RuneScape Gift Card

What Is a RuneScape Gift Card?

A RuneScape gift card (RuneScape Membership Card) is a prepaid balance code issued by Jagex. When you redeem the card to your account, you decide how to use the balance. This flexibility is its biggest advantage over fixed-term subscription codes.

The card is also the most common way to become a member without a credit card. It doesn't start an auto-renewing subscription, so there's no risk of forgetting to cancel.

What Can You Turn the Card Into?

• Membership: Unlocks the members-only world of the game. Membership gives you access to extra maps, skills, quests and items.
• Bond: An item that can be traded in-game. You can use it yourself and convert it into membership, give it to another player, or use it in the in-game economy.
• RuneCoins: Used to buy cosmetic items, outfits and animations from Solomon's General Store. These are visual items that don't affect game balance.

The Difference Between Membership and Bonds

If you choose membership directly, the time is added to your account instantly and you're done. If you choose a Bond, you get an item you can carry in-game; you can convert it into membership any time, gift it to a friend, or use it in the player economy. For players who want flexibility and are into in-game trading, a Bond is more useful than direct membership.

How to Use a RuneScape Card

1. Go to runescape.com/redeem.
2. Log in with your Jagex account.
3. Enter the card PIN code you bought from Knightpin in the field provided.
4. Choose to use the balance as Membership, Bond or RuneCoins and confirm.

With the membership and RuneCoins options, the balance is applied to your account instantly. If you choose a Bond, the item is added to your inventory and used in-game.

Should I Buy 10 USD or 25 USD?

• 10 USD: Good for returning players, those who want to try membership for a short time, or those who only want RuneCoins for cosmetics.
• 25 USD: The lower cost-per-unit option for those who want longer membership or more than one Bond. If you plan to trade Bonds in the in-game economy, this package gives you more flexibility.

The conversion rate of the cards' USD value into membership days or number of Bonds is set by Jagex and updated from time to time; you'll see the current value on the redeem screen when you redeem the code.

What to Keep in Mind When Buying

The code is single-use and can't be taken back from the Jagex account it's redeemed to. Make sure you're on the right account before entering the code. Use only the official redeem address to redeem the card; don't enter your code on look-alike addresses. Knightpin never asks for your RuneScape account password at any stage.
