What Are Match Masters Reward Keys?
Reward keys are alphanumeric strings distributed by Candivore that players redeem for free in-game rewards. Unlike daily gift links, which you click, reward keys must be manually entered into the game's redemption screen. Four characteristics matter:
- Case-sensitive: TEAM10 and team10 are not the same string.
- One-time use: most codes can only be redeemed once per account.
- Time-limited: codes expire within days to weeks, and some within hours.
- Platform-agnostic: they work on iOS, Android, and the web version alike.
Typical rewards are coins, bronze through gold boosters, sticker packs, percentage discounts at the Masters Market, and occasionally exclusive event items.
How to Redeem a Reward Key
There are two routes into the same screen, depending on how your version of the game is laid out.
Through Settings
- 1
Tap the gear icon in the top-right corner of the home screen.
- 2
Scroll to Reward Keys or Promo Codes.
- 3
Tap to open the redemption interface.
Through the Rewards menu
- 1
Tap the Rewards or Gift icon on the home screen.
- 2
Look for the Enter Code or Reward Keys tab.
- 3
Tap to open the redemption interface.
Entering the code
Type or paste the code exactly as shown, with no spaces before or after it and no extra characters. Capitalization matters. Tap Redeem, and if the code is valid a confirmation appears and the reward lands in your account. Then verify it: check your coin balance, booster inventory, or sticker album rather than assuming it worked.
Reward Keys Versus Daily Gift Links
Players confuse these constantly, and the difference changes how you should chase each one:
- Format: a reward key is a string you type. A gift link is a URL you open.
- Redemption: keys are entered manually in-game. Links open in a browser and hand off to the app.
- Frequency: keys appear irregularly, weekly to monthly. Links go up 2 to 3 times a day.
- Expiry: keys last days to weeks, sometimes hours. Links stay valid for 3 days.
- Rewards: keys pay coins, boosters, stickers, or discounts. Links pay coins, boosters, stickers, or spin tokens.
- Reuse: both are one use per account.
The practical strategy is to use both. Reward keys deliver occasional larger one-off rewards, while gift links provide the consistent daily income. Our free gifts page tracks the links, and our promo codes guide covers what is currently confirmed.
Mistakes That Break a Redemption
Six errors account for nearly every failed reward key:
- Wrong capitalization: entering team10 instead of TEAM10. Copy and paste rather than retyping.
- Extra spaces or characters: a trailing space from a sloppy copy is enough to invalidate the string.
- Redeeming an expired code: most codes last one to four weeks, and event codes expire within hours. Check when it was posted.
- Falling for a fake code: codes from hack or generator sites do not exist. Only codes traceable to an official post are worth trying.
- Not verifying the reward landed: check your balance or inventory afterwards. If nothing arrived, the code may have silently failed.
- Redeeming on the wrong account: one-time codes cannot be transferred, so use your main account.
How to Prioritize Codes
Not every code is worth the same urgency. Ranked by how fast you should act:
- Legendary or Special Edition booster codes: redeem immediately. These are the rarest payouts in the system.
- Large coin codes and diamond booster codes: redeem within a day. A diamond booster alone is worth 400 to 1,000 coins.
- Event and livestream codes: redeem immediately regardless of size, because these expire within hours of the event ending.
- Mid-size coin codes and gold or silver booster codes: redeem within the week.
- Sticker pack codes: redeem within the week; useful mainly if they fill an album gap.
- Discount codes: hold until you are making a purchase worth discounting. Spending a single-use discount on a cheap item wastes it.
- Small coin codes: redeem when convenient. Nice, but not worth interrupting a session for.
Making a Discount Code Count
A percentage discount such as TEAM10 is one use per player, so where you spend it matters more than when. The sensible approach is to wait until you are making a purchase you had already decided on, add everything to the cart at once, and apply the code to the combined total rather than to a single small item. Use it on a larger coin package, a booster bundle, or a season pass rather than on one bronze booster. If you are not planning to spend at all, a discount code is worth nothing to you, and that is a perfectly reasonable position in a game this generous with free gift links.
Tracking Codes So You Do Not Miss Them
Because expiry windows vary so widely, the players who get the most out of codes are the ones who note when they found each one. Keeping a simple record of the code, its reward, when you found it, whether it has an expiry, and whether you have already redeemed it is enough to stop the two failure modes that cost the most: letting a live code lapse, and repeatedly retrying one you already used. Setting a reminder for anything you believe expires within a day is worth doing for the higher-value keys.
When a Reward Does Not Appear
If the game accepts a code but nothing shows up, restart the app and check your inventory again before concluding it failed, since server delays are common. If it is still missing after a restart, the redemption did not go through. At that point the code has either expired, was already used on your account, or was never valid. If you are confident it should have worked, contact Candivore support through the in-game help.
