What Are Shift Codes in Borderlands 4?

Shift codes (often stylized as SHiFT codes) are exclusive promotional rewards from Gearbox and 2K Games, a tradition that’s been exploding loot drops since Borderlands 2.
These 25 character alphanumeric codes look something like “BHRBJ-ZWHT3-W6JBK-BT3BB-CW3ZK” and can be redeemed for ingame goodies.

In Borderlands 4, Shift codes primarily grant Golden Keys, which unlock special Golden Chests scattered across hub areas like Belton’s Bore, The Launchpad, Carcadia and The Lockaway.
Each chest costs one key but guarantees high rarity loot, think Epic or Legendary weapons, shields and mods tailored to your character.
Occasionally, codes drop cosmetics, weapon skins or even full packs like the Break Free Pack.

Why chase them?
They’re free, limited-time and can give you a massive edge early in the campaign or endgame grinds.
Codes drop via social media (like Randy Pitchford’s X posts), Discord quests or promotions, but they expire fast, sometimes in 48 hours.

How to Activate and Redeem Shift Codes in Borderlands 4

Redeeming Shift codes in Borderlands 4 is straightforward, whether you’re on console, PC or even away from your rig.
You’ll need a free SHiFT account first (create one at shift.gearboxsoftware.com and link your platform). Here’s the step by step:

Method 1: Redeem Ingame (Fastest for Console/PC Players)

  1. Launch Borderlands 4 and log in with your linked SHiFT account.
  2. From the main menu or pause screen (Esc on PC, Options on PS5/Xbox), select the SHiFT tab.
  3. Navigate to the Rewards section (gift box icon).
  4. Enter the 25-character code in the text box, no need for hyphens or perfect capitalization; the game auto formats.
  5. Hit Redeem and confirm. Boom, your Golden Keys or items appear in your inventory or mail (check the rewards in the inventory if needed).
  6. Head to a Golden Chest (unlocked via story progress) and spend your keys for that sweet loot!

Time to Reward: Under 2 minutes. Restart the game if rewards don’t show up immediately.

Method 2: Redeem Online (For Mobile or Pre-Loading)

  1. Visit shift.gearboxsoftware.com/rewards and log in.
  2. Click Code Redemption in the top menu.
  3. Paste the code and hit Check.
  4. Boot up Borderlands 4 to claim, rewards sync automatically.

Troubleshooting Tips:

  • Error Message? Double check spelling or try without hyphens. Codes are case insensitive but expire strictly.
  • No Rewards Showing? Ensure your SHiFT account is linked (under User Preferences) and restart the game.
  • Platform Issues? Xbox/PSN linking can glitch, unlink/relink via the site.
  • Golden Keys appear in your currency tab; use them on chests for level appropriate gear.
