League of Legends: How to Check Lifetime Spending – Data Request Guide

Why I Went Looking for My League of Legends Spending

The first time I tried to check how much money I’d sunk into League of Legends in 2026, every old guide pointed me to a “spending history” page that just said it was under construction. I bounced between client menus, my Riot Account page, and even in-game purchase history before accepting the obvious: the old method was dead.

What finally worked was using Riot’s formal data-request flow on their support site. It sounds like a slow ticket system, but the surprise is that it actually gives you an instant lifetime total for your current account and region as soon as you hit a big red button labeled Show Me the Money.

This guide walks you through the exact clicks I use now whenever I want to see my League spending, explains what the total covers (and what it misses), and points out the small gotchas that tripped me up the first couple of times. The whole process takes about 2-3 minutes if you have your login details handy.

What This Method Actually Shows You

Before we dive into the steps, it helps to be clear about what you’re getting out of this. Riot quietly removed their old dedicated spending page around mid‑2024, and the official way to get your numbers now is through a personal data request inside Riot Support.

When you follow the flow correctly and hit Show Me the Money, you’ll see:

  • Your lifetime real-money spending with Riot on that account in your current region (e.g. “$32.00”).
  • The total value of purchases converted into Riot Points (RP) for League of Legends.
  • All RP-related spending tied to that account: skins, chromas, champions, boosts, event passes, etc.

that said, it will not automatically include:

  • Purchases on the same Riot ID in a different region (EUW vs NA, for example).
  • Spending on other Riot games (like VALORANT) unless you repeat the same process under those game categories.
  • Detailed transaction-by-transaction history; you get totals, not a full invoice list.

So if, like me, you’ve jumped between servers or tried other Riot titles, you’ll want to repeat these steps per region and per game to build a true “lifetime across everything” picture. For pure League of Legends on one region, though, this method is enough on its own.

What You Need Before You Start

It’s a simple process, but there are a few things worth double‑checking first. I learned the hard way that being on the wrong account or region gives you a clean-looking but misleading result.

  • Your Riot Account login for the League account you want to check.
  • Two-factor auth ready if you have it enabled (email or authenticator app).
  • Correct region selected in the Riot client / account page (NA, EUW, BR, etc.). The support site reads that context.
  • A browser where you’re happy to log in to Riot Support (desktop is easiest).

If you’re in a region like Brazil that now requires age verification to access Riot services, make sure that process is completed first, or your account access (and therefore your ability to see spending) may be restricted.

Step 1: Log into the Correct Riot Account and Region

This sounds trivial, but this is where I messed up the first time. I logged into an old smurf and got a neat little “$0.00” that made me feel great for about ten seconds.

Here’s what I do now:

  • Open the Riot Client and confirm you’re on the account you actually spend on (check your Summoner Name and friends list).
  • Note the region in the top-right or in your account settings (e.g. EU West, North America, Brazil).
  • Once you’re sure it’s the right account and region, leave the client open and switch to your browser.
  • Go to Riot’s main login page and sign in using the same Riot ID and password. If you’re already logged in from previous sessions, double‑check the username in the top right.

Getting this correct means the support flow you’ll use in the next steps will pull data from the right place. If you juggle multiple Riot IDs, I recommend doing this whole guide from start to finish for one account at a time.

Step 2: Open Riot Support and Start a Ticket the Right Way

The main trap here is clicking the wrong category. Riot has a lot of similar‑sounding options, and only one specific path exposes the spending total instantly.

Once you’re logged into your Riot Account in your browser:

  • Go to Riot’s support site and look for the button or link that says something like Submit a ticket.
  • When it asks you to pick a game, select League of Legends (not “Riot Account” or a different title).
  • Under the issue type or category dropdown, choose something along the lines of Account Management or Account, Data & Riot ID. You want the section that clearly mentions data or account information, not gameplay or technical issues.
  • From there, look for an option called Data Request or similar. Riot sometimes tweaks labels slightly, but it will be grouped under account/data management rather than store or billing.

If you land on a generic contact form that asks you to describe your issue manually, you’ve probably picked the wrong category. Go back and try again until you see something specifically about data requests or personal information.

Step 3: Choose “Do Formal Personal Data Request”

Once you’re in the data-related section, Riot will present different ways to handle your information. This is where the key option hides.

On the data request page, you should see an option labelled very close to:

Do formal personal data request

This is what you want. It sounds like you’re about to trigger a legal‑style GDPR export that takes days, but Riot has integrated the spending total into this flow as a quick lookup.

  • Click on Do formal personal data request.
  • If Riot asks you to confirm your account or region again, do it.
  • You’ll be taken to a screen or section that lists several predefined request types.

Among those predefined options is the one we need to reveal your League of Legends spending.

Step 4: Select the Spending Request and Hit “Show Me the Money”

This is the part that old guides miss entirely, because it didn’t exist on the older purchase-history page. Riot now treats your spending total as a specific type of data request.

On the formal data request page, look for the wording:

I want to know how much money I've spent with Riot Games

Here’s what to do:

  • Select or click the option that matches I want to know how much money I've spent with Riot Games.
  • When you select it, the page should update and reveal a prominent red button labelled Show Me the Money.
  • Click Show Me the Money.

