How GG Codes Verifies Codes
GG Codes exists to give players codes that actually work, and to be honest when a game has none. This page explains exactly how we source, review, and maintain every code on the site.
How we source codes
Every code we publish is backed by a real, defensible source. We pull from official game publisher channels and verified developer social accounts, in-game announcements, and player reports from the community. We cross-check against multiple authoritative sources before a code goes live. We do not invent codes, and we do not publish placeholder or demo codes.
How we keep codes current
Codes expire fast, sometimes within days, so we do not rely on manual monthly updates. Our system cross-checks sources every 6 hours and updates each page automatically. On every page, players can mark a code as working or not working, and those reports feed directly into how we flag and review codes. Each code carries its own last cross-checked date so you can see how fresh the information is.
The verification line you will see across the site reflects exactly what we do: cross-checked daily against official sources, confirmed by player reports.
What we do not claim
We do not redeem every code in-game ourselves. Doing that at the scale of a live codes site is not possible, and claiming it would be dishonest. So we never say a code was "tested by our team" or "personally verified in-game." What we do say is what we actually do: we cross-check against official sources and confirm against player reports. We think honest sourcing is a stronger trust signal than a claim we could not back up.
Human review before publication
Every code page is reviewed by a real person, William Westerlund, before it goes live. That review covers the codes, the redemption steps, the rewards, the requirements, and the links. Ongoing code accuracy after publication is handled by the automated cross-checking and player reports described above.
How we present active and expired codes
We always separate active codes from expired ones, in clearly distinct tables, so you never waste time on a dead code. We keep expired codes listed for reference, because players often search a specific code to check whether it still works.
When a game has no codes
Some popular games have no public codes, or only one-time codes that come with physical merchandise. When that is the case, we say so plainly rather than padding a page with fake or expired codes. An honest "no active codes" answer is more useful than a list that does not work.
Corrections and updates
Our pages are living documents. We update them in place as codes are added, expire, or are confirmed by players, and the last cross-checked date reflects the most recent check. If you spot something wrong, the working and not-working buttons on each page are the fastest way to tell us.
