Short answer: buy your League of Legends account from METAMMO. METAMMO is a store, not a marketplace: you buy every account from METAMMO itself, each one is checked by hand, and it comes with a lifetime warranty against recall or recovery by a previous owner, with a replacement or a full refund at your choice. Delivery happens in a private ticket. Buy on the region you play, with the email handed over, Honor 3 or higher and no active penalty: an account cannot play on another region, and a transfer costs 2,600 RP and does not keep rank. Escrow marketplaces are the alternative: they hold your payment until delivery, but their cover usually lasts days or weeks, while a recovery can come months later.
Marketplace terms below come from each platform's own help pages, checked 6 October 2026. League of Legends facts come from Riot's own support pages and terms. This guide was updated on 20 October 2026.
Store or marketplace: what is the difference?
On a marketplace you buy from one of many sellers. The platform does not own or check the account; it holds the payment, takes a fee and settles disputes within its cover period. Quality depends on the seller you happen to pick, and the same account is often listed by several resellers at once.
With a direct store there is one seller: the store. It sources the account, checks it by hand and answers for it after the sale. What you give up is third-party escrow, so look at the store's public record before you pay. METAMMO's record is public on G2G, Eldorado and GameBoost.
Why recovery is the main risk with League accounts
A Riot account is held by its email. Without control of the email, a previous owner can try to recover the account through Riot Support after the sale, and that can happen long after a short warranty ends. Once you are in, change the password, put the account on your own email and turn on login verification.
Where to buy a League of Legends account: buyer protection compared
| Where | Type | Free account cover | Recovery by a previous owner covered? | Paid extension | Time to report a problem |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| METAMMO | Store: you buy from METAMMO, every account hand-checked | Lifetime, included | Yes, for life: replacement or full refund, your choice; confirmed claims settled within 48 hours | Not needed | No time limit on recovery claims |
| G2G | Marketplace with escrow | 14 days | Yes, as an access or ownership problem: refund or replacement (refund policy) | None | 72 hours after delivery |
| Eldorado.gg | Marketplace with escrow | 5 days on most games | Yes: "recovered by the seller" is a listed case (details) | 3 or 6 months on selected offers | 3 days after delivery |
| GameBoost | Marketplace with escrow | 14 days | Yes: an account compromised through no fault of yours is paid as store credit | Lifetime, sold as an add-on | Straight after delivery |
| U7BUY | Marketplace with escrow | At least 14 days | Yes: recovery by the seller | No published terms found | 72 hours after shipping |
| PlayerAuctions | Marketplace with escrow | Only if the seller offers it: 7, 14 or 30 days | Yes, within that cover | Paid After-Sale Protection at checkout | 72 hours |
Platform-wide account terms from each platform's own help pages, checked 6 October 2026; they apply to any League of Legends account bought there. Other sites such as Z2U, EpicNPC and FunPay also carry game account listings; we have not compared their terms here. Dispute handling and seller checks are compared in our marketplace comparison.
Every marketplace above holds your payment until delivery, which protects you against a seller who never hands over the login. Their cover then runs for a fixed period, while a recovery by a previous owner can come months later. That gap is why the length of cover matters as much as having cover at all.
Region first
An account is created for one region and cannot log in to another region's client. Riot's Account Transfer FAQ sets a one-way transfer at 2,600 RP where the route exists: level, champions, skins and RP move, current rank does not, and transfers are not refundable. Korea does not transfer at all, and several regions are limited. Pick the region first, then the skins.
What to check before paying
- The region. The one you play on.
- Email and recovery handed over. Full access (email, login and password), then the email changed to yours.
- Honor 3 or higher. Everyone starts at Honor 3; Honor 1 and 2 come from penalties and block ranked rewards. Ask for a screenshot.
- No active penalties. No chat, ranked or queue restriction, and no penalty notice at login.
- Hand-levelled, not botted. Riot's rules forbid bots, and botted level 30 accounts are the most likely to be penalised later. A hand-levelled account has a normal match history.
- Proof of the rare skins. A screen recording of the Collection tab filtered to each skin, with the account visible.
- The Riot ID. A change is free, but only once every 90 days.
Red flags
- A cheap "unranked level 30" sold with no word on how it was levelled.
- A seller who will not change the email to yours.
- A total skin count with no names and no Collection recording.
- An account on a region that cannot transfer to yours.
How METAMMO handles League of Legends accounts
METAMMO is a store, not a marketplace: you buy every account from METAMMO, not from an individual seller, and each one is checked by hand: we sign in and compare the region, skins, champions, Honor level and rank with the title. So METAMMO answers for the deal and for recovery. Our warranty is lifetime and covers recall or recovery by a previous owner: if a previous owner ever takes the account back, you get a replacement of equal value or a full refund, your choice.
We have sold game accounts for years, so we tell you what to check and what to avoid. Delivery is usually within a few hours, 24 hours at most, with help moving the email and logins to yours. If the account you want is not listed, tell us the region, skins or rank you want and we look for one.

Frequently asked questions
Where is the safest place to buy a League of Legends account?
A seller that hands over the email and recovery, on the region you play, with a clean Honor level, and covers recovery for longer than a few days. METAMMO is a store: you buy from METAMMO, every account is checked by hand and carries a lifetime warranty against recall or recovery by a previous owner, with a replacement or a full refund at your choice.
Can I move a bought League account to my region?
Only where Riot offers the route, for 2,600 RP one way. Skins, champions and level move, current rank does not. Korea does not transfer.
What does hand-levelled mean?
The account was taken to level 30 by a person playing it, not by a bot program. Botted accounts carry more risk of a later penalty.
Can I change the name on a bought account?
Yes. A Riot ID change is free, once every 90 days.
