If you’ve ever been part of a Free Fire guild that’s stuck on the same level for months, you know how frustrating it is to watch other groups unlock exclusive skins, custom room privileges, and leaderboard spots while your crew barely moves the needle. Most guild leaders assume you need a roster full of pro players or deep pockets for diamond donations to level up fast, but that’s not true at all. After testing dozens of strategies across three top 100 regional guilds over the past year, we’ve narrowed down the most effective steps that work for casual and competitive groups alike. This guide breaks down exactly how to increase guild level in Free Fire without burning out your members or forcing people to spend real money on the game.
Max Out Daily and Weekly Guild Quests for Steady XP Gains
Guild quests are the most consistent, low-effort source of guild XP available, and far too many groups overlook them in favor of chasing one-time diamond donation boosts. Every day, the game refreshes 4 daily guild quests for all members, and each completed quest contributes XP directly to your guild’s total level progress, no spending required. You don’t need to be a top-ranked player to finish most of these quests either, which makes them perfect for casual members who only log in for a couple of matches a day.
Common daily quests that give the highest XP include playing 3 matches with at least one other guild member, donating 1000 gold, finishing in the top 10 of a battle royale match, and using 2 in-game items during a guild squad match. Each of these quests gives between 150 and 300 XP, so a single member can contribute up to 1000 guild XP a day just by knocking out their daily task list. If you have 40 active members, that’s 40,000 XP a week from daily quests alone, enough to push most guilds from level 4 to level 5 in just one week.
Weekly guild quests give 5x the XP of daily ones, so make sure you prioritize these as a group. Quests like “play 20 matches with 4+ guild members” or “earn 100 total kills across all guild squads” can give up to 1200 XP each, and they reset every Monday. I’ve seen guilds gain two full levels in a single week just by syncing up to finish their weekly quests before the reset, no extra donations required. You can even make it fun by posting quest reminders in your guild chat and giving a small shoutout to members who finish 90% of their quests each week.
That means you don’t have to hound people to play for hours every day to make progress. Even casual members who only play 3 matches a day can contribute a huge amount to your guild level if they focus on finishing their quests first before jumping into random ranked matches.
How to Increase Guild Level in Free Fire With Strategic Gold and Diamond Donations
Donations are the second biggest source of guild XP, but there’s a right and wrong way to approach them if you want to level up fast without alienating your free-to-play members. First, let’s break down the math: every 10 gold donated gives 1 guild XP, and every diamond donated gives 10 guild XP. Each member can donate up to 5000 gold a day, which works out to 500 XP per member per day for free, no real money spent. Diamond donations give more XP per contribution, but pressuring F2P players to spend money will only make them leave, which costs you more XP long term than the one-time boost from a few diamonds.
Donation best practices start with setting clear, reasonable expectations for all members. For F2P players, ask them to max out their daily gold donations if they can, and recognize their contributions the same way you would recognize diamond donations from paying players. For members who do spend money on the game, let them know that occasional diamond donations are appreciated, but never required to stay in the guild. I once joined a guild that kicked 12 members in one week for failing to donate 100 diamonds a month, and within three weeks, that guild dropped 200 spots on the regional leaderboard because they lost all their most active quest completers. Don’t make that same mistake.
You also get a hidden bonus 100 guild XP every day if 80% of your active members donate at least 1000 gold. That’s an extra 700 XP a week for almost no effort, so it’s worth sending a quick chat reminder each evening for members to drop their daily gold donation if they haven’t already. Many players forget about donations entirely until they see a reminder, so a quick nudge can make a huge difference in your weekly XP totals.
If you’re a new guild just starting out, don’t stress about diamond donations at all for the first 3 levels. Focus on getting all your members to max their daily gold donations and finish their quests, and you’ll level up faster than guilds that chase small diamond boosts from a tiny handful of paying players.
