Promo codes can be used to upgrade from our free plan to a paid subscription or to switch to another plan or billing period.
Please thoroughly read the conditions for the promotion campaign you would like to participate in: some are only intended for new users, while others apply to billing period changes:
Promo codes are valid only for the specified period and cannot be applied after the expiration date. They are also one-time use and do not carry over to renewal payments. Codes cannot be saved for future purchases. You will need to complete your purchase immediately after entering your promo code. Only one promo code can be applied at a time.
Certain promo codes can be automatically applied by clicking a link (e.g., one offered via email or in banners displayed within your profile).
Other codes must be applied by typing or pasting them into the corresponding Promocode field immediately before finalizing your purchase.
If you want to upgrade to a higher plan
- Open your account settings and scroll down to the Current plan section.
- Click 'Change plan' next to your Current plan.
- Select a plan you would like to upgrade to and click Upgrade.
- Select the billing interval—monthly or yearly.
- Enter your promo code using the ‘Add promocode’ button and click Apply. From there, your plan price should be displayed with your discount applied.
- Enter your credit card and billing details (country, name, and billing address) and click Upgrade.
If you want to switch to another billing period
- Open your account settings and scroll down to the Current plan section.
- Click Edit next to your Current plan.
- Select a billing period that’s different from your current one.
- Enter your promo code and click Apply. From there, your plan price should be displayed with your discount applied.
-
Click Save changes.
It’s not possible to apply a promo code to payments that have already been made. But you can still take advantage of a promotion by upgrading to a higher plan or changing your billing period.
FAQs
How can I confirm that the discount has been applied to my account?
You can verify the discount by checking your account’s upcoming renewal details in the account settings. If active, future renewals will reflect the discounted price.
Why doesn’t the discounted price appear in the ‘Edit current plan’ section for an approved discount?
The discount is applied at the account level and reflected on the next invoice, not necessarily in the ‘Edit current plan’ section, as this shows the price for the current billing period instead.
Should I sign up for a plan first or request the discount first?
You have to request the discount first so it can be applied to your purchase.
Can I apply a promo code to a payment that’s already been processed?
Promo codes cannot be applied retroactively. You can still use the promo code when switching to a different plan or billing period.
I didn’t receive my code, or I got an error message when applying the code.
If the promo code was sent by email, check your Spam and Promotions folders in case it ended up there. If you still can't find it, or if you get an error when applying the promo code, please reach out to Readymag support for assistance.
Does Readymag notify me when my promo code is about to expire?
No, Readymag does not send notifications when a promo code is about to expire. We recommend keeping track of the expiration date yourself and applying the code before it runs out. If you're unsure of the expiration date, please contact Readymag support so we can confirm it for you.
