On this page: Animal Crossing: New Horizons: Pocket Camp Items - How To Get Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Items In New Horizons
What do I need to get Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp items in Animal Crossing: New Horizons?
You will need:
- your iOS or Android device (obviously) with Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp installed
- your Switch with Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
- an internet connection
- both Pocket Camp and New Horizons must be linked to the same Nintendo Account
What Pocket Camp items will I get in New Horizons?
There are a variety of in-game items available and you'll also get 50 Leaf Tickets to use in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp.
Step-by-Step guide - How to get Animal Cross Pocket Camp items in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
- Firstly, fire up Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp on your phone or smart device.
- Tap 'My Nintendo' from the in-game menu (it's in the lower right corner of the screen, just above 'Social'). If this is your first time playing Pocket Camp, you'll have to complete the tutorial and get far enough through the game to visit recreation spots and design your own campsite.
- If you haven't linked Pocket Camp to your Nintendo Account yet, you'll have to do so. It's simple enough: tap Create/Link Nintendo Account, and then selecting Create New Account. If your Nintendo Account is linked already, move to step 4
- Open the 'My Nintendo' from step 1 again, find a reward called 'Animal Crossing: New Horizons Special Order Ticket + 50 Leaf Tickets' and tap it.
- You should now see a 16-digit download code which you'll use to get the items in New Horizons. Write it down, screengrab it or just leave the game running while you fetch your Switch. 50 Leaf Tickets will automatically be added to your Pocket Camp mailbox (in the menu) and don't worry if you accidentally close the app before noting the code - you can find it again via the 'My Nintendo' rewards screen.
- On your Switch head to the Nintendo eShop. Remember to use the same Nintendo Account you use to play Pocket Camp.
- Hit 'Enter Code' on the bottom left corner of the screen. You probably know what to do now...
- Once you've entered the code, close the eShop and fire up Animal Crossing: New Horizons (make sure you've downloaded the Day 1 patch).
- Pay a visit to the Nook Stop. If you don't have access to Nook Stop, you'll have to play a little bit, but you'll soon encounter it.
- That's it! You can now get your chubby round hands on those shiny Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp items by ordering them through Promotions in Nook Shopping.

Does this have to be accessed through the My Nintendo page within Pocket Camp or can it be done in a web browser on PC? Also, is this for all regions?
Never heard about it to be possible in Germany too. Gonna give it a try when I'm back home 😊
I'm guessing most of the commenters in this article last week who were ok with getting ACNH items into PC but didn't want it the other way around arent' going to be too happy now.

They'll probably look like my avatar stalking Isabelle. 😂
Edit: Just out of curiosity, somebody at NL has tested this to see each person gets a different code, right, and it isn't just 1 code that everyone and anyone can use?
Don't need another 50 leaf for ACPC, I'm done after this swap, but I'll take the swag.
And whatever swag my amiibo can give.
I rearranged them last night, and finally, sniff sniff, took my amiibo out of their boxes to use them, so I can reach the AC amiibo from my seat on the couch.
Hello, big problem
I've been playing Animal Crossing Pocket camp for a while now admittedly I took the pack well so I got the code
I entered the code for the game, only problem impossible to launch the game, always the same message saying that I have to buy it, what to do?
@Bakantsu That is a big problem. I'm assuming you already bought the game and aren't thinking you get the $60 game for free using this code.
Did you make sure the MyNintnedo account you attached your Pocket Camp game to is the same one you entered the code to on your Switch? I have 4 accounts on our Switch and I always have to make sure it's on mine, it always wants to go back to the last person who played it.
Other than that I got nothing, sorry, Good luck.
@rjejr Actually I found it suspicious that it did not work, so after I check that it was the same account and actually it's the same account so I knewActually I thought it was suspicious that it didn't work, so after I checked it was the same account and actually it's the same account so I'm a little lost
"your iOS or Android device (obviously)"
Just wanted to point out I'm playing PC on my 10" Amazon Fire tablet. It's unrooted, just had to install the Google Play Store which took about 5 minutes. Just putting it out there since it may not be obvious to some people that a Fire Tablet is Android since Amazon puts it's own OS over it to make you think it isn't.
ACPC is NOT in the Amazon app store, but you can download Pokemon Magikarp Jump. Or, you know, not
Trying to get my code now, 288MB download this morning.
So is this only appearing under special conditions? I see a reward for 50 tickets, but it doesn't say anything about NH...
@Bakantsu Sorry, I can't think of anything else. Hopefully somebody else will read this later and can help you out.
@KayFiOS Did you have a 288MB download this morning, it might have been in there?
Also, it confused me for awhile. I went back into MyNintnedo in ACPC but there wasn't any code. I got out and went back in a 3rd time and the code was finally there. I should have caffeinated up first.
The code can also be found on the MyNintnedo website on PC (or mobile too I suppose). Look under: Point Summary, Points history.
Man, MyNintneod is still so messed up you can get 30 plat coins every week for signing into the eShop on Wii U and 3DS but still nto Switch. MyNintnedo really does hate Switch.
"Nintendo eShop
Sign in to Nintendo eShop on a Wii U or Nintendo 3DS system (weekly) Mission details +30"
@rjejr Figured it out. Needed to open My Nintendo from within PC. I was trying to go to the website.
@KayFiOS Seems like everything w/ Nintendo is always 1 or 2 steps more complicated than it should be. If both games - mobile and Switch - are linked to our MyNintendo account then why do we need a code? Isn't that what linking them is for, to show we have both games?
Cool, just 10 simple steps, with multiple time sinks (i.e. tutorials, countless menus and sub-menus, several hundred lines of text, 16-digit codes) along the way.
I'd expect nothing more and nothing less from Nintendo. At least they are consistent in making the most non-intuitive obtuse online integration.
Thanks for this, I got all my stuff ok. Gonna be a LOT of mail getting delivered tomorrow. 📬
what items are supposed to appear in Nook Shopping after redeeming the code? no items seemed to have been added for purchasing after entering the code.
