Depends on whether you're getting an "invalid code" or "code used" message and a CD or digital purchase.
"invalid" means the code format is wrong. Should be 5 sets of 4 alphanumeric codes seperated by spaces, try without spacing. Can also happen if you're trying to redeem a box set game code on a digital code entry system (Origin site)
"used" means the code is already registered to an Origin account (digital download)
