How to Sign Up for a Free Nintendo Switch Online Trial Membership

Applies to:  Nintendo Switch Family, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, Nintendo Switch - OLED Model


In this article, you'll learn how to set up your free 7-day trial Nintendo Switch Online membership.

Note
  • When you start the free trial, auto-renewal will automatically be activated for an individual 30-day membership, to begin when the trial ends.
  • The Nintendo Account User Agreement, including the Purchase and Subscription terms, applies.
  • When you use a credit card to set up automatic renewal, we may receive updated information from your issuing bank or applicable payment service provider about the credit card. This means we may update the saved credit card's number and expiration date if it is replaced or it has expired. This helps ensure that your subscriptions automatically renew and your purchases complete successfully, even if your credit card information changes.

Nintendo Account users in countries where the Nintendo eShop is available can sign up for a free trial individual membership for Nintendo Switch Online.

  • The free trial is available once per Nintendo Account.
  • The free trial can’t be used with Nintendo Accounts that already have an active individual or family membership. However, it can be used after the end of your existing membership. (Note that your auto-renewal settings may need to be adjusted for your current membership.)

Complete These Steps:

You can start the 7-day free trial either by using your Nintendo Switch system, or by visiting the Nintendo website.
