Key, account or Altergift: choose the right digital format

Digital products can lead to the same game while delivering very different rights and instructions. The product type displayed above the title and inside the offer facts is part of what you are buying, not a decorative label.

What each format delivers

A key is a one-time activation code for your own compatible account. An account product delivers credentials to a separate account that already owns the item and requires following transfer and security instructions. An Altergift is sent through the platform gift flow and normally needs an eligible receiving account. Wallet cards add credit rather than a game.

Compare the formats before payment

1. Choose a key when you want the license attached to your existing compatible account.
2. Choose an account only when you accept account-credential delivery and the stated security procedure.
3. Choose an Altergift only after checking friend, region and waiting-period rules on the offer.
4. Choose wallet credit when you want to buy later inside the official platform store.
5. Never assume two products with the same cover image use the same delivery format.

Region, device and refund consequences

A key can be restricted by activation region, an account by its configured country, and a gift by both sender and receiver rules. Digital goods that are revealed, delivered or redeemed generally cannot be returned merely because the wrong platform, edition or region was selected.

Warning signs to resolve first

• The title says account while you expected a key.
• The offer requires a base game or a different console generation.
• The region badge does not match your account configuration.
• The delivery instructions require a platform feature that your account cannot use.

Keep the purchase decision explicit

Read the product facts and delivery text immediately before payment. Save the order reference, but never share personal platform credentials with anyone. If a format is unclear, ask TuniGamers support before revealing or redeeming the delivered item.

Compare current digital game formats, browse the TuniGamers store, and use the player guides before choosing a similar-looking offer.
