# invite the bot

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

## Go to the ZoomiesCore homepage

Click **Continue with Discord** (or **Add to Discord** if you're logged in already).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Review Discord permissions

Discord will show a permissions prompt. Leave every permission checked — trimming them mid-invite tends to break AutoMod, Tickets and Backups in subtle ways. You can always refine role-based permissions later inside Discord.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Choose your server

Pick the server you want the bot in and hit **Authorize**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Complete the CAPTCHA

Complete the Discord CAPTCHA if prompted.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Once the bot is in your server it comes online within \~5 seconds and you can immediately use every non-premium slash command. The dashboard picks up the new guild the moment you refresh.

## Multiple servers

You can invite the bot to as many servers as you want. Each server gets its own settings, its own economy, its own leveling, its own moderation state — none of it is shared across servers.

Premium, however, is per-user and applies to **one server at a time**. See [Premium activate & transfer](https://zoomiescore.gitbook.io/zoomiescore-docs/docs/premium/activate-and-transfer).

## What roles does the bot need?

The invite creates a `ZoomiesCore` role. Drag it **above** any role you want the bot to be able to moderate (kick, ban, timeout, role add/remove, etc.). Discord blocks the bot from acting on anyone with an equal-or-higher role than its own — that's a Discord rule, not a bot bug.
