The Nintendo Switch Vouchers were announced earlier this year. Nintendo unveiled them as a way to save money on upcoming purchases. The vouchers cost $99.98 and are available through the Nintendo Switch Online Service. However, from a distance, this process and bundle can seem complicated and confusing. Here’s a guide on how to purchase the Vouchers and the best use of them.
How to Purchase the Nintendo Switch Vouchers
The Vouchers are exclusively available through the Nintendo Switch Online service. They are available for $99.98 through this link. There are a few ways to purchase the vouchers. For one, you can pay the $99.98 upfront. Your wallet will hate you for it, but it is a good option if you have the money.
There is, however, another way to purchase it. You can use Nintendo eShop cards to add funds to your account and purchase it through those means. Several third-party websites like klarna and Afterpay allow you to pay for both gift cards in four separate installments over eight weeks.
For example, if you buy two fifty-dollar gift cards, you must pay twenty-five dollars every two weeks. You still get access to the vouchers and can use them immediately, but if you’re currently short on money, this is an excellent way to save a bit more money over time.
Best Use of the Vouchers
On the official store page, you can see what games can be purchased using the voucher. Examples include The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the upcoming Super Mario RPG remake, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and more. If there are a few games you’re hoping to buy later this year rather than one specific game, the vouchers are perfect for you. Especially if you intend to buy Tears of the Kingdom, a $69.99 game. You can use the vouchers to grab both Tears of the Kingdom and Super Mario RPG and save almost thirty dollars.
Here’s more information about how the vouchers work on the eShop page:
-
Buy now, use later: Vouchers are redeemable for 12 months from the date of purchase and don’t have to be used at the same time.
-
More games, more savings: You can have up to eight active vouchers in your account at a time. Build your Nintendo Switch library at a discount!
-
A growing list: New games are regularly added to the catalog, including upcoming releases. View the game list
-
Earn as you buy: Receive My Nintendo Gold Points worth 5% of your total paid amount.**
