My Nintendo Points Overview
Information
My Nintendo members can earn My Nintendo points by completing various missions. My Nintendo points can then be redeemed for various Nintendo-themed rewards through the My Nintendo website.
You can also use My Nintendo Gold Points as payment towards eligible digital Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch game and DLC purchases in the Nintendo eShop and on the Nintendo website (where available).
There are two kinds of My Nintendo points:
- Platinum Points
- Platinum Points can be earned by completing missions related to the My Nintendo service or smart device applications.
- Platinum Points (all types) are valid until the last day of the month 6 months after you earn them. (For example, points earned on April 15, 2025 would expire on October 31, 2025.)
- Gold Points
- As of March 25, 2026 it is no longer possible to earn Gold Points.
- Gold Points are valid until the last day of the month 12 months after you earn them. (For example, points earned on March 24, 2026 would expire on March 31, 2027.)
You can check the My Nintendo points you've earned, how you've redeemed them, and what points will expire via the points history page of the My Nintendo website when signed in to your Nintendo Account.
My Nintendo points cannot be transferred, sold, or traded to other people, and one type of My Nintendo Point cannot be exchanged for another. (For example, Platinum Points cannot be exchanged for Gold Points.)
