Join Aephia
Become part of the #1 ship manufacturing guild in Star Atlas, with branches in all three factions. It takes three steps: join our Discord, apply for membership, and verify your wallet.
STEP 1/3
Join our Discord
First, hop onto our Discord server — the heart of our community, where all the fun stuff happens:
Join our DiscordOnce you get there, you start your journey with the role of a Spacefarer, a proud new citizen of the Star Atlas metaverse. You will be granted immediate access to all public channels on our Discord. To become a full member of our organization and unlock our private channels, it is now time to apply for a membership.
STEP 2/3
Become a member
Applying for a membership is easy — sign in with your Discord account and answer a few short questions, and you get the role of an Aephian, which grants you further access to our Discord channels. It takes about three minutes.
Still deciding whether Aephia is for you? Read who we are and how we play.
Apply for membershipOnce you’ve sent it, our community experts will review your application and get back to you on Discord on short notice! Feel free to roam the public channels in the meantime and don't hesitate to ask questions or contact our mods or community experts regarding your application.
Once your application is approved, you will be assigned the role of a true Aephian! Congratulations!
But wait — there is more! You want full access to every available channel and all future features of Aephia? Then let's get you ready for the future and verify your Star Atlas wallet!
STEP 3/3
Verify your wallet
Last step: link your Solana wallet to your Discord account with AstralPass, the verification tool we built for Star Atlas guilds (read why we built it). It proves the wallet is really yours, so we can confirm you're part of Aephia in-game as well as on Discord — and it earns you the Verified Aephian role.
- In our Discord, type
/verify(or/join— they do the same). The AstralPass bot replies with a message only you can see, and a link to get verified.
- On AstralPass, log in with Discord, then connect your Solana wallet. Your wallet asks you to sign a message: it happens off-chain, costs nothing, and you never share your private keys. Link the wallet you play Star Atlas with. Have several? Link them all — AstralPass checks every one.

Using a Ledger or another hardware wallet? That works too — you'll just confirm the signature on the device. The AstralPass guide on hardware wallets covers the details.
- Back in Discord, run
/verifyonce more. The reply checks three things: Discord — your membership was approved in step 2; Wallet — your wallet is linked; and DAC — you've applied to the Aephia Industries DAC in-game and been accepted. With all three ticked you get the Verified Aephian role. If one is still missing, the reply tells you which, with a button showing you the way.

Once your wallet is linked, AstralPass also gives you a dashboard of what it found in your wallets — your player profiles, Star Atlas governance votes and more. You can add more wallets there at any time; run /verify again afterwards.

Stuck? Try the AstralPass troubleshooting guide, or ask any of our mods in Discord.
