Genshin Impact officials provide redeem codes to the community every now and then. Redeeming these codes is a great way to claim additional rewards such as Primogems, Mora, and many more. Launching the game multiple times to claim redeem codes is a time-consuming and unnecessary affair.

Fortunately, there's a way to redeem codes without having to launch the game, making the process significantly easier. HoYoverse officials have created a dedicated site where players can enter their redemption codes and claim rewards. Players will have to visit the official Genshin Impact website to find this dedicated redemption option. This article will outline all of the necessary steps that players must know to redeem codes from the official redemption site.


A guide to redeeming codes outside the game using Genshin Impact's official redemption site

In the past, there have been multiple occasions where Genshin Impact officials have handed out redeem codes. Here are some common instances where redeem codes are usually shared:

  • During livestream
  • After launch of new updates
  • Web-events or Prime Gaming bundles

Redeeming these codes grants free in-game rewards including Primogems, Mora, Mystic Enhancement Ores, and more. Although players can use the in-game redemption feature to redeem codes, this process takes more time and can be inconvenient when players are traveling or don't have access to their primary device.

For this reason, HoYoverse has come up with a dedicated redemption site that can be visited directly or through Genshin Impact's official website. To redeem codes using the official redemption site, follow these simple instructions:

STEP 1: Visit the official Genshin Impact website
