Borderlands 4 Guide: All SHiFT Codes for Golden Keys
What Are SHiFT Codes in Borderlands 4?
SHiFT codes function as unique redemption keys that grant you Golden Keys, which are a premium currency used exclusively for Golden Chests. These treasure boxes can be found in major locations such as The Launchpad, Carcadia, Belton's Bore, and The Lockaway.
Each Golden Key you redeem opens one chest, rewarding you with:
- Legendary weapons with powerful stats
- Rare gear and armor pieces
- Cosmetic skins for character customization
- High-tier equipment scaled to your current level

Golden Chest rewards scale with your character level, so consider saving keys for higher levels to maximize value.
