Tracfone Promo Codes – What are they? – How to find and how to use Tracfone bonus codes
When you buy minutes for your Tracfone, you will put code numbers on your phone and then more minutes and activation time will appear on your phone. If when you add a minute card to your phone you also use a promo code, you will get more minutes. The minute card will have a 15 digit number. The promo code will always be a 5 digit number.
How to use Tracfone promo codes
- You can add airtime through a landline. This used to be my preferred way to add promo codes, but now accessing Tracfone’s customer service phone system just takes too long.
- Add airtime directly from the phone. From Digital Tracfones you can add minutes from the Prepaid Menu. Click Menu, then Prepaid, scroll to add airtime and click, on some phones it will add the 5-digit promo code right after your card’s 15-digit PIN number and on some phones you will be prompted after you’ve entered The PIN. if you have a promo code. You will only have one chance to use a promo code from your phone. If the code doesn’t work, Tracfone will process your minute card anyway and give you the minutes on the card. To try to get your bonus codes if they don’t go through this method, you will need to call Tracfone Customer Service and try to get your bonus minutes.
- Add Tracfone drives from your computer (My favorite) I like to add airtime from my computer because if you try a promo code that doesn’t work, you can try two more times. If on the third try you don’t get a code to make it work, Tracfone will just add the minute card without the bonus minutes. If you try two different promo codes and they don’t work, close your browser and delete temporary cookies and you will have three more chances to try the bonus codes. Go to Tracfone.com and click the “add / buy airtime” button at the top of the page and the website will guide you through.
Preparing to add units
First, I will write my Tracfone Serial Number (ESN) on the back of a business card with the Tracfone customer service number (1-800-867-7183). I will also enter my phone number so I can easily find the numbers in large enough print to read without looking at my Tracfone menu.
How to find Tracfone promo codes.
I first registered my phone’s serial number and joined the “Tracfone Insider” program. This plan provides you with a monthly email update from Tracfone. This email often has a promo code for you.