Unlike the old ticket-based methods, you don’t have to wait for an email or a support agent. The total appears right there on the page, usually within a second or two, showing the cumulative amount you’ve spent on that Riot Account in that region across all time.

On my test account that I only used for a couple of skins, it literally popped up something like “$32.00” instantly. On my main, it was… a lot more, and it stung enough that I triple-checked I was on the right account.

Step 5: Understanding and Repeating the Check for Other Regions or Games

Seeing the number is one thing; understanding what it represents is another. Riot’s tool is very literal: it only knows about purchases tied to that specific account on that specific region.

Here’s how I interpret and expand on the result:

  • League-only total per region: For most players who have only ever played on one server, the on-screen number is effectively your lifetime League of Legends spend. It covers your RP top‑ups and anything bought with that RP.
  • Multi-region players: If you’ve transferred between regions (say, NA to EUW), or created separate accounts in different regions, you need to repeat this entire process after switching to each account/region combination. Add the totals together manually.
  • Other Riot games: This particular flow when started under League of Legends focuses on spending related to your Riot account in that context. To see spending for other games like VALORANT, go back to Submit a ticket, choose the other game, and follow the same data request > formal request > “Show Me the Money” flow there.

Right now there’s no unified multi‑game, multi‑region dashboard. It’s a bit tedious if you’re deep into the Riot ecosystem, but it’s still faster than the old waiting-for-an-email days.

Common Problems and How I Solved Them

Because I bounced off this process a few times, here are the main issues I hit and how I fixed them.

Issue 1: I Don’t See the “Show Me the Money” Button

This usually meant I was not inside the formal personal data request flow, or I hadn’t selected the right prewritten option.

  • Make sure you chose Do formal personal data request, not a generic contact form.
  • On that page, explicitly select the option that says I want to know how much money I've spent with Riot Games. The red button only appears once you pick that.
  • If the text looks localized (translated), look for wording about “how much I’ve spent with Riot Games” in your language.

Issue 2: The Total Looks Way Too Low or Zero

When I saw “$0.00” on a smurf that I was sure had at least one skin, it turned out to be user error on my end.

  • Confirm you’re logged into the correct Riot Account in your browser (check your Riot ID and tag).
  • Make sure that account is the one tied to the League profile where you bought skins. If you’ve renamed or linked accounts over the years, it’s easy to mix them up.
  • Check your region: if your purchases were on EUW and you’re currently set to NA with a fresh account, the number will obviously be low.
  • If you’ve recently requested a region transfer or account merge with Riot Support, give it some time and, if necessary, ask support directly whether spending data moved with you.

Issue 3: Access Problems (Locked or Age-Blocked Account)

In regions with stricter digital safety rules, like Brazil, Riot has started enforcing age verification. If your account is temporarily paused or restricted, you might not be able to log in to the support tools at all.

  • Complete any required age verification or identity checks that appear when you log in.
  • If the game itself works but the support site doesn’t, clear cookies or try a different browser and log in again.
  • As a last resort, you can open a more generic support ticket (outside the data request flow) asking why you can’t access personal data tools.

Using Your Spending Total in a Practical Way

Once you’ve gone through the trouble of surfacing this number, it’s worth doing something with it beyond just the initial “wow” or “yikes” reaction. League’s monetization is built around RP, skins, rotating shops, and event passes, and it’s very easy to lose track of how much real money those little top‑ups represent.

Here are the habits I picked up after seeing my own totals:

  • Set a monthly cap: Decide a comfortable number (for example, the price of one full‑price game per season) and stick to it. I literally wrote mine on a sticky note on my monitor for a while.
  • Use the total as a benchmark: If your lifetime spend feels higher than expected, use that as a reason to be a bit pickier with future skins or bundles.
  • Prioritize what you actually use: I realized most of my spend was on champions and skins I never lock in anymore. Now I only buy cosmetics for champs that are in my current top three roles.
  • Be careful with limited-time offers: Event passes, Mythic shop rotations, and reroll systems are designed to push “fear of missing out.” Knowing your lifetime total makes it easier to say no when something doesn’t truly excite you.

This isn’t about guilt; it’s about having clear information. Riot building the “Show Me the Money” button into a data-request flow is actually helpful if you use it to keep yourself accountable.

Quick Recap of the Exact Click Path

If you just want the barebones checklist to follow on your second or third account, here’s the short version of what we covered:

  • Log into the right Riot Account in your browser (check ID and region).
  • Go to Riot Support and click Submit a ticket.
  • Select League of Legends as your game.
  • Pick the issue category related to Account / Data / Riot ID.
  • Click Data Request, then choose Do formal personal data request.
  • Select the option I want to know how much money I've spent with Riot Games.
  • Click the red Show Me the Money button.
  • Note the total for that account and region; repeat as needed for other regions/games.

Once you’ve done it once or twice, the process is straightforward. The main thing is just remembering that the old “spending history” page is gone, and this data-request path is the reliable way to see your League of Legends spending in 2026.
