Shift codes come in two main varieties:

Golden Keys, which open a special crate in the city of Sanctuary. That crate is guaranteed to serve up a purple rarity item. In a game with billions of randomly generated guns, it was a tantalizing way to skip the RNG and get some great weapons.
Special skins: There are unique skins and heads for each Borderlands 2 character that can only be unlocked with Shift codes.

Redeem Shift codes here: https://shift.gearboxsoftware.com/rewards

SHiFT Codes:

There is a limit of 999 keys per account. ENSURE YOU WILL NOT EXCEED THIS before redeeming a code.
For the class mod SHiFT codes, the items will appear in the backpack of, and be the same level as, the first character loaded after code redemption. If the character is above Level 51, ensure you are in "Ultimate Vault Hunter" mode to receive the item of the appropriate level.

How do I use Borderlands 2/Borderlands Pre-Sequel SHiFT codes?
There are a couple easy ways to redeem Borderlands Shift codes for Golden Keys and other in-game items.

  1. Online: Go to Shift.GearboxSoftware.com and create a free account, or login using your Steam account. Once you link the Shift site to your Steam account, go to the Rewards tab and copy/paste a key to redeem it.

  2. In-game: Go to Main Menu > Extras > Shift Code. Once you're on that menu, you'll see a list of previously redeemed Shift codes. Click the Shift Code button at that bottom of that window, then paste in the 25-digit Shift code. Done!

Borderlands VIP Program Codes
This is a Program set up by Gearbox to reward players who have a vested interest in the community. Go to https://borderlands.com/en-US/vip/ to log on and start earning points!

Do activities such as watch announce trailers, go to the Official Borderlands Twitter, Facebook and Instagram to get points. Redeem those points for rewards which are currently only golden keys for borderlands 1 and 2, and some wallpapers. Skins, heads and possibly weapons will be added at a later date, to be determined.

PLEASE NOTE: Season 1 Rewards WILL BE AVAILABLE during other seasons.

You can redeem the codes by going to borderlands.com -> INSIDERS-> REDEEM CODE.

Note: for the content creator codes, you can only do 4 (four) of them. Also, the creator codes can only be redeemed every 22 days or so.

Well, now that I remember something, enhanced version may ask for GOTY saves and take em? If then, that would be awesome.

Yep, cannot find any gold chest, checked two locations with the spots with some videos.

Yup GOTY Enhanced allows you to import your characters from GOTY, so you can just do that.

You should do it rather sooner than later, it adds a bit of character customization, improved graphics, and a minimap. :)

just did, it imported the character almost instantly and 1/4 of the achievements. Some achievements trigger when you do something that could trigger them (sold a weapon and got the sell 50 weapons and 1.000.000 coins)

If anyone has trouble redeeming DOKTORFROID-BL3LAUNCH back then, you can redeem it now, assuming you redeemed the other creator codes within a few days after it's listed here.

Though a relatively new title in the series, Borderlands 3 still has a couple of SHiFT Codes that do not appear to ever expire. These often come in the form of community day events but in some cases they were publicly released as part of the Diamond Loot Edition of the game. The list above is every known permament SHiFT Code for Borderlands 3 along with its reward.
