Livestream codes are the most time-sensitive codes in Genshin Impact — they typically only last 12 to 24 hours from the moment they are revealed. The best way to catch them is to watch the Special Program livestream live on YouTube or Twitch, or to follow the official Genshin Impact social media accounts where the codes are posted in real time. We also add them here the moment they are confirmed, so bookmarking this page is a reliable backup if you miss the broadcast.

How To Redeem Codes — The Fast Way Through The Official Website

The quickest and easiest way to redeem Genshin Impact codes is through the official HoYoverse redemption website. Here is the exact process:

Step 1 — Go to genshin.hoyoverse.com/en/gift in your browser.

Step 2 — Log into your HoYoverse account. If you play on PC through the launcher, your login details are the same.

Step 3 — Select your server from the dropdown — Asia, America, Europe, or TW/HK/MO — this must match the server your account is on, or the code will not work.

Step 4 — Copy a code from the table above and paste it into the redemption box.

Step 5 — Click Redeem.

Step 6 — Open your in-game mailbox to collect your rewards. They arrive within a few minutes of redemption.

One important thing — you can only redeem each code once per account. If you share an account with someone and they have already redeemed a code, you will get an error message when you try. Also, make sure you select the correct server before redeeming. A code redeemed on the wrong server cannot be transferred, and the rewards will not arrive in your account.

How To Redeem Codes From Inside The Game

If you prefer to redeem codes without leaving the game, you can do it directly through the in-game settings menu. Here is how:

Step 1 — Open the Paimon Menu by tapping the Paimon icon in the top left corner of the screen.

Step 2 — Go to Settings.

Step 3 — Select Account from the settings menu.

Step 4 — Tap Redeem Code.

Step 5 — Type your code into the input field and tap Exchange.

Step 6 — Your rewards will arrive in your in-game mailbox within a few minutes.

One thing to note — the in-game redemption method is not available on iOS. If you play on iPhone or iPad, you will need to use the website method instead. The website method works on all platforms and devices, so it is the safer option if you are ever unsure.

What These Codes Actually Give You — Is It Worth Bothering?

Yes, it is always worth bothering. Here is a quick breakdown of what the current active codes add up to if you redeem all five of them. The three Primogem codes give you 200 Primogems total — that is one and a quarter pulls toward your next character. The FAIRYGIRLLINNEA code gives you 30 more Primogems plus 3 Tattered Warrants, which are a newer currency tied to specific banner mechanics. GENSHINGIFT adds 50 Primogems and three Hero’s Wit books, which contribute to levelling your characters.

In total across all five active codes right now, you are looking at 200 Primogems, 10 Hero’s Wit, a batch of Adventurer’s Experience books, upgrade materials, food items, and Mora. The Primogems alone represent meaningful progress toward a pull on any current banner, and the levelling materials genuinely help, especially if you are still building your first few characters. As a newer player, these codes are some of the most impactful free resources you can claim, and they take less than five minutes to redeem across all five.

How To Get More Genshin Impact Codes — The Complete Guide

Knowing where codes come from is as important as knowing the codes themselves because it lets you catch them the moment they go live rather than finding them days later when they have already expired. Here are all the places HoYoverse releases codes.

Version Special Programs — Every new version of Genshin Impact gets a Special Program livestream about two weeks before the update launches. Three codes with 300 total Primogems are always released during this broadcast. These are the highest value codes in the game, and they expire within 24 hours. Watch the stream live or check this page the moment it airs.

HoYoLAB and Social Media — HoYoverse occasionally releases codes through their official HoYoLAB community platform, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Following all of these accounts is the most reliable way to catch codes that are not tied to a specific broadcast event.

Collaborations and Milestones — When Genshin reaches a major player milestone or runs a collaboration with another brand or media property, codes are sometimes released as part of the celebration. These are less predictable but worth watching for.

In-Game Events — Some limited-time events include redeem codes as part of their reward structure. Checking the Events menu regularly means you will not miss these.

All Expired Genshin Impact Codes — Full List

The list below covers every expired code we have on record. None of these work anymore. If you see any of them being shared elsewhere as active codes, the source is either outdated or deliberately misleading. Do not waste time trying expired codes — only the ones in the active table at the top of this article are working right now.

(This list covers the most notable expired codes — there are many more that have cycled through since the game launched in 2020)

Final Tips — Maximise Your Free Primogems

Redeem codes are just one part of the free Primogem ecosystem in Genshin Impact,t and they work best when combined with your other daily sources. Do your four Daily Commissions every day — that is 60 Primogems per day just for completing short tasks, which adds up to over 1,800 per month. Spend your Original Resin every day before it caps at 160. Complete every active event before it ends. Open every Chest you find while exploring. Check the mail regularly because HoYoverse occasionally sends free items directly to your inbox as compensation or celebration rewards.

Codes specifically are most valuable when redeemed immediately — the moment you see a new code appear on this page, on social media, or in a livestream, redeem it before you do anything else. The five minutes it takes to redeem all active codes is the most efficient Primogem income per minute available in the entire game. Bookmark this page, check back after every version update and Special Program broadcast, and you will never miss a free pull contribution again. We update this article the moment any new code is confirmed working, or any existing code expires.
