A voucher code on addy.io is a code you can purchase and redeem later to upgrade or extend your account’s subscription. You can buy vouchers on the addy.io subscription page (payment by card via Stripe) or from official resellers. This article explains how voucher codes work, how to purchase and redeem them, and how redemption affects your subscription. You cannot redeem a voucher if you are on a recurring card subscription; see the redemption section below.
How do they work?
A voucher code is a one-time code that (like a gift card), when redeemed, adds or upgrades subscription time on your account. You can buy one or more vouchers (e.g. for yourself or to give away) and redeem them when you are ready. Payment for vouchers purchased on addy.io is by card and handled by Stripe.
A voucher code is different from a coupon code. Coupon codes provide a discount on a purchase and do not redeem a subscription like voucher codes do. If you have a coupon code you can enter it when redirected to Stripe to complete payment, or if paying with crypto by clicking "Have a coupon code? Click here" above the "Proceed To Cryptocurrency Payment" button.
To purchase a voucher code, go to the subscription page, scroll to the Voucher codes section, select the quantity and plan (e.g. Lite or Pro), and complete payment.
An upgrade example
If you had a cryptocurrency subscription on the Lite plan with 6 months left and you redeemed a voucher code for the Pro plan, your account would be upgraded to Pro immediately. Your unused time on Lite (6 months) will be converted and added to your new subscription end date (e.g. 6 months ÷ 3 ≈ 2 months of Pro time added), so your Pro subscription would end in about 14 months.
Redeeming a voucher code
If you already have a voucher code:
- Go to the subscription page and scroll to the Voucher codes section.
- Paste the code into the text input and click Redeem voucher.
- Your subscription will be upgraded or extended as described. You cannot redeem a voucher code if you are currently on a recurring card subscription; the option may be disabled in that case.
Official resellers
You can also purchase voucher codes from ProxyStore, an official reseller. There you can pay with Monero, Bitcoin, cash and SEPA bank transfer.
