The download starts right away. No account, no e-mail address, no app.
The code does not work
Four things go wrong most often, in this order.
-
A character read wrong
Codes avoid characters that look alike, so there is no O and no I in them: what looks like an O is a zero, what looks like an l is a one. Upper and lower case do not matter, dashes do not either.
-
The code is still under the coating
Some cards hide the code under a scratch-off field. Rub it off carefully with a coin.
-
The code has already been used
Each code works once. If you bought the record second hand, the first owner may have used it. The seller can issue a new one.
-
The code belongs somewhere else
Not every download card is a redeemoid card. If the card names another website, the code only works there.

Questions about download codes
- Where do I find my download code?
- On the card in the sleeve, on a sticker on the cover or on a slip in the wrap. Some cards hide the code under a scratch-off field: rub it off with a coin.
- My code does not work. Why?
- Check for typos first: the code is not case sensitive, and the dashes are optional. If it still fails, the code may already have been used.
- Why does it not say whether the code exists?
- On purpose. A message that told the difference would let someone guess codes that belong to other people.
- I downloaded the file but it broke. Do I get another try?
- Yes. After you redeem, the download works for another 72 hours, up to 5 times in total.
- The code is old. Does it expire?
- Codes do not expire by themselves. The person who sold you the record decides how long their files stay online.
- Nobody can help me?
- Write to office@redeemoid.com. A person answers, usually the one who built this.
