Nintendo eShop cards, paid with crypto
A Nintendo eShop card adds funds to your Nintendo Account balance, which buys games and DLC on Switch and covers Nintendo Switch Online. Redeemed funds are shared across the account, so a family with linked accounts can draw from the same balance depending on how sharing is set up.
eShop cards are region-locked to the account's country, and Nintendo is strict about it: a US eShop card only works on a US Nintendo Account, and the region cannot be changed once there is a balance. Ours are US codes. A $35 card is the typical top-up for a mid-price download plus a bit of DLC. Funds do not expire.
