Fortnite Gift Cards provide a simple and secure way for you to acquire funds within your Epic Games account and are slowly taking over the role previously held by V-Bucks cards. In this article, we will walk you through the steps you need to follow to redeem Fortnite Gift Cards across all platforms.
What is a Fortnite Gift Card?
A Fortnite gift card is basically a prepaid card that you can use to add funds to your Epic Games account balance upon being redeemed.
