What Are Riot Points and How Can You Buy Them in Europe?

Riot Points (RP) are the premium in-game currency used across Riot Games titles, including League of Legends, VALORANT, Teamfight Tactics, and Wild Rift. You can buy RP for your European account in two ways: directly through the Riot Games client using a credit card or PayPal, or by purchasing a prepaid RP gift card from a reseller and redeeming the code in your account. The gift card route is preferred by many European players because it unlocks local payment methods like iDEAL, Bancontact, Klarna, and Paysafecard that are not always available on the Riot Games client directly. Riot Points never expire after redemption and are available in denominations of €10, €20, and €50 at most European storefronts, with €5 and €25 cards available on some platforms.

One important consideration for European buyers: RP codes are tied to a specific server region. If your League of Legends or VALORANT account is on EU West (EUW), which covers the Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Belgium, and most of Western Europe, you need an EUW code. EU Nordic and East (EUNE) covers Poland, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, and Turkey. Most authorised European resellers sell EU West codes by default; always verify the region label before purchasing.

An RP code bought for North America will not redeem on a European account. Always confirm the region label on the product page matches your Riot Games account server before completing your purchase.

Payment Methods for Buying Riot Points in Europe

iDEAL

iDEAL is the leading bank payment method in the Netherlands and is accepted at Startselect for Riot Points gift card purchases. Dutch players can select iDEAL at checkout, authenticate through their online banking, and receive the RP code on-screen and by email within seconds. No transaction fees are added by Startselect for iDEAL *(Startselect, 2026)*. iDEAL is available only to holders of a Dutch bank account and does not work outside the Netherlands.

Bancontact

Bancontact is Belgium's primary bank payment method and is supported at Startselect for Belgian customers buying Riot gift cards. Select Bancontact at checkout, confirm through your banking app, and the code is delivered immediately. All standard EU denominations are supported for Belgian accounts *(Startselect, 2026)*. Bancontact is limited to Belgian bank accounts.

Klarna

Klarna is available at Startselect across Germany, the Netherlands, and Austria. It offers pay-now, pay-in-30-days, and instalment options at checkout. Startselect does not add fees for Klarna, but deferred payment plans through Klarna may include interest depending on your agreement *(Klarna, 2026)*. For players who want RP immediately and prefer to pay at the end of the month, Klarna is a practical option in DACH markets.

Paysafecard

Paysafecard has official support on the Riot Games payment page and is accepted at Startselect and Dundle. You buy a Paysafecard voucher pin at a supermarket, kiosk, or online top-up service across Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Austria, and Switzerland, then enter the pin at checkout on the reseller's site. No bank account or card is needed *(Riot Games, 2026; Paysafecard, 2026)*. This makes Paysafecard one of the most accessible methods for European players who pay in cash or prefer not to enter card details online.

PayPal

PayPal is accepted at all major European RP resellers: Startselect, Dundle, Eneba, G2A, and Gamivo. It works across all European countries and supports EUR-denominated purchases. No surcharge is applied by these storefronts, though PayPal may apply a currency conversion fee if your account is not set to EUR *(PayPal, 2026)*.

Credit and Debit Cards (Visa/Mastercard)

Visa and Mastercard are accepted at every major European RP reseller. Card payments are available across all EU countries and cover all standard denominations. No surcharges are added by Startselect or Dundle for card transactions *(Startselect, 2026; Dundle, 2026)*. If your preferred local payment method is unavailable, a card payment remains the most universally supported option.

Where to Buy Riot Points Online in Europe

The main options for European buyers are official Riot Games distribution partners and verified gift card resellers. All of the platforms below deliver your RP code by email and on-screen immediately after payment is confirmed.

Startselect is an official Riot Games distribution partner stocking EU-region gift cards for League of Legends and VALORANT. It supports the widest range of European payment methods, including iDEAL (Netherlands), Bancontact (Belgium), Klarna (Germany, Netherlands, Austria), PayPal, and card payments.

Dundle is a well-established European gift card reseller offering Paysafecard compatibility and a straightforward checkout experience. It carries EU League of Legends RP cards in standard denominations with instant email delivery.

Eneba is a gift card marketplace with competitive pricing on EU RP denominations. Codes are delivered instantly to your email and the platform accepts PayPal and card payments across all European markets.

Tips and Things to Watch Out For

Confirm the server region before buying. The product listing should state EUW, EUNE, or simply EU. A code purchased for EU West will not work on an EUNE account, and vice versa. When in doubt, check the product description or contact the seller's support team before purchasing.

Denominations are set by Riot Games. A €10 card gives 1380 RP in League of Legends; a €20 card gives 2800 RP. These amounts are fixed and do not vary between authorised resellers *(Riot Games, 2026)*.

Do not redeem a code you are unsure about. Redemption is final. Once a code is entered in your Riot account, the RP is added and cannot be reversed. If you suspect you bought the wrong region, contact the reseller before redeeming.

Check seller reviews on marketplaces. Eneba and G2A list codes from individual sellers. A listing priced well below the standard denomination value is worth scrutinising. Startselect and Dundle sell codes directly, removing third-party seller risk entirely.

VAT is included in the listed price. Authorised European resellers include VAT in the displayed price. Some international platforms may differ — always check the final total at checkout before confirming payment.
