How to Redeem Police Chief Codes
Police Chief redeem codes are the fastest way to grab free Gems, gold coins and advance summons while your precinct is still on a shoestring budget. This guide shows the exact redemption path (profile menu, Settings, Redeem Code), the level gates some codes hide behind, and the fix for every error the game throws at you.
Where is the redeem button?
Redemption lives entirely inside the game: tap your chief avatar in the top-left of the main screen, open Settings in the lower-right of the profile panel, and select Redeem Code. Two gates matter — the redemption option stays locked until you finish the early base-building tutorial, and limited-time codes often require Chief’s Office level 7 while the permanent launch codes only need level 2.
Full step-by-step guide
- 1 Launch Police Chief and complete the early tutorial missions until the profile menu is fully unlocked.
- 2 Tap the chief avatar in the top-left corner of the main screen.
- 3 Open Settings at the lower-right of the profile menu.
- 4 Select Redeem Code from the options list.
- 5 Paste the code exactly as written, keeping the original capitalisation.
- 6 Confirm and collect the reward from the confirmation message or your in-game mailbox.

Codes not working? Try these fixes
The Redeem Code button is missing
The redemption option is locked behind the early base-building tutorial. Keep completing missions until the profile menu is fully open — every tracker notes this as the first thing to check when codes appear to not exist.
The code was rejected but has no expiry date
Permanent codes like DCSPATROL26 and FBCHIEF2026 require Chief’s Office level 2, and most limited-time event codes require level 7. If your office is below the gate the code fails regardless of its status — upgrade first, then retry.
It says already redeemed or invalid
Codes are one per account and case-sensitive, so paste rather than type and strip any stray spaces. A rejection alone does not prove expiry — cross-check the code’s status on our codes page before giving up.
