FAQs
Note: The promo codes listed on this page are only compatible with orders place through The Official Minecraft Shop (minecraftshop.com). They cannot be used on any orders of digital product placed through minecraft.net, or through official games console stores (i.e. the Xbox Marketplace or PlayStation Store)
What shipping options does the Minecraft Shop offer?
The Minecraft Shop can ship orders anywhere within in the US, with a choice of standard, expedited or priority shipping available at the checkout. There are generally no free shipping offers, and fees are calculated at the checkout based on what you’ve order, where it’s shipping to, and which delivery option you’ve chosen. Regardless of your order, tracking details will be sent to you once order has shipped.
Standard shipping takes 5 – 8 business days, whereas expedited shipping takes to 3 – 5 business days to arrive, and priority shipping will be with you after 2 – 3 working days. Note that depending on the item you’ve ordered and whether it is currently in stock, there may be an additional 4 – 10 working days of processing time before your order ships.
Can I buy digital products through the Minecraft Shop?
The Official Minecraft Shop (minecraftshop.com) is only for merchandise, and not Minecoins, Realms, or game downloads (which are instead covered through the main Minecraft website, or your console’s online store). Instead, you can expect to find apparel, accessories, stationery, bed sets, backpacks and more, each with officially licensed Minecraft designs.
What is the Minecraft Shop returns policy?
Should you decide you want to send most items back to the Minecraft Shop, you can do so for whatever reason within a month of making your purchase under the brand’s 30-day money back guarantee. Just contact the team through the website, and they will provide a prepaid shipping label to cover return costs.
Although this returns policy does not apply to all items across the store’s range, any items not included will be marked as exempt on their individual product pages, meaning you will be able to see this before you place your order. Note that all online exclusives, personalized items, and products marked final sale are also exempt from the standard returns policy.
Minecraft Saving tips
Watch for sales
They aren’t extensive, but The Minecraft Shop does occasional run sales, with discount prices on selected items. You can expect to find up to 20% off certain products – especially online exclusives – with some deals appearing around key holidays like Black Friday and Christmas, as well as back to school season and more. We’ll update this page whenever we see discounts on the Minecraft Shop range, so check back regularly to get the best prices.
Look out for volume discounts
If you’re looking to bulk buy Minecraft merch, it could be worth contacting the shop team to see if they can give you a volume discount. So long as you’re ordering 100 items or more, the team may be able to offer price drops, with better deals the more you buy. Bear in mind that bulk orders are shipped via freight, and are therefore not subject to the usual shipping fees. Both bulk discounts and shipping costs will be worked out on a case-by-case basis.

How we source coupon codes
All the codes you see on PC Gamer have been sourced by our dedicated coupons team. Using our affiliate networks, partnerships with brands, and the world wide web, we track down the latest and best coupon codes and ways to save on your online orders. Our pages are updated multiple times a week, and our commercial team also uses their connections to negotiate exclusive codes with big name brands, so you can find all the best available codes and promotions listed in one place.
How we test coupon codes
To ensure that every code you see is ready to use, our team tests each one before uploading it to a page. Whether it’s for free shipping, a multibuy offer, a student discount, or savings in the sales, we check that the code can be applied at the checkout and works as described. We don’t include any one-time or user-specific codes, so you haven’t got to worry about anyone else beating you to the punch, and you’ll find codes for products across all kinds of categories.
We also include all the information about a coupon, such as terms and conditions and the expiry date, on the page below the offer description. Simply click ‘Terms & Conditions’ and you’ll expand the code box, where you’ll be able to read any specific instructions or requirements associated with your chosen coupon. We do our best to update this information whenever any changes are made, with each page checked at least twice a week.
What to do if a coupon code doesn’t work
Despite our best efforts, sometimes coupons won’t work as expected. Expiry dates and terms and conditions can be changed by the retailer, or the code may simply no longer be accepted. Should you run into any issues, don’t worry – our customer service team is available to offer support.
The first port of call should always be to check the coupon’s terms and conditions to make sure you meet all requirements. Codes may be product-specific (i.e. 5% off gaming laptops), require a minimum order value (i.e. when you spend $50 or more), or need you to verify your status (i.e. verify with a valid military email address). Click the ‘terms & conditions’ text below the ‘Get Code’ button to view all available information.
If you’re still having issues once you’ve confirmed that you meet the necessary requirements, you can get in touch with our team by sending an email to coupons.pcgamer@futurenet.com. Include a summary of which code you tried to use, where you found it, and what went wrong, and we’ll reply as soon as we can to help out.
How we make money
PC Gamer earns money from its coupon pages through a commission model. We have deals in place with every retailer that has a corresponding coupon page on our site. When you shop with one of these retailers and use one of our codes to get a discount, the brand will pay us a percentage of the final order total in commission.
Using this model means that redeeming a discount through PC Gamer never costs you a thing. We don’t charge any fees to apply a code, and all our money is made directly from retailers, not our audience. You’ll only ever pay for the products or services you buy, with lower prices just as they’re described on the page.
