How to find your Spore Serial Code
Spore bought on Origin
The key is displayed directly after purchase on the confirmation page in Origin. It's admittedly easy overlooked.
I tested the purchase myself and received the key in my confirmation email. So this should be fixed.
The developers have been made aware of the key not being displayed in MY GAMES > game details
Fixed: Key can be found in MY GAMES > game details
Spore copies bought on Origin can be traced by customer support and a game advisor should be able to assist in cases where players can't find their key.

Physical Spore copies
There is a big article on how to find the key in your registry on the official Spore board that may be helpful:

If the game was previously registered on Origin by a games advisor, the key can be found in MY GAMES > game details
I will update this thread as soon as I get more information.

I purchased a used hard copy of Spore yesterday for my son. Upon trying to install today I realized there is no Registration Key inside the case. Is there a way I can be issued a Registration Key for it? The game was purhcased along side a full hard copy of CREATURE CREATOR which does have it's manual with Registration Key. I could provide the CREATURE CREATOR Registration Key as a reference of association with this copy of "Spore" the full game if that helps? Greatly appreciate help with this, my 8 year old son has been dying for this game for quiet a while and his little heart is breaking. PLEASE HELP! Thanks!
As you mentioned Spore is a used copy, I don't think you will get provided with another key by EA. The code was used by the original owner of the game most likely and if they didn't use it they should provide you with the code.

Same! This is insane! I saw the code and typed it in 3 times but it was wrong all 3 times i tried it!😬
If you bought the game from Origin, there is nothing to use the code on. It is for reference purposes only.
When you install Spore from Origin and log into the game using the same email and password you use with Origin that is it.
