Code Rewards: Hourglasses and Trading Tokens
When you redeem an active promotional code, you'll most often receive hourglasses , items that reduce the waiting time to open packs . Each hourglass typically subtracts one hour from the timer, and if you accumulate them, you can open several packs at once (for example, you need 120 to open 10 packs instantly). Sometimes you'll also receive trade tokens , useful for exchanging missing cards with friends, although it's expected that these will be replaced by Iris Dust in future updates .

Active code this month and validity
During July, the main promotional code is 33V33S5MM3R . By entering this code following the procedure above, the user receives 24 hourglasses , which is equivalent to opening two additional packs beyond the daily limit. This promotion is available until August 31st , so don't miss out to take full advantage of this free benefit.
If new codes appear, they're usually announced on the website and official accounts, so it's a good idea to stay tuned so you don't miss any opportunities to expand your collection for free.
Tips to take advantage of the codes
If you want to maximize your rewards, it's best to save your hourglasses until a new expansion is released—like the recent Eevee Grove—or when you're ready to open a lot of booster packs at once to try your luck with rare cards. Trade tokens can be especially valuable now that they're scheduled to be retired, so it's a good idea to use them before they're converted into other items.
