ussnorway: yes its alway legal for YOU to redeem codes

Ancient-Red-Dragon: No it's not. I could think of a situation where it is not always legal for the code redeemer to redeem a GOG code.

For example, say the code redeemer hacked someone's else's GOG account after the owner of the account had purchased a gift code, but before the time when the account owner had distributed that gift code to its intended recipient, and then the hacker redeemed that gift code on a GOG account that they created.

That would be an example of an illegal redemption of a GOG code.
thats an extreme case but its still legal since no money or credit card was used and Gog allowed it.

i'll give you a more likely example;
user 1 lives in a country that bans a certain game, lets say Australia and GirlsXXX
gog sends this user an email with a code to buy this game 10% off

user 1 says ok [actually pays money] and gets the game added to their account... two laws have now been brocken but its Gog that allowed this and user 1 has NOT done anything illegal
