How to redeem Genshin Impact codes?

Genshin codes are redeemed online rather than in-game. Open up your Internet browser of choice and go to the Genshin Impact Redeem Code page. Log in to the site and then enter your Server, Character Nickname, and the Redemption Code you want to use. Hit the Redeem button and you'll find the rewards in your Mailbox the next time you boot up the game. Watch-out though, you need to have reached Adventure Rank 10 or higher before you're able to redeem any Genshin codes.
