▪ Possible problems with changing your code

1. Invalid code

That error may appear if the code was incorrectly written or if there's a temporary problem with Nintendo's system.

👉 solution:
Check that you entered all the characters correctly.
If the bug goes on, wait a few hours and try again: often the system gets up to date.


2. The code's been redeemed.

It can be if the page stayed loaded and did not show you confirmation.

👉 solution:
Check your subscriptions from your Nintendo Account here

If she doesn't show up, contact Nintendo's official support and request code verification.


3. Wrong region

Nintendo's code requires your account to be set up in the same region as the code (for example: Estados Unidos, Europa, Mexico).

👉 solution:
Check your region here:https://accounts.nintendo.com/profile
If it doesn't match, you have to put your account back to the right region.
(No VPN required)


4. challenges with payment method or outstanding balance

Although unusual, if your account has failed payment attempts or an outstanding billing prior subscription, you may be unable to exchange a new code.
