials.
My wallet signature didn't work.
Sign the message exactly as shown - don't edit it. The signature should start with 0x. A mismatch usually means you signed with a different wallet than the address you pasted.
Expired? Generate a new message and try again.
It says my wallet is already linked.
Each address can only belong to one knoad profile. Reach out through your usual iLLuminary Labs channel if you need help sorting it out.
Understand your rewards
Buy or mint in a sweepr-tracked server and rewards follow - ARC to spend, Tower entries for the raffle.
Tip
The full tier tables are below if you want the numbers. The short version: bigger sales earn more.
ARC - your community currency
Think of ARC as points you can spend in the Illuminary ecosystem. On the Rewards tab you see two numbers:
Current ARC - the amount available to spend right now. Goes down when you use it.
Lifetime Sweepr ARC - everything you've ever earned from sweepr-tracked sales. This number never decreases.
When do you earn ARC?
ARC is credited when an NFT from a tracked collection sells on the secondary market or is minted (paid), and:
Payment is in ETH, Wrapped ETH (WETH), BETH, APE, or WAPE
The Discord server has 500+ members, OR the collection has an active Pro or Legend enrollment
Some collections pay double ARC at the same tier. Collections enrolled in Pro or Legend use the base rate only (no double).
Tower entries - raffle tickets
Tower entries are tickets in a platform-wide ETH raffle. You earn them on qualifying sales of 0.02 ETH or more:
Base entries - from the sale price (see table below)
Holder bonus - +1× base if you hold from any Pro or Legend enrolled collection
Legend sale bonus - +1× base if the collection sold is Legend-enrolled
Maximum of 20 entries per sale when both bonuses apply
Lightbind - free monthly entries
If you hold LASTG3N or Teruko NFTs and have an active Lightbound slot, you automatically receive free Tower entries at the start of each monthly drawing - no purchase required.
LASTG3N entries depend on how many you hold and how many Lightbound slots you have
Teruko entries stack on top of LASTG3N
Maximum of 20 free entries per month across both
Platform giveaway
When a platform-wide giveaway is active, the Rewards tab shows the title, prize, image, and total entry count. You'll also see whether you're currently entered.
Spend ARC and check your Tower entries
ARC and Tower entries are tracked by sweepr. Sales in servers that don't use sweepr won't generate rewards on knoad.
Manage your server
If you run a Discord server with knoad installed, the Admin tab is your command centre.
Tip
Don't see Admin? Install knoad with Get knoad in the nav, then refresh.
Pick your server
At the top of the Admin tab you'll see a list of your servers with knoad installed. Click any server to manage it. You'll see its current size tier and linked collections.
Server size tiers
Your server's size affects whether sweepr pays out ARC without a Pro or Legend enrollment. Established servers and above get ARC automatically.
Starter
Under 100 members
Growing
100 – 499 members
Established
500 – 999 members - ARC enabled without enrollment
Network
1,000+ members - ARC enabled without enrollment
Enroll a collection (Pro and Legend)
Enrolling a collection unlocks richer analytics and guarantees ARC rewards for your community regardless of server size.
Add your collection in Sweepr (Discord) first - it has to be tracked there before you can enroll it here.
1
In the Admin tab, open the enrollment section and pick your collection from the list.2
Choose a plan:- Pro - 0.03 ETH/month. Enables ARC for all server sizes plus Project Pulse analytics.
- Legend - 0.05 ETH/month. Everything in Pro, plus full holder, market, and audience analytics. Legend sales also give buyers bonus Tower entries.
3
Choose a term: 1, 3, or 6 months.4
Review the total and click Review quote.5
Connect your wallet - it must be on the Base network.6
Click Pay & activate. Enrollment is confirmed on-chain and takes effect immediately.
Set entry requirements (Bouncr)
Bouncr lets you decide exactly who can enter your server or events. You pick the checks; applicants must pass them all.
1
In the Admin tab, scroll to the Bouncr section.2
Enable and configure the checks you want:Discord account
- Require a custom Discord profile picture
- Minimum Discord account age (set in days)
- Must be a member of a specific Discord server
Email

3
Click Save requirements.
Saving rules on knoad stores them. To post the entry panel in a channel, publish from Discord using Sweepr.
See who's getting in (Bouncr analytics)
Once Bouncr is active, scroll down in the Admin tab to see a live summary:
Attempts - total people who tried to enter
Granted - how many passed all checks
Denied - how many were turned away, and the most common reason
Conversion rate - the percentage of successful entries
Project analytics (Pro and Legend)
Pro - Project Pulse: sales volume, mint activity, ARC credited, Tower entries generated, and delivery health. Filter by Today, 7 days, 30 days, or All time.
Legend - full dashboards: everything in Pro, plus market overlap, holder growth, audience composition, and connection networks.
Common questions
My wallet signature didn't work.
Make sure you signed the message exactly as shown - don't edit it. The signature should start with 0x. If it doesn't match, you likely signed with a different wallet than the address you pasted.
Messages expire after 30 minutes. Generate a new one and sign again using the exact address you entered on knoad.
It says my wallet is already linked.
Each wallet address can only be on one knoad profile at a time. This error means that address is already attached to a different Discord account. Reach out through your usual iLLuminary Labs support channel to resolve it.
I don't see the Admin tab.
The Admin tab only appears if you're an admin on a Discord server that has knoad installed. Two things to check:
1
Click Get knoad in the nav bar to install the bot if you haven't already.2
If knoad is already installed, try signing out and back in with Discord to refresh your server list.
I can't enroll my collection.
Enrollment requires the collection to already be tracked in Sweepr. Add your collection using the Sweepr Discord bot first - once it's tracked there, it will appear in the enrollment selector on knoad.
Why didn't I get ARC for a sale?
ARC requires a few conditions to be met. Check each of these:
1
The sale was paid in an accepted token: ETH, Wrapped ETH (WETH), BETH, APE, or WAPE. Other payment types don't qualify.2
Your Discord server has 500+ members, OR the collection has an active Pro or Legend enrollment on knoad.3
The collection is tracked by sweepr in your server. Sales in untracked collections don't generate rewards.
Discord says I need to reconnect.
Head to your Dashboard - you may see a Reconnect Discord button at the top of the Admin tab. Click it and re-authorize. This refreshes your server list and permission data.
I don't see a giveaway in my Rewards tab.
The Rewards tab only shows a giveaway when one is currently active on the platform. If nothing is showing, there isn't a live giveaway at the moment - check back later.
How do I publish a Bouncr entry panel in Discord?
Saving your requirements on knoad stores the rules - it doesn't post anything in Discord. To actually publish the entry panel in a channel, use the Sweepr bot in Discord. From there you can choose the channel and post the panel.
