Originally they only made money by selling a service called Discord Nitro. It allows you to upload larger files/share your screen in a higher resolution, use servers' emojis in any other server, use an animated avatar, and further customize your username. Since they added the store, they've also started giving games to Nitro members, doubled the price of Nitro, and offered an option without the free games at the original price.
