Region lock

A restriction limiting use of a digital item to specified countries, currencies, account regions or storefronts.

A game voucher available for one regional edition may not work in another. Similarly, a gift card intended for a US account might not redeem on a foreign storefront. Product descriptions should identify the supported market prominently and avoid treating globally named brands as universally redeemable.

Key facts

  • Region eligibility may depend on account settings
  • Currency and region are not interchangeable concepts
  • Support checks should happen before purchase
