Riot Points and Valorant Points: One Gift Card for All Riot Games

League of Legends runs on Riot Points, Valorant runs on Valorant Points, and Teamfight Tactics shares the League wallet. For years, that meant separate gift cards for each game. Today, a single Riot Games gift card covers them all: you choose the game when you redeem, and the whole value turns into that game’s currency. This guide explains how Riot Points work, how the multi-game card works and how to get the most out of every code.

Riot Points and Valorant Points Explained

Riot Points, usually shortened to RP, are the premium currency of League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics. Valorant Points, or VP, do the same job in Valorant. You buy them with real money and spend them on cosmetics, passes and other extras.

None of these currencies give a gameplay advantage. Instead, they pay for looks and convenience, such as a new champion skin, an agent unlock or a battle pass. In other words, every Riot game stays free to play, and the points are entirely optional.

It also helps to know that RP and VP are tied to your Riot account, not to a device. As a result, points you add on one PC are available on any other computer where you log in to the same account.

One Card for Every Riot Game

The Riot Games gift card is a prepaid code with a fixed value in your currency, for example 10, 20 or 50 euros. It is not tied to one title. When you redeem it, Riot asks which game should receive the value.

• Choose League of Legends or TFT, and the value becomes Riot Points.
• Choose Valorant, and the value becomes Valorant Points.
• Choose Legends of Runeterra, and the value goes to that game’s store.

This flexibility makes the card a safe buy. You do not need to know in advance which game you or a friend will play next, because the decision happens at redemption.

For shops and gift buyers, it also simplifies things. Instead of stocking separate League and Valorant cards for every region, one Riot card in the right currency covers the whole Riot catalogue on PC.

How to Redeem Riot Points With a Gift Card

The easiest way to redeem is Riot’s own code page in a browser. It works for every supported game and takes about a minute.

The points usually appear in your account straight away, although Riot says it can occasionally take up to 24 hours. Before you confirm, double-check both the account and the selected game, because a redeemed code cannot be moved.

If you redeem while the game is open, restart the client afterwards. Sometimes the store only shows the new balance after a fresh login, even though the points are already on your account.

Redeeming Inside the Game Client

If your game is already open, you can also redeem from the client. The menu names differ slightly between games:

• League of Legends and TFT: open the Store, click Purchase RP, choose Prepaid Cards and enter the code without spaces.
• Valorant: click the Valorant Points icon next to the Store tab, choose Prepaid Cards and Codes, then enter and submit the code.
• Legends of Runeterra: open the Store, click the plus icon, choose Prepaid Cards and enter the code.

Both methods give the same result. However, the website is handy on a phone or when you want to redeem for a game you are not running right now. Also, console players are directed to the website rather than an in-game menu.

Matching the Card to Your Riot Account Region

Riot codes are region-locked. A card only works on accounts from the region where it was sold, so the card should match the currency of your Riot account.

To check your currency, open the store in League or Valorant and look at the price of an RP or VP bundle. Then pick the card in the same currency. If your country is not covered, our guide on country and payment errors explains other options.

Keep in mind that changing the region of a Riot account is not simple. League requires a paid server transfer, and Valorant ties your region to where you play. Therefore, buying the right card from the start is much easier than moving your account.

How Much Riot Points Your Money Buys

Riot sells RP and VP in fixed bundles, and the exact amounts depend on your region and currency. So, rather than one global price, each country has its own table in the store.

One rule applies almost everywhere, though. Larger bundles usually include bonus points, so the price per point drops as the bundle gets bigger. For example, two small purchases often give fewer points than one larger purchase for the same total.

• Check your store first: look at the bundle sizes and prices in your own League or Valorant client.
• Match the card to a bundle: choose a card value that covers the bundle you want without leaving a tiny remainder.
• Leftovers are fine: unspent points stay in your account for the next purchase.

In short, a mid-sized card is often the sweet spot for regular players, while a large card pays off before a big event or skin release.

Spending Riot Points in League of Legends

League of Legends has the largest Riot Points store. Here is where most players spend their RP:

• Champion skins, from simple recolors to legendary and ultimate skins.
• Event and battle passes, which unlock extra rewards during seasonal events.
• New champions, if you do not want to wait to unlock them with Blue Essence.
• Chromas, ward skins and emotes to personalize your account.
• Server transfers, which cost RP when you move your account to another League region.

Many players also keep a small RP balance for limited-time bundles, which often give better value than buying items one by one. Consequently, a 20 or 25 card is a common choice for regular players.

Seasonal events are the busiest time for RP spending. Riot usually launches new skin lines, an event pass and limited bundles together, so loading points just before an event starts gives you the most choice.

Spending Riot Points in Teamfight Tactics

Teamfight Tactics uses the same Riot Points as League, because both games share one account and one wallet. So, any RP you add for League is also available in TFT, and the other way round.

• Little Legends, the tacticians that walk around your board.
• Arenas and booms, which change how your board and finishing moves look.
• The TFT pass, which unlocks extra rewards for each set.
• Chibi Champions, premium versions of popular characters.

