How to Activate a Ubisoft Connect Key

Ubisoft Connect (formerly known as Uplay) is Ubisoft’s game launcher and store. Redeeming a key here adds the game directly to your Ubisoft library.

Before you start

Make sure you have the following ready:

  • A Ubisoft account (free to create at ubisoftconnect.com)
  • The Ubisoft Connect app installed on your PC
  • Your product key

Method 1: Via the Ubisoft Connect App (Recommended)

  • Open the Ubisoft Connect app and sign in to your account.
  • Click the hamburger menu (☰) in the top-left corner.
  • Select “Activate a key”.
  • Enter your product key and click “Activate”.
  • The game will appear in your Games library, ready to download.

Method 2: Via the Ubisoft Website

  • Go to ubisoftconnect.com and sign in.
  • Click your profile icon in the top-right corner and select “Activate a key”.
  • Enter your product key and confirm.
  • The game will be added to your account. Open Ubisoft Connect to download it.

Tips

  • Copy and paste your key to avoid typos.
  • Some Ubisoft games purchased on other platforms (like Steam or Epic) will still require Ubisoft Connect to run. This is normal.
  • Ubisoft Connect keys may be region-locked depending on the publisher.
  • Each key can only be used once and is permanently bound to your Ubisoft account.
  • If you receive an “invalid key” error, double-check for typos and ensure the code hasn’t already been redeemed.
