28 Goated bonus drop codes in week 41 of 2026 — $247 and where the gates sat

Goated spent week 41 of 2026 (5–11 Oct 2026) posting 28 drop codes worth $247 between them. On the everyday channel that came to one code every 6h 4m at the median. The busiest hour was 00:00 UTC. All of it is counted from Goated's own public posts, in UTC.

What landed

A single channel accounts for every code below. Daily drop carried 28 codes, typically $5 each, on a median gate of $15,000 wagered. 46% of the 28 codes with a stated value came in under $5 — small money, and that is the honest shape of this feed. Across everything, the median code paid about $0.33 per $1,000 of the gate it asked for — the number to hold in your head before you chase one. The arithmetic behind it is in how bonus drop codes work.

When they landed

There is no schedule for these. There is a pattern, though. The single busiest hour was 00:00 UTC with 5 codes. Widen it to a three-hour window and 00:00–03:00 UTC held 7 codes, 25% of everything posted. Sunday was the heaviest day with 4 codes.

On the everyday channel the median gap between codes was 6h 4m. The longest silence ran 7h 44m. Every one of the 7 days we watched produced at least one code. The first landed at 01:30 UTC on 5 Oct and the last at 18:16 UTC on 11 Oct.

The biggest codes

Size and gate move together, every time. The largest was $25, which needed $75,000 wagered in the last 7 days and came out of a $750 pool. That pool divides into roughly 30 claims at most — so the code was gone long before everyone eligible saw it. We do not know how many people actually got it; nobody publishes that. Behind it: 1FCMA6 at $25 ($75,000 wagered), PUM0AC at $25 ($75,000 wagered), DDQH62 at $25 ($75,000 wagered). The gates this period ran from $2,500 at the low end to $75,000 at the top, with a median of $15,000.

Versus last week

Set that next to the week before it: code count held at 28. Face value went up from $192 to $247, a change of 29%. The busiest hour moved from 06:00 to 00:00 UTC.

What it means for you

• Know your gate before you chase. Half the codes this week wanted more than $15,000 wagered in the trailing 7 days. On the everyday channel the typical code was $5 against a $15,000 gate — that is the realistic one to aim at. Under the gate a code returns "not eligible" however fast you paste it, and every error message decoded covers the rest of the messages.
• Be around 00:00–03:00 UTC. That window held 25% of this week's codes, and Sunday was the busiest day. Convert it to your own clock once and you stop missing them; the drop schedule board keeps a rolling version of this chart.
• Pools drain in hours, not days. The published pools behind this week's 28 codes add up to $10,500, split first come first served. A code four hours old is usually finished, which is why every status label on this site is age-based and says so. To catch one while it is open, watch the live Goated wire.

Every code above has its own page with the exact post time, the gate, and where to paste it; the code archive keeps them after they die, and the rest of the Drop Reports covers the other platforms and the months.

How to read this: every figure above is counted from the posts Goated published on its own public channels, timestamped in UTC. Statuses on this site are derived from a code's age, not from any private feed — we do not know who claimed what, and no page here will pretend otherwise. Face value is what the post said, not what anyone received.