If you play both games, there is no need to split your budget. One redemption for League or TFT covers both, which is another reason the shared wallet is convenient.

TFT sets change several times a year, and each new set brings a fresh pass and new Little Legends. Therefore, many TFT players time their top-up to the start of a new set, when the most new content arrives at once.

What Valorant Points Unlock

Valorant Points are separate from RP, so a code must be redeemed for Valorant directly if you want VP. Here is what they unlock:

• Weapon skin bundles and single skins from the daily store.
• The Premium Battle Pass, with skins, sprays and cards each act.
• Agents, if you want them immediately instead of earning them through play.
• The Night Market, a periodic shop with discounted skins.

Because Valorant skins are often sold in bundles, VP needs can add up quickly. As a result, many players buy a larger card before a new bundle or Night Market arrives. For esports fans, our report on the Valorant Champions 2026 final covers the latest season.

Keep an eye on the daily store as well. It rotates individual skins every day, so if a skin you want appears there, you can buy it on its own instead of paying for a full bundle.

Currencies You Cannot Buy

Not every Riot currency can be bought with a gift card. Some are earned only by playing, which is worth knowing before you spend:

• Blue Essence (League): earned through play and used to unlock champions.
• Kingdom Credits (Valorant): earned through play and used for accessories and agent unlocks.
• Event currencies: earned by completing missions during limited events.

In short, gift cards cover the premium currencies, RP and VP, while free currencies come from playing. Combining both is the most cost-effective way to build a collection.

For example, a patient League player can unlock most champions with Blue Essence alone and keep RP purely for skins. Similarly, Valorant players can earn agents with Kingdom Credits and save VP for weapon bundles and the battle pass.

Riot Points on Console and Mobile

Riot cash codes are designed for the PC versions of its games. That matters if you also play on other devices.

• Valorant on console: purchases there usually go through the PlayStation or Xbox store, so a console gift card is the better fit.
• Wild Rift: the mobile version of League uses its own currency, bought through the Apple or Google store.
• TFT on mobile: it shares your Riot account, so RP added on PC can usually be spent on your phone as well.

So, before buying, ask where the points will actually be spent. For console or phone purchases, browse our digital gift cards for the matching store card instead.

Old League and Valorant Cards vs the Riot Card

TopGift also sells older League of Legends and Valorant gift cards, and many players wonder which to choose. The answer is simple: both work, but the Riot Games gift card is the most flexible.

• Riot Games Gift Card: choose the game at redemption, ideal if you play several Riot titles or buy for someone else.
• League of Legends Gift Card: a natural fit for League and TFT players.
• Valorant Gift Card: a natural fit if you only play Valorant.

In every case, check that the region matches your account. Otherwise, the code will not redeem, regardless of which card you choose.

If you already bought an older League or Valorant card, there is no need to swap it. Those cards still work, and Riot has confirmed that older League cards can be redeemed across its supported games as well.

When a Riot Code Will Not Work

Most failed redemptions come down to a handful of causes. Work through these before contacting support:

• Wrong region: the card must match the region of your Riot account.
• Typing errors: enter the code without spaces, ideally by copying and pasting.
• Wrong account: codes go to whichever account is logged in, so check the Riot ID first.
• Wrong game: a code redeemed for the wrong game cannot be moved, so read the summary screen.
• Delays: points sometimes take up to 24 hours to appear.

If the code still fails, contact TopGift support with your order number and a screenshot of the error. For general troubleshooting, see what to do when a gift card is not working.

Riot Points for Younger Players

League and Valorant are hugely popular with teenagers, and Riot Points are one of the most requested presents. A prepaid card is the safest way to give that budget.

Because the value is fixed, there is no risk of a surprise bill on a parent’s bank card. The player gets exactly the amount you choose, and nothing else is linked to the account.

• Set a regular budget: a small card each month teaches the value of in-game spending.
• Agree on what to buy: for example, a battle pass gives more content than a single skin.
• Check age ratings: Valorant is rated for older teens in most regions, while League is suitable for a slightly younger audience.

In addition, redeem the code together the first time. That way, you can make sure it goes to the right account and the right game.

Keeping Your Riot Account Safe

An account full of skins is an attractive target, so a few security steps are worth the effort:

• Turn on multi-factor authentication in your Riot account settings.
• Ignore free RP or VP generators, which are always scams designed to steal your login.
• Never share unused codes on Discord, streams or social media.
• Only log in on official Riot pages and in the game client.

Also, be careful with messages offering cheap accounts or skin trades. Riot does not allow account selling, and these offers often end with a stolen account. When you buy points, stick to official codes from a trusted shop.

Giving Riot Points as a Gift

Riot Points make a popular present, especially for teenagers and students who play League or Valorant every day. Thanks to the multi-game card, you do not even need to know which game they prefer.

Just find out which region their account uses, pick a value and send the code in a private message. A small card covers a battle pass, while 50 or more can pay for a premium skin bundle. Because delivery takes minutes, it also works as a last-minute gift. For more ideas, see our best gifts for gamers, or browse all gaming cards on TopGift.
