Applying feature codes

You can apply feature codes to take advantage of IBM Cloud® resources or capabilities. Feature codes are typically provided for online courses and certain events, such as educational sessions or conference workshops.

You must have the Editor role or higher for all account management services to apply a feature code.

If you don't have an account yet, you can add your feature code when you register for a new account by clicking Register with a code instead of entering your credit card information. If you do have an account, complete the following steps to apply a feature code to your existing account:

1. In the IBM Cloud console, go to Manage > Account, and select Account settings.
2. Click Apply code.
3. Enter the feature code, which is typically a random alphanumeric value such as a1b2c3def456.
4. Click Apply.
