If you've typed "CDKeys discount code" and landed on pages about Loaded, you're not lost: CDKeys now trades as Loaded, and that's how TopCashback lists it ("Loaded CD Keys"). The pricing model hasn't changed — keys are usually already well below RRP — so codes are small (5–10%) and rare. What does move the needle is being a new customer on the cashback listing (up to 5%), and knowing which circulating codes are dead. Here's the honest map.

Disclosure: cashback links here are my referral links — free for you (you get a £10 bonus). I haven't bought from CDKeys/Loaded through cashback; rates are as listed on the day.

What actually discounts a Loaded (CDKeys) order

Route Saving Reality check
Loaded's own pricing Keys typically priced well under RRP The main saving — no code needed
Promo codes 5–10% when they run Coupon sites list a "10% off Loaded" code; verify it applies at checkout
Circulating codes (GIMME10, FALLSALE5, GAMER2025) Mostly expired Reddit threads are a year old; don't rely on them
Newsletter / app Occasional member-only codes Sign up if you buy regularly
Cashback (new customer) up to 5% Stacks with sale pricing; voided by unapproved codes

Cashback at Loaded — tiers and exclusions

Purchase TopCashback
New customer up to 5%
Existing customer up to 2%
Top-up products (wallet credit etc.) 2%
Excluded Gift cards; certain PlayStation Plus subscriptions
Voids cashback Any code not approved on the listing

On a £45 game, a first-time buyer gets about £2.25; an existing customer about 90p. A 10% code is worth £4.50 — so an unlisted code beats cashback unless it's approved on the listing, in which case you get both.

For perspective, digital goods can pay far more via cashback than game keys: my McAfee rows and a 120% VPN bounty in my ledger dwarf 5%. Gaming keys are a low-margin category; treat cashback as a tidy-up, not a deal.

The stack

  1. Compare the key price across resellers first — Loaded's price is often the discount.
  2. Click through TopCashback to Loaded; if you're new, this is your 5% moment.
  3. Check the listing's approved-codes box. Approved code → use it and keep cashback. Unlisted 10% code → use the code, forget cashback (it's bigger).
  4. Check the key's region and platform before paying — keys are sold globally and a region-locked key is the classic refund headache.
  5. Pay by card, same session; wait for the key email.

FAQ — real questions people ask Google

Where can I find CDKeys discount codes? On Loaded's own site (newsletter/app promotions) and mainstream coupon sites, which currently list a 10% code. Treat codes on year-old Reddit threads as expired, and check the TopCashback listing for approved codes that don't void cashback.

What is the GIMME10 code? A 10%-off code that circulates for several retailers (it appears in searches for Funky Pigeon too). It isn't on Loaded's own promotions today; if it's accepted at checkout it counts as an unapproved code and voids cashback.

What happened to CDKeys in the UK? CDKeys rebranded as Loaded. TopCashback lists the merchant as "Loaded" and describes it as "Loaded CD Keys"; the store and catalogue continue under the new name.

Is CDKeys UK legit? It's one of the longest-running key resellers, with a large customer base and a 4.0 member rating on TopCashback's listing. The practical risk isn't fraud — it's buying a key for the wrong region or platform, so check both before paying.
