How to buy and redeem PUBG Mobile gift cards without the usual headaches
Why people fumble UC purchases
You finish a squad match, decide you want the new pass, and then spend twenty minutes trying to figure out where to buy Unknown Cash without overpaying or waiting on a slow payment gateway. I've watched this happen enough times to know the friction points. The purchase itself is simple once you know the denominations and the redemption flow, but nobody explains it clearly.
That's what this guide is for.
What UC actually gets you
Unknown Cash, or UC, is the in-game currency PUBG Mobile uses for everything that costs real money. You spend it on the Royale Pass, crates, character outfits, weapon skins, and limited-time bundles. If something in the shop has a price tag next to it rather than a silver or gold coin icon, UC is what you need.
One thing to keep in mind. UC you redeem from a gift card lands in the account you specify, and it stays there. You can't transfer it between accounts after the fact. So if you play on two accounts, pick the right one before you redeem.
Denominations available on our store
We carry the standard PUBG Mobile gift card values. Here's what you'll find and roughly what each one costs in USD.
- 60 UC for about 1 USD
- 325 UC for about 5 USD
- 660 UC for about 9 USD
- 1800 UC for about 23 USD
- 3850 UC for about 47 USD
- 8100 UC for about 94 USD
- 24300 UC for about 281 USD
- 40500 UC for about 469 USD
The smaller cards make sense if you just need a top-up for a single pass or a specific skin. The larger ones are for players who buy crates regularly or want to stock up during seasonal events when the shop rotates good items in.
How to buy a PUBG Mobile gift card from us
The purchase flow on our store is the standard choose, pay, and receive a code by email process. Nothing exotic.
- Go to the PUBG Mobile gift card product page on our store.
- Pick the denomination you want from the options listed above.
- Add it to your cart and proceed to checkout.
- Complete payment using your preferred method.
- Check your email for the redemption code, which arrives shortly after payment confirms.
If the email doesn't show up within a few minutes, check your spam folder first. If it's still not there, write to support@blinkcodes.com and include your order number so we can track it down quickly.
How to redeem the code in PUBG Mobile
This is the part where people sometimes get confused because the redemption page lives outside the game itself. You don't enter the code inside the PUBG Mobile app. You use the official Midasbuy redemption site, which is the platform Tencent uses for UC code redemptions across regions.
- Open a browser and go to the Midasbuy redemption page for PUBG Mobile.
- Select your region or country so the system routes the UC to the correct server.
- Enter your PUBG Mobile character ID, which you can find in your in-game profile.
- Type or paste the gift card code from your email into the redemption field.
- Complete any verification step the page asks for, such as a captcha.
- Confirm the redemption and wait for the success message.
- Open PUBG Mobile and check your UC balance at the top of the screen.
The UC usually appears within a minute or two. During peak hours or major event launches, it can take a bit longer, but if you don't see it after fifteen minutes, that's when you should reach out rather than keep refreshing.
Common mistakes to avoid
The single most common error is entering the wrong character ID. Your character ID is a string of numbers, not your in-game name. A lot of players type their nickname into the redemption field, get an error, and assume the code is broken. It isn't. Pull the ID from your profile screen and use that.
Another frequent issue is region mismatch. If your account is registered in one region and you select a different one on the redemption page, the system may reject the code or, worse, apply it to the wrong server. Double-check before you hit confirm.
Finally, don't share your code with anyone claiming they'll redeem it for you. There's no reason a third party needs your code. You can do the entire redemption yourself in under two minutes.
A quick note on timing
If you're buying UC specifically for a Royale Pass reset or a limited-time crate drop, buy the card a day or two ahead. Payment processing, email delivery, and redemption all work fast under normal conditions, but stacking them against a countdown timer is unnecessary stress. Get the code early, redeem it when you're ready, and spend it on your schedule.
That's the whole process. Pick a denomination, buy the card, redeem on Midasbuy with your character ID, and the UC shows up in your account.
