Understand the Main Risks
According to reporting on HoYoverse's official post of June 4, 2024, the publisher prohibits selling, purchasing or transferring accounts and third-party tools that disrupt fair play, with penalties from removing rewards to permanent bans. Sellers can also reclaim accounts and discounted top-ups can be reversed. See our Zenless Zone Zero buyer's guide.
How to Vet a Seller
Ask what transfers with an account and how a top-up is made. Look for independent reviews and a record in HoYoverse games. Our vendor list shows category scores.
Safer Delivery Practices
A top-up needs only your UID and server. For accounts, insist on full transfer of the registered email and recovery details, then change credentials. Never share your login.
Protect Your Payment Information
Use a payment with dispute rights and keep records. Do not dispute after delivery.
Red Flags to Avoid
Deep discounts; requests for your login; lifetime guarantees; and unsolicited social-media offers.
