    Go to https://www.fortnite.com/vbuckscard in a web browser. Since there's no option to redeem Fortnite V-Bucks within the game, you must use the official Epic Games website.
    • You can use a mobile or desktop browser.
    • If you purchased V-Bucks directly, they should automatically be added to the account you used to purchase. [1]

    If you don't have an Epic Games account, or you've been playing as a nameless account on console, you'll need to create one .
