Why is my GOG code not working?

 

What if you followed the steps accurately, but your key is still not working?

The problem may be in entering the key.

The codes are 18 digit characters long with both numbers and letters mixed.

XX123XXX456XXXX789

Recheck the code and make sure that you don’t miss any digit.

Also, make sure that you are able to differentiate your 0 (zero) and O, Q and D (letter), 1 and the capital letter i, B and 8, G and 6… and so on.
