Anvil Supporter: tiers and perks
Anvil Supporter is a personal subscription that pays for Anvil’s servers. It comes in three tiers, each with everything the one below has. Every perk is looks or hosting room: tracking, events, scoring and your own stats stay free for everyone, and nothing here changes what an event counts.
The three tiers
#Prices are on the Anvil Supporter page, /supporter. A yearly plan costs ten months.
Under Settings → Supporter you get an invite link. When a friend you invited pays, you earn free months; the reward lands two weeks after their first payment. Time earned this way gives every perk of its tier except clan boosts.
What each tier gets
#The same table as on the Supporter page, plus the chat perks.

| Friend events (at once · players) | Join only | 1 · 10 | 1 · 25 | 2 · 50 |

Under Settings → In-game chat there are three more: your own chat feed colours (Supporter), choosing what your login brief covers (Champion), and a star by your name in other players’ chat feeds (Patron).
Name colours
#Set them under Settings → Supporter, in Your name’s look. The preview shows your name on a dark background and on a light one.
Start with Your Anvil display name, the name on your Discord-linked account, and press Save. Reset to default goes back to your tier’s colours. Under Your RuneScape characters, keep Same as my Anvil name or choose A separate look for my characters, which opens an editor for one look on all of them. To give one character its own look, pick it under Customize per character. Its editor opens on its own, and Use the default puts it back.
The site, the plugin panel and Discord are dark; the game’s solid chatbox is light. Anvil adjusts your colours so they stay readable on each. If you want a different look on one of them, switch on Set a separate look for dark backgrounds or for light backgrounds. That look is shown exactly as you picked it, with no contrast fix, and the preview warns you when it is hard to read.
Where your flair shows
#Your colours and the star go wherever your name does:
Colours show only on characters the plugin has confirmed are yours, on the site and in game. To keep them off your names in other people’s game chat, untick Show my colours on my characters’ names in game chat under Settings → Supporter.
Avatar, banner and display case
#All three are under Settings → Profile look.
Friend events, head-to-head and chat
#The perks that give you more room to play, rather than a look:
Paying, changing and cancelling
#Anvil Supporter is billed through Gumroad, monthly or yearly.
- Sign in on Anvil and open
/supporter. - Press Choose Supporter, Choose Champion or Choose Patron. Gumroad’s checkout opens, with monthly or yearly billing.
- Pay. Your perks switch on as soon as Gumroad tells Anvil, and your tier shows on the Supporter page as Your tier.
To change tier, use Change tier under Settings → Supporter. To cancel or update your card, use Manage on Gumroad there. A cancelled membership keeps every perk until the end of the term you paid for.
The Choose button carries a code that tells Anvil which account paid. Anvil never matches a payment by email, so buying from Gumroad directly, without that button, leaves the payment unlinked. If that happened, ask in the Anvil Discord and staff can attach it to your account by hand.
Moving down or stopping
#Nothing you set is deleted. Every perk is checked against the tier you have right now, so it switches off on its own and comes back as soon as you renew.
Staff can give someone a higher tier for a while, for example as a thank-you. It sits on top of what you pay and never changes your subscription. Settings → Supporter shows A gift from Anvil and when it ends; after that you are back on your paid tier. A gift only gives clan boost slots when staff include them.
Everything here is set on the website under Settings → Supporter, Profile look and Clan boosts. For boosts in detail, see Boosting a clan. For where your colours show in RuneLite, see The side panel, tab by tab. Money questions: Refunds and Terms.
