DigitalOcean allows one promo code per account, but you can combine the $200 foundation credit with another promotional code.
Example combinations:
- $200 foundation + $200 promo code = $400 total
- $200 foundation + $100 promo code = $300 total
- $200 foundation + $15 promo code = $215 total
Apply the $200 foundation credit through the signup link first, then add your chosen promo code in the billing section.
If your promo code fails to apply:
- Check that you're using a new account (most codes are for new users only).
- Verify you haven't already applied a different promo code.
- Confirm the code spelling matches exactly, including capitalization.
- Contact DigitalOcean support to manually apply eligible codes.
- Some codes expire or get deactivated without notice.
