You can redeem both full game and in-game content codes through Origin.
Subscription and virtual currency (e.g. Sim Points) codes must be redeemed at the URL specified in your code instructions.
EA pre-paid cards (cash cards) can be redeemed at http://www.eacashcard.com.
I received a message saying my code can't be redeemed through Origin. What should I do?
Check the instructions that came with your code. The correct code redemption URL should be listed there.
I was instructed to redeem my code at a non-Origin site. Should I?
Some codes will give you extra content when you redeem them at a specific URL. Whenever possible, Origin will link you to that URL. In some instances, you will need to check the instructions you received with your code in order to identify the correct redemption location.

I tried to add an EA game I purchased outside of Origin to my Origin Game Library, but it didn’t work. What do I do now?

I just redeemed a code for a full game. How do I download it?
Once a code for a full game has been redeemed, it will be available for download in your Origin Game Library. If you don't have Origin installed, you can download it at http://www.origin.com/about.
I redeemed a code, but nothing new appeared in my Game Library. What happened?
Not all codes are full game codes. Some codes are redeemable for in-game content only, and will not create a new icon in your Game Library. The content from these codes can be accessed from within the game they’re related to.
I received a message that an error occurred while processing my request. What do I do?
Please contact a game advisor with the code you tried to redeem.
