Troubleshooting Activation Errors

Below you will find more information about potential errors you might encounter when trying to activate a game on Steam. 

 

Duplicate Code 

If you encounter above error, this means that the code has already been used. Steam codes can only be activated once. It is also not possible to transfer licenses between accounts. 

Should you have purchased a new game key, you will need to get in contact with your retailer for a replacement. 

In case that you already activated the key on another account, you will need to access said account. 

As mentioned above, a license transfer is not possible. 

For assistance in recovering Steam accounts, please get in contact with the Steam Support.

 

Not Available In Your Region

Unfortunately it is not possible to activate all codes because some of them are region based.

In this instance we recommend to reaching out to your place of purchase for further assistance.
