What to Do After Buying a LoL Account: Check Delivery, Then Secure It

Aussy 6 min read
What to do after buying a League of Legends account setup guide

You just bought a LoL account. First, sign in and check that the delivered account matches your order before changing any details. Save the order record. Security comes next, once you know you received the right product.

For an AussyELO order, our refund and warranty policy explains this sequence. If something is wrong, contact support before changing credentials or playing. Security changes do not make a bought account immune to Riot enforcement.

Check Delivery Before Changing Credentials

1
Check the Delivered Account
Before changing details
Sign in and compare the account level, server, Blue Essence and ranked access with your order. If you ordered an NA account, confirm it is on NA. For an EUW account, check that the server is Europe West, not another European server. Save screenshots of any mismatch and keep the order confirmation.

Wrong account or credentials that do not work? Stop and contact support before changing details. Check the status through order tracking. Do not post login details in a public Discord channel.

2
Change the Password
After checking delivery
Once the account matches your order, sign in at Riot account management and replace the supplied password with a unique one. Keep it in a password manager. If you find a problem during the delivery checks, ask support before proceeding.
3
Secure the Linked Email
Before playing
Add, verify or replace the linked email with an address only you control. If email login details were supplied, change that email password too. Keep access to the inbox for verification and recovery messages. If you cannot complete this step, contact support rather than guessing a waiting period.
4
Enable Multi-Factor Authentication
Follow the options shown in your account
Enable MFA in Riot account settings and secure your email account wherever its provider offers it. Follow Riot's current MFA instructions for email, Riot Mobile or supported authenticator options. Never share a verification code with someone claiming to help with your order.

Our warranty requires changing the supplied password and verifying or changing the linked email after checking the account. A display-name change is optional. Use the Riot ID guide if you want to rename it, and follow the cooldown shown in your account. Renaming does not remove the account's history.

Check Ranked Access Before Queuing

Level 30 alone does not guarantee ranked access. Riot's game-mode requirements list level 30, at least 20 champions and 10 Swiftplay or Normal Draft games. Check which requirements the delivered account has already completed and what the client still asks for.

Normal games needed to unlock ranked are an access requirement. They are not an anti-cheat "settling" period and do not certify a bought account as safe.

Build Your Champion Pool

Check your balance before spending Blue Essence. Choose champions you can actually play in your main and secondary roles. Prices vary, so use the current client and our BE calculator instead of an old price list.

Not sure where to start? Our easiest champions guide gives you a few sensible options.

Plan before unlocking. Spend BE on champions you intend to use and check the ranked requirement in the client. You do not need to spend the whole balance immediately.

Configure Your Settings

Check your key bindings, quick cast, item slots, minimap size, graphics and chat settings before queuing. Our settings guide can help you work through them.

Habits That Help With Security and Support

Keep Your Order Record
Save the confirmation and delivery details privately. Support needs the order information to investigate a delivery problem or warranty claim.
Check Ranked Requirements
Complete any outstanding normal games shown by the client. Do not treat a few normal games as protection against a later ban.
Keep Login Details Private
Do not share passwords or verification codes. Use the official account site for security changes and keep control of the linked email.
Follow Riot's Rules
Do not use cheats or manipulate ranked games. Account security and good behavior do not remove the separate risks of buying an account.

Security is not ban protection. Changing credentials and enabling MFA help protect access. They do not make a purchase Riot-approved. Read our account-purchase risk guide and Riot's enforcement FAQ for the separate account risks.

What If Something Goes Wrong?

The account does not match your order? Save screenshots and contact us before changing details. Keep the account in its original region.

You cannot secure the email or password? Contact support before playing. Do not assume an unexplained 24-hour or 48-hour delay will fix it.

The account is banned? Save the complete notice and contact support. For our voluntary warranty, report the incident within 30 days and provide the required order details, working credentials and proof privately. Qualifying pre-delivery problems can receive a one-time replacement, subject to the policy. Not every ban is covered, and the timing alone does not prove its cause. Applicable consumer rights still apply.

You lost the new password? Use Riot's official recovery process and the email you control. Do not give your password or verification code to a third-party recovery service.

Keep the Account and Order Secure

Continue to keep control of the email and password. Keep records of support messages and avoid sharing the account. Completing setup does not guarantee an account will remain available.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the first thing I should do after buying a LoL account?

Sign in and check the delivered level, region, Blue Essence and ranked access against your order before changing account details. If anything is wrong, save screenshots and contact support first.

Should I play ranked immediately after buying a LoL account?

Check the client requirements first. Riot lists level 30, at least 20 champions and 10 Swiftplay or Normal Draft games for ranked access. Completing normal games does not provide protection against a ban.

A Riot ID change is optional. Use Riot account management and follow the cooldown shown there. Renaming does not remove the account history or make the purchase Riot-approved.

How do I secure the account after checking delivery?

After confirming the account matches your order, change the supplied password, add or verify an email you control and secure its password too. Enable MFA wherever available before playing.

What if my purchased LoL account gets banned?

Save the complete notice and contact support. Our voluntary warranty requires reporting the incident within 30 days with the required evidence. Qualifying pre-delivery problems can receive a one-time replacement, subject to the policy; not every ban is covered. Applicable consumer rights still apply.
