    Unfortunately i found this out after buying one.

    Has anyone found a website for a digital code in the UK who has the offer?

    Today I opened the Update from Kozi regarding the retailers. And I had to see that the list got changed excluding the digital retailers and stating that Kaufland starts at first mid of November the rest follows end of November. This is a joke. I bought a card out of OFFICIAL information and now I have to hope that the support gets me the rewards...

    Where did you see this new announcement ? I can't find it.

    It was edited on 4th of November. Now it states it starts mid November in Germany. Good I took a Screenshot but I have it at home.
  • Could it be possible for me to have ea merge my account across both apple and google. Since I’ve seen others claim it’s possible to have same account on both platforms. Then purchase google rewards cards and still collect the special rewards.

  • Unfortunately No reward for me. £25 gift card and nothing, even under rewards. I do have a free movie rental but no SWGOH stuff.

    Lets´say i get the promotion:

    https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/comment/1334102/#Comment_1334102

    "Coming soon to Star Wars™: Galaxy of Heroes, you’ll be able to live Rey’s adventures through the Hero’s Journey special event. Experience some of her most thrilling moments as she progresses from a humble scavenger to making new allies to finding the legendary Luke Skywalker. Complete the event to unlock the next evolution of Rey and add her to your collection.

    To participate, players will need the scavenger version of Rey, currently available in the game. You can look forward to playing as Rey (Scavenger) in her Hero’s Journey event, in support of the worldwide theatrical release of Star Wars™: The Last Jedi this December."

    Does that mean Scavenger Rey is enough for the event? Or do need additional Characters?
  • So we all remember that Poe and Finn escaped in a first order Tie Fighter at the start of the movie
  • So frustrating. I purchased a £25 gift card and followed all the instructions. Got the promo to pop up - 5* Rey and 1500 crystals - and opened the game.

    Nothing.

    No Rey, no crystals, no Inbox message :(

    Is it best to contact EA or is it a google issue?

    If you recieved the Pop up but no mail ingame use the "restore purchases" button ingame. It should work.

    Even IF it was an google issue, EA is ALWAYS the company you have to contact. Google cannot and will not do anything as it not in their area of responsibility.

    It means that gift cards bought at Kaufland will work if bought on or after Nov 13th.
    The same thing will work with every other gift card bought on or after Nov 20th.
    It just means that Kaufland is getting the promotion one week earlier.

    The reward will depend on the Euro amount of the gift card.
    < 25 Euros = 4* Rey and 750 crystals
    > 25 Euros = 5* Rey and 1500 crystals
    >50€ Euros = 7* Rey and 3000 crystals

    You can use the gift card money for whatever you want in google play but YES, you can also use it for crystals.

  • @Nadana is it ">50€" or ">=50€"
    What would I get with a 50€ Google card ?
    I choose the Red Pill.

    With €50 you can get a full blockbuster PC game at release (such as Witcher 3, etc.).

    Or some crystals and 1 7* toon, both together representing roughly 0.1429% of a mobile game. Oh, and of course a great deal of buyer's remorse.

    Bought a few cards from Wilkos (confirmed working here), had the pop up and email stating I'm getting the shards. Nothing in game. Clicked restore purchase several times since last night, still nothing. I'm holding on to my other cards untill the first one go through. I might try to put a second one to check if it pushes the first one through.
  • you can also try and see if you can claim them in your google play account if you didn't claim it during the bonus popup right after using the gift code (or that popup didn't work like in my case), as elsewise you don't activate the bonus and of course can't reclaim in in swgoh

    Thanks to Aht1 firstly for his response.

    But yeah I've the same problem. I think it's just a ****-up of a promotion to be honest. Works for some, doesn't work for others. Not happy to be honest, but will start a support ticket anyway. Nothing else I can do I guess.

    If anything works for you let me know, and I'll do the same.

    Do i also get the 1,75 Mio. Credits, for the 50€ package?

    And about the event: Is Scavenger Rey is enough for the event? Or do need additional Characters?
  • Anybody knows, if this gift card promotion can be used directly ingame?
    I mean, if you go to the shop and select any amount of crystals there is an option to pay called purchase code.
    In case I use this option, I will recieve the special reward?
    This game sucks

    No you need to buy the card.

    Someone posted the GERMAN Terms & Conditions on Facebook and according to that there are no credits in this pack. However, I'd just wait til the promotion starts in Germany and see what the others are saying and posting. I would assume the promotion is the same everywhere.


    No one knows anything about the event(s) yet. Looking back at previous events and also episode 7, it is very likely that we will need more characters at some point, not only Rey.

    No, that won't work.

    Im in bc and yes they have the 50s..even 100s.. check electronics or the gift card rack by the front checkouts they should be there
  • Can anyone tell me if I've already bought 1 £25 card to get Rey to 5* , will another £25 card get her to 7*?

    I can't work out whether it's shard based or not.

    Logged in to another device earlier, and for some reason it worked. So try that. Daft really, seeing as the device I've played 99% of my game time on wouldn't do it!

    Update : the first card went through and I received the bonus items. So it takes about 24h to process.

    I just tried to add 2 others cards at once. The second card showed the bonus but it didn't get credited in game yet (gonna take 24h i guess) and the 3rd card doesn't show the bonus yet, there is a "Get item" button but when I tap it I get an error that I already have it. So my guess is I'll have to wait for the 2nd bonus to get credited In game before I can queue the 3rd one....

    It works but it's a slow process.
