Preliminary information
Before going into the details of the procedure and explaining yourself how to unlock galaxy skin on fortnite, it seems important to me to explain what you need to unlock the latter.
First, you must have purchased a device from the range Samsung Galaxy participating in the promotion related to Fortnite (eg Galaxy S10 + or Galaxy Note 9). The skin obtainable may vary depending on the smartphone at your disposal and I therefore advise you to inform yourself with a short online search to understand which skin you will get (eg Galaxy S10 + is linked to the costume Iconic, while Galaxy Note 9 to custom Galaxy). Other than that, it is important to know that each device allows you to redeem the skin once and within a precise Expiration date (which Samsung may possibly postpone or revise).
A second fundamental requirement is to have a Samsung account us credit card associated. Don't worry though: Samsung won't ask you to pay any amount to get the Fortnite costume - it's just a verification method. The accepted circuits are Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover Card e Diners Club International.
To create a Samsung account, you need to connect to the official website of the Korean company and press on the item REGISTER HERE. After that, you need to tick the box I have read and accept the above and click the blue button ACCEPT.
At this point, you need to type theemail address Password password confirmation, your name, your last name and date of birth and complete the CAPTCHA, spuntando the house I'm not a robot and following the instructions that appear on the screen.
