🔗 How to Link Discord to MW4
Linking connects your Discord account to your Activision account. Activision says it's "adding new Discord features to Call of Duty," starting with your Discord friends list and invites inside the game.
- Sign in to the Activision account you play Call of Duty with.
- Open Account Linking.
- Select Discord.
- Sign in to the Discord account you want to use and select Authorize.
- Restart the game so the link takes effect.
On PC, you can also link from the Discord tab in the game's Social menu.
Beta players: link again
If you linked Discord during the MW4 beta, the old link doesn't carry over. Activision says "you will need to link your account again to access these functionalities."
Your Calling Card from the beta is already in your inventory. You also get 1 hour of Double XP and 1 hour of Double Weapon XP.

⚠️ Don't Buy MW4 Discord Codes
Discord reward codes are already being resold on marketplaces. Buying them is risky. Codes can be used already, region-locked or fake, and you have no way to get your money back.
Every reward above is free. Get them from Discord and redeem only at callofduty.com/redeem. Ignore DMs offering "free MW4 codes" with a login link.
