Perplexity regularly runs promotional offers and the discount codes for these offers are distributed through our partners, authorized and official channels, and on our website.
Discount codes can only be redeemed on the web, not through the Perplexity mobile apps. To apply a code:
Visit perplexity.ai and either create a new account or sign in to your existing one.
Open the link provided in your email. You will be redirected to Perplexity, and a pop-up will confirm the validity of your discount code. Click “Get Started.”
At checkout, your discount code should be automatically applied. If it isn’t, manually enter the code from the pop-up into the "Add Promotion Code" field on the payment page. Click "Subscribe" to complete your sign-up.
Note: If you have an active subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play, you'll need to wait for it to end to apply a discount code.
Providing payment details guarantees a seamless switch to a paid subscription after your trial or discount period ends. Rest assured, you won’t be charged at sign-up. Billing will only start once the free period concludes.
You can manage your subscription anytime via your account settings page [https://www.perplexity.ai/account/details](https://www.perplexity.ai/account/details) under “Manage Subscription.”
If you've redeemed a trial or promotional subscription (for example, through a partner promotion), a valid payment method is required to activate and maintain your access. Here's what you need to know:
A valid credit or debit card is required for all promotional and trial redemptions.
No charges are applied during your promotional/trial period.
Unless you cancel before the trial ends, your subscription will auto-renew at the standard rate for the plan you selected during redemption (monthly or annual).
New users are prompted to add a payment method during the sign-up and redemption flow.
Existing promotional/trial users who receive a payment method prompt must add a credit or debit card within 7 days of the original notification. If no card is added within that window, your account will be downgraded to Perplexity's free version. Once you add a valid card, your promotional access resumes immediately. However, any missed days will not be added back to your trial period.
Email: You will receive an email notification prompting you to add a payment method.
In-app: An in-app banner will appear prompting you to add your payment information.
Web (desktop):
Scroll to the Subscription section.
Click Manage Plan (or Manage Subscription).
Under Billing and Shipping Information, add or update your payment method.
Note: Do not attempt to update your Perplexity payment information through the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Doing so will create a new, separate subscription and you will be charged. Always update your payment method via the Perplexity website.
The steps below apply to any carrier or partner promotion, including offers from telecom providers such as Airtel, Bouygues Telecom, and Vivo. For Airtel-specific redemption steps, see Perplexity Pro Airtel Promo.
If your carrier or partner app shows the benefit as active but Perplexity does not show Pro, work through these checks:
Sign in with the activation email. Your promotional Pro access is tied to the Perplexity account you used when you activated the offer. If you sign in with a different email, Google, or Apple account, that account will show the Free plan. Search your inbox for a "Welcome to Pro" email to identify the correct account.
Check your payment status. Promotional subscriptions require a valid payment method. If your subscription is in a past-due state (for example, because no card was added or a card check failed), Pro can appear inactive. The partner app can still show the promotion as active during this time. Go to perplexity.ai/settings/account, open the Subscription section, and add or update your payment method. Then sign out of Perplexity and sign back in on both the app and the website to refresh your subscription status.
Treat your Perplexity account status as the source of truth. Carrier and partner apps are not always synced with Perplexity. If the partner app shows the benefit as active but your Perplexity subscription is inactive, resolve the issue on the Perplexity side using the steps above, or contact Perplexity support with your redemption confirmation.
No. A partner promotion is permanently linked to the Perplexity account you used to activate it and cannot be transferred to another account or email address. Partner discount codes are single-use, so a redeemed code cannot be applied again on a different account. If you want to use Perplexity with a different email address, you can create a new account and subscribe separately. The promotional benefit stays on the original account until it expires.
No, discount codes are for individual use only. Sharing them violates our Terms of Service.
No, only one discount code can be applied per billing cycle. To add a discount to an existing subscription, go to settings, select "Manage Subscription" in the Pro section, and choose "Update Plan." Apply your promo code at checkout.
No, expired promo codes cannot be reactivated.
We do not offer special discounts based on any unique conditions related to geographical location, currency, or demographic status.
