Gather your original purchase receipt, the physical prepaid card, or access the email inbox associated with your software purchase to locate the required codes.
Locate and Redeem Your Purchase Code
Find the redemption code or serial number from your confirmation records based on where you purchased the subscription plan.
The correct registration process depends heavily on whether the plan was purchased directly from Adobe or redeemed through a third-party retailer or reseller.
Search your email inbox for a purchase confirmation or redemption email from Adobe or the reseller. The 24-digit redemption code is typically included in the email body.
If you purchased a physical card from a retail store, check the back of the card. You may need to gently scratch off the silver foil to reveal the redemption code.
Sign in to the Adobe account associated with your purchase through the official redemption portal and enter the code exactly as it appears.
If the code is missing, unreadable, or returns an 'invalid' error, contact the original retailer or Adobe Support directly, ensuring you have your valid proof of purchase ready.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a redemption code and a serial number?
A redemption code is typically a 24-digit alphanumeric code used to verify your prepaid purchase and activate your subscription online. A serial number is generally used to license offline software installations directly.
Where can I find the redemption code if I bought Acrobat Pro DC online?
If purchased through an online retailer like Amazon or Best Buy, the redemption code is usually sent to your email address or stored within the 'Digital Library' or 'Software Library' section of your customer account on the retailer's website.
What should I do if my prepaid card's code is scratched or unreadable?
If the redemption code is damaged, you need to contact the retail store where the card was purchased. Alternatively, reach out to customer support with clear photographs of the front and back of the card, along with the store receipt.
