# Redeeming a promo code

Your first site is free, so you won’t see a checkout until you add a second one. A promo code you redeem is saved on your account and waits until then, so you don’t have to remember it.

## Two ways to redeem a code

- **A sign-up link with a code,** like `app.wpforeman.com/signup?code=WPDEALHUNT` from a partner or newsletter. The sign-up page shows the code, and it’s saved to your new account. It works for Continue with Google too.
- **Settings › Plan & billing › Promo code.** Type the code and click **Redeem**. Use this if you already have an account, or signed up without the link.

The code is checked straight away. If it doesn’t exist you’ll see “That code isn’t valid”, and if it has run out, “That code has expired”.

## What happens next

- While it waits, Plan & billing shows it, for example: **WPDEALHUNT: 50% off for 6 months. It will be applied when you add your second site.**
- When you start a plan, the discount is already on the checkout page. There’s nothing to type.
- Once you’ve paid, it shows as applied, with the date it ends. A discount for 6 months covers your first 6 paid months.

## Good to know

- **One code at a time.** Redeeming a different code replaces the one that’s waiting (you’ll be asked first).
- **If a saved code runs out before you start a plan,** it shows as expired and checkout still works. You can type another code on the checkout page.
- **Codes are for the per-site plan.** They can’t be added to a plan that’s already running, or to a Lifetime account. If you already pay and have a code, email us and we’ll apply it.
