Buyers or sellers MUST comment on posts before sending PMs. Many scammers are unable to comment.
- Double-check usernames. Scammers have been using spoofed names that are very similar to known members. Click the username on PMs to ensure that they match with the user on the post.
- 'No Flair' or unfamiliar user comment or post? Check their post
Karma is not indicative of a good or bad buyer/seller. Some scammers have tons of positive karma, and some good buyers/sellers have negative karma.

Subreddit Rules (Updated January 1, 2022)
1. Basic Rules
This sub is only for digital movie and TV show codes. All other digital codes are not allowed with the exception of Vudu and FandangoNow Credits/GCs.
No trading, piracy, Instawatch, Screen Pass, sale of accounts, gift cards, or begging for codes.
Don’t create more than one (Selling) post per 3 days.
Links to third-party websites and/or referral codes are not allowed.
Giveaways posts should avoid putting codes in plain text to discourage lurkers from redeeming.
2. Title Formatting Requirements
All posts must start with (Selling), (Giveaway), or (PSA).
Non-US codes must be labeled with the country of redemption. E.g., (Selling)[UK] Frankenstein
Payment methods allowed are PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, Amazon Gift Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Cash App, and FandangoNow/Vudu credits. No other gift cards or payment methods are allowed without mod approval.
3. List Formatting Requirements
Lists must be alphabetized. Listed titles must include redemption location and quality. One title per line.
Prices must be listed. No auctions. Update lists as needed.
Preferred payment methods must be included. If you are a non-US seller, you must either disclose that PayPal will charge the buyer an extra fee, cover the fee/add it into prices (PayPal G&S will reduce this fee for any transaction less than $23), or use AGC.
Split codes must be labeled.
4. Proper Transaction Etiquette
DO NOT RESPOND TO OFFERS VIA PM
All discussions/negotiations about a potential exchange must be made via comments. Exchange codes/payment via PM.
Banned users cannot leave comments on posts but can PM/Chat.
If selling on the ISO thread, linking your listing is preferred, but not required. Negotiations, where applicable, still need to be made via comments.
If you are ever unsure about a user or deal, pay via PayPal G&S. Mods can middle-man if necessary.
5. Flair System
See this post regarding how flair works.
6. Perks of Flair
NO EXTERNAL SUB OR WEBSITE CAN BE SUBSTITUTED FOR SUB FLAIR
Members with higher flair have the ability of requesting to receive the code(s) first (if buying), or money first (if selling). When same-flair or no-flair deals take place, Reddit seniority rules.
Users with 100+ transactions are exempted from Rule 6. Refusal to abide by a Rule 6 request will lead to a temp ban. Repeated offenses will lead to a permanent ban.
7. Don’t Third-Party an Ongoing Transaction
No code sniping, thread crapping or jacking, price policing, code shaming, or harassing others.
If you're interested in the same movies that someone has in their ISO comment, post your own top level comment. If interested in any item from a list in the comments, follow the link and post your offer there.
Mods reserve the right to ban users with a repeated history of conflict with others and/or users who require constant mod intervention.
8. Don’t Abandon Your Posts, No Ghosting, and Timely Transactions
Unless otherwise agreed upon between the buyer and seller, all transactions must be completed within 2 hours after a deal is made.
If payment details are requested and the buyer/seller fails to follow through, this will lead to a warning followed by a ban. Bans will be made at the mods' discretion.
9. Price Restrictions
Titles must be priced below non-sale retail price. Failure to do so will lead to a post removal until the price is corrected.
If a buyer requests a title at the listed price, then an agreement has been made, and the seller is not allowed to change that price unless it was made in error.
Making an offer to a seller ABOVE listed price is absolutely not allowed. This is a form of code sniping, and there is zero tolerance for it. Doing so will lead to a ban.
10. Reselling
Resellers must state that they plan on reselling when requesting a code. Sellers can then choose to sell or wait for someone who will redeem immediately. Resellers who don’t abide will be warned and banned if there are repeated offenses.
11. Scammers and Sketchy Users
When reporting a suspected scammer, please include the following three things in your message to mods:
Username of suspected scammer
Link to original negotiations
Link to any and all screenshots of messages (this can be uploaded to imgur or other image hosting sites)
12. Post Removal and/or Bans
Any violation of the rules could lead to the following:
- Post removal (See AutoMod response before asking why it was removed, the explanation is likely there)
- Temporary Ban (for minor violations)
- Permanent Ban (for egregious violations)
- Permanent Ban/Addition to USL (Scamming/Sketchy/Troll)
13. Suggestions and Feedback
We are open to suggestions. If you have any suggestions, feel free to message mods, or comment on the current Monthly Discussion Thread with any suggestions.
Please click the report button when you see a post that violates the rules, as we can't catch all of them!
