Genshin Impact players can redeem active codes for free Primogems, Mora, Hero’s Wit, Adventurer’s Experience, and upgrade materials.

Active Genshin Impact Codes — May 2026

These codes were listed as active on May 16, 2026. They may stop working at any time if HoYoverse removes them or they reach a usage limit.

GENSHINGIFT 50 Primogems, 3 Hero’s Wit Periodically active / account-dependent

Note on PSCA8NL4ZSPD and G5HS7EMI47D0: The Genshin Impact Wiki lists both codes under the same reward. They may be alternate codes, so if one works, the other may not give a second reward on the same account.

Note on GENSHINGIFT: This code is periodically active and account-dependent. It may already show as redeemed on older accounts.

Recently Expired Genshin Impact Codes

These codes came from the May 8, 2026 special program and expired on May 11, 2026. They are listed here for reference only and may no longer work.

Code Rewards
BacktoSumeru 100 Primogems, 10 Mystic Enhancement Ore
NicolaCoCo 100 Primogems, 5 Hero’s Wit
WilltoWin 100 Primogems, 50,000 Mora

Livestream codes like these often have a short redemption window. The May 8 codes expired on May 11 — if you see codes appear during a special program, redeem them immediately rather than saving them for later.

How to Redeem Genshin Impact Codes

You can redeem codes in two ways.

Method 1: HoYoverse Redemption Website

  1. Go to the official Genshin Impact redemption page.
  2. Log in with your HoYoverse account.
  3. Select your correct server (Asia, America, Europe, or TW/HK/MO).
  4. Enter the code exactly as shown — no spaces before or after.
  5. Claim the rewards from your in-game mail after redeeming the code.

Method 2: In-Game Redemption

  1. Open Genshin Impact and tap the Paimon Menu (top-left).
  2. Go to Settings → Account → Redeem Code.
  3. Enter the code and confirm.
  4. Collect rewards from your in-game mail.

Minimum requirement: Most codes require Adventure Rank 10 and a linked HoYoverse account. GENSHINGIFT is a known exception to the AR10 rule, though players still need access to in-game mail to claim the reward.

Why a Code Might Not Work

If a code does not work, one of these reasons is usually the cause:

  • The code has expired. Even codes listed as “indefinite” can be silently revoked by HoYoverse.
  • You have already redeemed it. Re-entering a used code on the same account shows a success screen but delivers nothing new.
  • Wrong server selected. Rewards go to the server you select, so choose the server you actually play on.
  • Adventure Rank too low. Most accounts below AR10 cannot process redemption codes. Check specific requirements if you are a new player.
  • Accidental spacing. A single space before or after the code string invalidates it entirely. Copy-paste carefully, or type it character by character.
  • Usage limit reached. Some codes are capped at a total number of global redemptions. Once the limit is reached, the code may stop working even if you never used it.

How to Stay Ahead of New Codes

HoYoverse releases codes through three main channels: Special Program livestreams ahead of each new version, official social media posts on X/Twitter and Facebook, and occasionally through partner content creators during collaboration events.

The best habit is to watch each Special Program live, redeem codes the moment they appear on screen, and do not close the stream until all codes have been entered. Waiting too long can make the codes expire before you use them.

Bookmark the Genshin Impact Wiki’s active-code table as a secondary fallback — it is updated frequently by the community and clearly separates active codes from expired ones, which most third-party list articles do not.

These codes were listed by current trackers on May 16, 2026. Genshin Impact codes can expire or become account-limited without notice. Redeem through HoYoverse’s official redemption page as soon as possible.
