Using an existing account with a new box code?

I've been trying to add a code i bought in a box to my account, no joke for about 25 minutes. No matter where i look and what videos i watch it seems like there just simply isn't an "add code" button on the panel. I've tried going to f-secure.com/box which then redirects me to my account but doesn't give me the option to input it. 

 

Does anyone have a fix?

    If you log in to your SAFE Portal, then go to the Orders and Payments section, you should see a link at the bottom to Enter a Code.  That's the fix.  :)

    I have also been looking for an option tu use a retail purchased box code to extend licenses in my existing account, but I haven't found a way how to do that. Why is that not possible? it is extremely stupid if I have to create always a new account for a new code.

     

    There is no "Enter a Code" option in Orders and Payments section like adviced earlier in this thread

    If it's not on your accounts, I can only suggest you contact Support:  Support Ticket

    Hello,

     

    I can to think about potential workaround. not sure that it will be work, but if it not work - probably will be more visible about another steps.

     

    When you logged under your account.

     

    Do you able to try open next URL: " https://my.f-secure.com/portal/coupon/renew/YOUR_SECRET_NUMBER "

     

    Where "YOUR_SECRET_NUMBER" - potential ID. Not sure about "how to get this" (maybe can be visible under mail-letter or other things), but when you have ""Enter a Code" option" this "secret_number_id" will be same with next one place:

     

    --> Second tab "Account settings".

    --> If you have option about "To end your subscription....."

     

    --> There will be button (end of string). It will be URL with something like "words" and "secret-number".

    So.. if you have this option/button. You able to get "your_secret_number" with this steps.

     

    After this.. just open URL (when you logged under your account) like:

     

    ""https://my.f-secure.com/portal/coupon/renew/1669445""

     

    And if this possible to work... there should be "prompt" for coupon/box/extend feature.

    If not... most likely you get prompt-page about "something wrong".

    Not sure that this is can be workaround (and can be valid workaround) - because my accounts also have extend button.

     

    And maybe this mean.. that most helpful there will be ticket for F-Secure Support.
