How to transfer/save game data

update 27/01/2017

Saving your account

To save your account, you can go to the "Data Transfer Settings" from the Gear icon when you are in-game, then choose "Data Transfer with KONAMI ID". Register a new account if you don't have it yet and bind it to the account.

June 7th update

Recently, there were problems associated with making a KONAMI ID, which has now been fixed, but a new method to save your account is now added as well. You can now set up a data transfer to back up your account using Google Play Games. Simply log in to your Google Play account when you are in-game, and choose "Data Transfer Setup (Google Play Games)" in the Data Transfer Settings.

Setting up a data transfer

1. Tap a gear-shaped icon

2. Tap "Data Transfer Settings"

3. KONAMI ID or Google Play Games

You can link your game data to both a KONAMI ID, or Google Play Games. In case one of them isn't available, you can use the other to restore your data. You can link your game data to a different KONAMI ID, or Google Play Games if you accidentally used a different or wrong account, but it will replace the previous one. If you plan on transferring from using Google Play services to iTunes, make sure you use KONAMI ID instead.

3.5 KONAMI ID

If you are using KONAMI ID, login or generate first before linking your game data to it.

4. Done!

If you did everything correctly, your account is now saved so you don't have to worry about losing it if your phone is broken, a data error or if you uninstall the game. You will have to re-download all of the data files though.

Using your account on a different device

When you want to use your account on a different device, you will need to log in to your account. When you first launch the game, before you tap "INITIATE LINK!", tap the button below for "Data Transfer" and log into your account.

KONAMI ID

If you set up using a KONAMI ID, simply log in to your registered account that you linked your game data to. If you are using Google Play Services, make sure you are logged in to the right account.

Account Recovery

If you lost your account before you managed set up a data transfer, you can try recovering it from the "Contact Us" and "Submit Player Data Recovery Inquiry" from the gear icon in-game.

1. Tap a gear-shaped icon

2. Tap "Contact Us"

3. Read through the description & Tap the button

4. Submit inquiry

You will need to provide your information as accurately as possible for them to be able to identify that it is yours. Simply giving them your player ID is not enough, since anyone can look that up and is not a very reliable information. Try to remember stuff like deck names, latest card obtained of certain rarity or what device you used it on.

Next step is to wait patiently and check your email for a reply from their support team.

How long does it take to finish the process of transferring the data? I did everything the post said to do and still Konami website does not advance (keeps showing the message "Konami ID during authentication" after 2 hours!) did I do something wrong?

Please help
Does just simply making a Konami ID mean that your progress is saved? Or do you have to go into the data transfer option in the in-game menu? I don't understand what it means when it says to, "bind it (the Konami ID) to your account". I made a Konami ID and tried to do the in-game data transfer, but it won't let me do it. Also, is the data transfer option on the Duel Links title screen the one you use when you want to transfer your progress to another phone or something? In short, I need to know how the two data transfer options are different (or not), and just what I need to do to save my progress. Please, someone help me if they can, because these instructions are kind of vague in parts.

you must link your Konami ID to your Duel Links account in order to save your data. Once you have done that you'll be able to recover it whenever you want or use it on different devices.

I have my old account already logged in in my laptop and I accidentally overwrite new data in my Konami Account (where my old account are saved?) on my new phone. Can I recover it by logging in again on my laptop or I lost my old account forever?

I created the konami id when I started playing, and now I want to install a rom, is my game already saved? or should I rewrite my konami id to save before formatting the device?

Hey just a quick question

Do I have to make a new Konami ID to save progress every once in a while or does the one I have update with new data frequently? Because I made one a while ago and everything but now that I've progressed a lot do I have to make a new one?

I'm also wondering about this actually. Do you have to continue transferring data or will it be transferred automatically after setting up the data trasfer

you have to do it manually, everytime you set up, if your cell or PC gots wrecked, when you install the app, you can data tranfer all data saved the last time you set it up, everything after the set up will be lost
