I just purchased a new subscription for Freedome VPN off the website and I have an activation code. When I open the app and click subscription, there is no option to add the activation number.

    Hi @Autumnal

    Thank you for your comment.

    We have launched a new system for FREEDOME VPN for the user to manage the subscription more effectively. Now, FREEDOME has its account just like F-Secure SAFE, ID PROTECTION and TOTAL.

    By using this account-based subscription, you can check on which device you have installed the device, released the license and downloaded the application all from the My F-Secure. I recommend you use the license code in the account to convert from license code to usage time.

    Kindly visit this link to guide you https://community.f-secure.com/freedome-en/kb/articles/29263

    Kindly let me know if this helps.

    Thank you and stay safe.

    • Hello. I bought a new phone and I have this same problem. I tried to do what you adviced in the answer, but I do not have this option available: Redeem code

    When I try to login to my F-Secure account through the Android app, it says my order has got old and I have to make a new one. And it does not let me log in. Anyway that is not true, I have bought code for 3 devices at 22.8.2022 and only used 2 of them so far. So what can I do?
