EU-Only Promo With a Smartphone Catch

[cryptohog]

There’s a catch: the Pringles x Xbox promotion is limited to the UK and EU, and it requires a smartphone to participate. Accessing the Pringles promo site on a PC only displays a QR code, which must be scanned on a mobile device to create an account and generate codes.

Players outside these regions can’t officially sign up, but the restriction applies only to account creation—not code redemption. Codes for World of Warcraft, Sea of Thieves, and The Outer Worlds 2 can still be redeemed internationally, meaning EU/UK players can share them with friends abroad.
