How to Add Invisible Text in a PUBG Username
PUBG Mobile is famous for its hyper-competitive lobbies and aggressive leaderboards. If you want to stand out among 100 players dropping into Erangel, you need a name that commands attention.
For some, that means a highly stylized clan tag. For others, it means stripping the name away entirely.
Whether you want a completely blank ID or just want to add a massive, floating space between two words (like PRO KILLER), you have probably discovered that the standard spacebar does not work. PUBG strictly forbids standard spaces in usernames.
But with the right invisible text, you can bypass their filter completely.
Decoding PUBG’s Name Filter
Here is an unpopular opinion: PUBG’s username filters are actually incredibly lazy; they only check for standard spaces, completely ignoring complex Unicode.
When the developers built the naming database for PUBG Mobile, they knew that allowing standard spaces (U+0020) could break web URLs and make reporting players difficult. So, they explicitly banned U+0020.
But they didn’t ban the other 140,000 characters in the Unicode dictionary.
The License Plate Analogy
Imagine you are driving a getaway car. The police are looking for a car with the license plate “John 123”. To hide your identity, you want to rip the license plate off entirely (a blank name). The toll booth (PUBG’s server) won’t let you through without a plate.
So, you paint your license plate with a hyper-reflective paint that completely blinds the toll booth cameras. The physical metal plate is still there—satisfying the toll booth rules—but the camera just sees a blinding white void.
An invisible character is that reflective paint. It satisfies the server’s requirement for data, but displays a completely empty void on the screen.
How to Get a Blank Name in PUBG Mobile
To successfully trick the PUBG Mobile database, you must use a specific, heavy character block. The Zero Width Space will not work here. The system requires a character that has actual width and substance.
You must use the Hangul Filler (U+3164).
- Acquire an ID Card: You need a Rename Card, which you can usually get from crew points, Prime subscriptions, or events.
- Copy the Right Data: Go to an invisible character generator. Locate the Hangul Filler and click “Copy.”
- Edit Your Name: Open your inventory in PUBG Mobile, tap the Rename Card, and hit “Use.”
- Paste the Void: Paste the copied character into the box. If it says “Name Already Taken,” paste it two or three times to create a unique invisible string.
- Hit OK: Confirm the change.
Your name in the lobby, the kill feed, and the airplane drop will now be completely empty.
Using Invisible Spaces for Styling
If a completely blank name feels too extreme, you can use these characters to stylize your name.
Let’s say you want your name to be NINJA ASSASSIN. If you try to use the spacebar, PUBG throws an “Invalid Character” error.
Instead, type NINJA, paste an Invisible Symbol, and type ASSASSIN. Because the symbol you pasted is technically classified as a complex linguistic character (not a standard space), PUBG approves the name.
Pro Tip: PUBG Mobile periodically updates their anti-cheat and database filters. If the Hangul Filler stops working, do not panic. Simply switch to a different Unicode spacing block, like the Braille Pattern Blank (
U+2800), to bypass the new filter.
