Nintendo has announced that it is cancelling Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers. The vouchers were first introduced in 2023 and allowed Nintendo Switch Online players to buy two games, including first party titles at a discounted price. Game Vouchers will no longer be purchasable from January 30, 2026. All vouchers purchased on or before that date will work as they currently do. Unused vouchers expire 12 months after the date of purchase. Additionally, players will still be able to redeem their vouchers they previously purchased, even after January 30, 2026 as long as they haven’t expired.
The full details:
As of 11:59 PM Pacific Time January 30, 2026, it will no longer be possible to purchase Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers. Any vouchers you purchase on or before that date will work exactly as they currently do—unused vouchers expire 12 months after the date of purchase.
