Buy Nintendo eShop Card for Canada

The Canada listing is the Canada edition of a Nintendo eShop card: 4 values in CAD running from 10 CAD to 99 CAD, delivered as a code and redeemed inside Nintendo eShop rather than at checkout. No player ID, console serial or account password is asked for when the order is placed.

What the eShop Balance Buys

What separates a funded balance from buying one game is the flexibility. The credit sits on the account and can cover a full title, a piece of downloadable content or a smaller add-on, and it stays there until a purchase uses it. A Canada eShop card is therefore prepay credit at the eShop's own prices, not a voucher tied to one product.

Values on This Page

Canada carries 4 values in CAD, from 10 CAD to 99 CAD: 10 CAD, 35 CAD, 50 CAD and 99 CAD. All 4 are in stock today, so the table on the listing can be ordered as shown. The family runs up to 7 values, so this sits in the middle of it.

Every step is denominated in CAD and added to the balance at the value printed on it, so the figures above describe the card's own design. Availability moves per step, which is why the table on the listing is worth reading before picking a figure.

Which Account This Card Matches

Nintendo's regional compatibility rules decide whether this code lands. Nintendo states that eShop cards are compatible only for the Nintendo eShop country or region where they were intended to be sold, and that the eShop country on the console comes from the country or region setting on the Nintendo Account. This is the Canada card in CAD, so the account it reloads should be the one set to Canada.

Nintendo also states that an eShop balance does not carry over when a Nintendo Account's country or region setting is changed, and that a card bought for a different region cannot be replaced, exchanged or refunded. An account registered elsewhere needs the matching market instead, which is why the Germany listing and the Europe listing are separate pages. Checking the account's region before buying is the whole of it.

How to Redeem a Nintendo eShop Card

The code is entered in Nintendo eShop on the console, and the steps are the same in every market:

1. Open Nintendo eShop from the HOME Menu.
2. Select the account that should receive the funds.
3. Choose Enter Code on the left side of the screen.
4. Enter the 16-character code from the order page and select OK.

Nintendo notes that a Nintendo Account must have opened Nintendo eShop on the system at least once before a code can be entered, and that codes are printed on the receipt or card - some retailer cards carry a Control Number as well, which is not the code to type. If the wrong code was bought, Nintendo states it cannot replace, exchange or refund it, so the region check above is the one worth making first.

Delivery

Nothing is posted. The code is generated and shown the moment payment clears, usually within minutes, on the order page and in the inbox, and because no manual step is involved it can be redeemed whenever the buyer is ready. Keeping it in the order history also means it can be re-read exactly as issued.

Before You Buy

The account's country or region is the first thing worth confirming: this is the Canada card, and Nintendo reads the eShop country from the Nintendo Account's own setting. After that, type the 16-character code from the order page into Nintendo eShop, and remember the balance stays with that account rather than travelling with the console.
