Why Use Digital Wallets for Game Top-Ups?

Topping up game credits using digital wallets like OVO or GoPay is fast, secure, and often comes with exclusive cashback offers. Compared to buying physical vouchers or using credit cards, e-wallets offer near-instant processing and full transaction history — making them the preferred method for millions of gamers in Indonesia.

This tutorial covers the most common methods for topping up popular games like Mobile Legends, Free Fire, PUBG Mobile, and others using OVO and GoPay.

Method 1: Top Up Directly Through the Game App

Many major games now support direct in-app purchases using Indonesian digital wallets. Here's how it works for most games:

  1. Open your game and navigate to the top-up or diamond/coin purchase section
  2. Select the amount you want to purchase
  3. Choose payment method and look for OVO or GoPay in the list
  4. You'll be redirected to your e-wallet app (or a deep link will open it automatically)
  5. Confirm the payment using your PIN or biometric
  6. Return to the game — credits are usually added within seconds

Note: Not all games support direct wallet payments. If you don't see OVO or GoPay as an option, use Method 2 below.

Method 2: Top Up via Codashop or UniPin

Codashop and UniPin are third-party top-up platforms that support a huge range of games and accept OVO and GoPay. This is often the easiest route.

Using Codashop:

  1. Go to codashop.com or open the Codashop app
  2. Search for your game (e.g., Mobile Legends, Genshin Impact)
  3. Enter your User ID (and Zone ID if required)
  4. Select the top-up denomination you want
  5. Choose OVO or GoPay as your payment method
  6. Enter your registered mobile number for the wallet
  7. Complete the payment in your wallet app when prompted
  8. Credits are delivered almost instantly

Using UniPin:

The process on UniPin is nearly identical. One advantage of UniPin is its support for a wider range of regional games and PC titles alongside mobile games.

Method 3: Top Up via Tokopedia or Shopee

If you use OVO (linked to Tokopedia) or ShopeePay (separate wallet), these marketplaces have dedicated game top-up sections. OVO can be used directly at checkout on Tokopedia's game voucher pages.

  1. Open Tokopedia and search for "top up [game name]"
  2. Select the correct package for your server/region
  3. At checkout, select OVO as payment
  4. Confirm with your OVO PIN

Tips to Get the Most Value

  • Check for promo codes: OVO and GoPay frequently run cashback promos for gaming top-ups — check their apps before paying
  • Double-check your User ID: Entering the wrong ID means your credits go to someone else's account, and refunds are difficult
  • Top up on event days: Many games offer bonus diamonds or in-game items during specific events — time your top-up accordingly
  • Compare platforms: Sometimes Codashop, Tokopedia, or the in-game shop offer different rates for the same amount

What to Do If Your Top-Up Doesn't Arrive

If your payment was deducted but credits didn't arrive:

  1. Wait 5–10 minutes — delays can occur during peak hours
  2. Check your transaction history in the wallet app to confirm the payment succeeded
  3. Contact the platform's customer support (Codashop, UniPin, etc.) with your transaction ID
  4. If the wallet shows "failed" but money was deducted, contact OVO or GoPay support directly — funds are typically reversed within 1–3 business days

Summary

Topping up game credits with OVO or GoPay is quick and reliable once you know the steps. Start with Codashop if you're unsure which method to use — it's the most straightforward platform and supports the widest range of games available in Indonesia.
