Genshin Impact codes can be redeemed in two ways: through the official HoYoverse website or directly in-game. Both methods take under a minute. You'll need an active Genshin Impact account at Adventure Rank 10 or above.
Redeem via the HoYoverse Website
- Visit the official gift page at genshin.hoyoverse.com/en/gift — or click "Redeem" on any code at GenshinCo.de, which pre-fills the code.
- Log in with your HoYoverse account.
- Select your server region (America, Europe, Asia, or TW/HK/MO).
- Choose the character you want to receive rewards on.
- Paste or type the code and click Redeem.
Rewards appear in your in-game mailbox within a few minutes.
Redeem In-Game
- Open the game and press Esc (PC) or tap the Paimon menu.
- Go to Settings (gear icon).
- Select the Account tab.
- Click "Redeem Now" and enter the code.
This method doesn't require a browser and works on all platforms.
Common Errors and How to Fix Them
- "Redemption code has been used" — Each code can only be used once per account.
- "Redemption code has expired" — Most codes expire within 12-48 hours. Check our Code History page for details on typical expiration windows.
- "Redemption code is invalid" — Double-check for typos; codes are case-sensitive.
- "Adventure Rank is not high enough" — You need at least AR 10 to redeem codes. See our Beginner's Guide for tips on leveling up quickly.
- "Server region mismatch" — Make sure you selected the correct server.