Run Regular Guild Events to Earn Bulk XP Bonuses
Once you have a consistent core of 20+ active members, guild events are the fastest way to earn massive chunks of XP in a short amount of time. In-game events like Guild Clash, Guild Tournament, and weekly guild battle royale modes give XP payouts for both participation and wins, and you can earn up to 10,000 XP in a single weekend from these events if you plan properly. You don’t need a full roster of pro players to get these rewards either, even teams of casual players can earn participation XP that adds up fast.
Guild Clash events give up to 5000 XP per win if you’re in the silver bracket or higher, so even winning 2 matches a week gives more XP than 10 members maxing their daily donations for a full day. The biggest mistake most guilds make with events is only inviting their top 10 highest KD players to join. This cuts you off from participation XP from all your other active members, and it alienates newer players who might become your strongest players over time. Even if a team of newer players loses all their matches, each game they play contributes a small amount of XP to your guild total, so it’s always better to let as many people join as possible.
To get the most XP out of every guild event, follow these simple steps every time you sign up:
- Schedule events 3 days in advance via guild announcement, so members can block off time to join and avoid conflicts with work, school, or other plans
- Assign team captains for each 4-person squad to coordinate loadouts and drop spots, reducing match losses from miscommunication and giving newer players a clear leader to follow
- Offer small in-game perks like custom room access or a temporary guild admin badge for the top 3 performing players each event to boost participation and make it feel rewarding for everyone
- Even if you lose most matches, every participation point adds to your guild XP total, so encourage even casual players who only play a couple of matches a week to join instead of only inviting your top 10 ranked players
For example, my current guild runs a Guild Clash event every Saturday, and we usually split 32 members into 8 teams of 4, regardless of their rank. We usually win around half our matches, and we earn an average of 7000 XP per event, which is enough to push us through half a level every single week. We’ve had members with KD ratios as low as 0.8 join these events and end up being our top performers, so don’t write off casual players just because they don’t have a high rank.
Optimize Your Guild Roster to Cut Down on Wasted XP Potential
Even if you’re doing everything else right, a roster full of inactive members will slow down your level progress to a crawl. Most guilds have a max capacity of 50 members, and every spot taken by an inactive player is a spot you could fill with an active player who contributes XP every day. The key here is to be fair about roster cleanouts, so you don’t kick people who are just on a temporary break from the game.
Inactive members (who don’t log in for 7+ days) contribute 0 XP, so removing them to make space for active players is one of the fastest ways to boost your level gains. Before you do a roster cleanout, send a guild announcement 3 days in advance letting members know that anyone who hasn’t logged in for 7 days will be removed to make space for new active players. This gives people who are on vacation, busy with school, or taking a short break a chance to log in once to keep their spot. You’d be surprised how many people come back after seeing that reminder, and it keeps you from losing active members who just needed a little time off.
When recruiting new members, prioritize players who mention they play 3+ times a week, not just players with high KD ratios. A player with a 1.2 KD who logs in every day and completes all their quests will contribute more XP over a month than a 4.0 KD pro who only logs in once a week to play ranked. You can set your guild join requirements to automatically reject players who have less than 10 hours of total playtime, which filters out smurfs or one-time players who will leave after a day.
You also don’t need to fill all 50 spots right away if you’re a new guild. It’s better to have 25 fully active members who complete all their quests and donate every day than 50 members where only 10 are active. As your guild levels up and gains more perks, you’ll attract more active players naturally, so don’t rush to fill spots just to hit max capacity.
At the end of the day, there’s no secret hack to leveling up your Free Fire guild fast. It all comes down to consistent small efforts from all your members, and building a community where people want to log in and contribute every day. I helped a small guild of 15 casual players go from level 3 to level 8 in 6 weeks using these exact steps, so don’t discount small guilds either – as you grow, your XP gains will snowball faster than you expect. If you focus on quests, fair donation rules, inclusive events, and an active roster, you’ll figure out how to increase guild level in Free Fire faster than most of the other groups on your regional leaderboard, and you’ll have fun doing it.
