Hi there,

 

Thanks for coming to the Community.

 

I recommend reaching out to Support so that they can look into it. Make sure to prepare pictures of the front and back side of the Gift Card.

 

You can reach Spotify Support through this page.

 

I hope this helps 🙂

Hey @waltz123,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community and welcome. 

 

If the PIN is not working when you try to redeem it, it could be related to different factors. First, we'd recommend making sure you've entered the correct characters. Since you mentioned that a zero looks like a capital 'O', a capital 'I' looks like a number one, or a capital "S" looks like a number five, we'd recommend testing with these other characters to see if it makes any difference.


Also, remember that the gift card must have been purchased in the same country where you are currently located and also match the country of your account. So we'd also recommend making sure that the country registered in your account is the correct one. 

 

Note: Keep in mind that after some attempts, you can also get an error message. If you do, you can try again after 24 hours.


Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.
