Redeem a code or claim an offer

A code someone gave you, or a campaign your email address qualifies for, becomes free time on Premium or Max: the paid features open, no card is asked for, and nothing is billed to you while it lasts.

Both live on the Redemption Center tab of Settings. Click your name at the bottom of the sidebar, choose Account Settings, then Redemption Center in the left rail. The code box sits at the top of that tab, with any offers for your account below it.

Enter a code

1. Type your code into the "Enter your code" box under Redemption Code.
2. Press Apply.

"Coupon activated successfully" means it worked. "Failed to activate coupon" is usually a typo, so check the code character by character and try once more. If it still refuses, contact us and quote the code.

Activate an offer

Each offer card names the campaign, shows a Premium or Max pill, says how long the free run lasts, and shows how many places have gone. Press Activate and a toast confirms it.

When an offer matches your account, an amber banner also appears at the top of New Application reading "Claim your {duration} free {tier}". Claim there does the same job as the card, and claiming once is enough.

A card reading Not available gives its reason underneath, and the reason tells you whether anything can change it:

• "Only available for selected email domains." depends on the address on your account, which you can edit on the Account tab unless you signed in with Google.
• "Not available with your current plan." wants you on a different plan.
• "You have already activated this offer." is final.

Check the Subscription tab

Your plan pill updates and the locked features open. On Subscription, your current plan now carries a Granted pill and a date its access runs to, and Billing History stays at "No invoices yet." because a granted plan is never billed to you.

Watch that date. When it passes your account returns to Starter (free) unless you subscribe, and an offer running out halfway through an application is a nasty surprise. Since the cards show how many places are left, take one you qualify for rather than saving it for a quieter week. To carry on afterwards, see Upgrade, change or cancel your plan.
