How do I activate a Battle.net code?

Activating a Battle.net code—whether for full games, in-game items, or Battle.net Balance—can be completed via the Battle.net Desktop App or a web browser. Most Battle.net codes are region-locked, so be sure yours matches your Battle.net account region.

Key Rules & Region Lock Warning

• Region Compatibility: Battle.net keys are region-restricted (e.g., US, EU, Asia) and must match your account region.
• Code Structure: Battle.net keys are typically 20 characters long.
• Gameflip Guarantee: The Gameflip Guarantee does not cover codes purchased for the wrong account region.

Option 1: Redeem via Battle.net Desktop App

1. Open and log in to the Battle.net Desktop App.
2. Click your Profile Name / BattleTag in the top-right corner.
3. Select Redeem Code from the dropdown menu.
4. Type or paste your 20-character code into the field and click Redeem Code.

Option 2: Redeem via Web Browser

1. Go to account.battle.net and log in to your account.
2. Navigate to Account Overview.
3. In the Redeem a Code field, enter your key.
4. Click Redeem Code to apply the item or balance to your account.

Troubleshooting Redemption Errors

If you see an error when redeeming a Battle.net code, check the following:

• Region Mismatch: Your Battle.net account region matches the code’s region.
• Typographical Errors: The code was entered correctly without extra spaces or characters.
• Already Claimed: The code hasn’t been used previously or expired.

Need Help with a Non-Working Code?

If your code matches your account region but displays an "Invalid or Already Used" error, go to your Gameflip Purchase Page, click Hold Transaction, and open a dispute to notify the seller and hold auto-completion.

If you still have trouble activating your code, contact Gameflip Support with your Order ID and the code details.
