Requirements are the rules to qualify members for a role. Guild offers a wide range of requirements to choose from across 25+ chains and 30+ applications.  Requirements can be off- and onchain and as simple as connecting wallet addresses, being on allowlists, having a Discord role, or holding a single token.

Requirements are composable, allowing for logical reasoning across any number of them, regardless of whether they are on the same chain or stem from the same source. They are visible and editable for every Guild admin at any point.

NFTs are great for creating a sense of membership in your community. They can help identify, curate, and mark members on their journeys, highlighting your biggest and longest supporters.

NFTs don't have to be solely about financial incentives. There are many ways you can give utility to an NFT. For example, you can use it as a requirement to grant access or abilities to holders through Guild.

ERC-721 and ERC-1155 tokens are both supported.

Native coins and ERC-20 tokens are yet another powerful assets for building communities onchain. Tokens are commonly used for sharing ownership of entities and communities, but they can also have utility beyond financial incentives.
​
There are many ways you can give further utility to tokens, for example you can use them by amounts held on addresses or with a range of min-max intervals to target and activate your members.

Allowlists are a free way to manage membership tiers within the community even without launching a token or dropping an NFT.

Allowlists can be used to identify early adopters, build onchain governance without tokens, plan future airdrops, and more at the different stages of your community. Combining it with blockchain assets, made communities like @FWBtweets possible. But it’s not just for developers to use it effectively anymore.

Grant access or abilities by a simple requirement of being included in a list. Manage special access and roles safely with fully customizable allowlists, where you are in full control over who gets to be in your community.

Custom contract queries let you retrieve data from smart contracts. You can use them to get specific variable values or execute functions in a smart contract, like LP staking.

On any supported chain, "READ" functions are listed for all contracts, verified on Etherscan. Otherwise, you can manually input contract query data.

This requirement supports proxy contracts, which means that if a user specifies a contract address that has an implementation contract, all the available methods from that contract are listed on Guild.
