You don't have to register. Just click the LOG IN button on the main site and connect with your Facebook account. That's it! You are good to go.

Yes! We check only the US Appstore for reviews!

Yes, you can, however you can use Promo Dispenser only with an US Appstore account, but don't worry! Read the next answer.

Everybody can register an US store account.

- Start iTunes.
- Log out from your regular account (if you are logged in) by clicking the account name on the top right corner and then the log out button.
- Change the store in the bottom right corner of the page to US by clicking on the country flag.
- Click the free app to download on the main site as asked in the yellow text at the top of the page (otherwise the "NONE" option won't appear under "payment"!).
- In the login pop up window click the "create new account" button and follow the instructions.
- You have to register a new email address for this account!
- You will need a real US state, city and zip code (find one on the net).
- For payment option choose "NONE" (appears only, if you download a free app or redeem a promo code!).
- Finish the process.

We need it for finding you on the Appstore and for getting your unique Appstore User ID.

Got to the main page and read the yellow text on the top.

We need it for finding you on the Appstore and for getting your unique Appstore User ID.

We need it, so we can authenticate you and check, if you wrote a review to your downloaded apps. The Appstore User ID is always the same for your account, even if you change your Nickname.

It is NOT your appstore nickname and NOT your email address, which you registered on iTunes!
It is a chain of numbers given to you by Apple, which can consist 7-10 digits.

Probably we couldn't find your unique Appstore User ID. First you need to download the app we linked for you on the main page at the top in the yellow text, then review it and wait for your review becoming visible on iTunes (1-2 hours). Then provide the Appstore Nickname, which you used for the review, below that yellow text .

Other reasons can be:

- You reviewed the app on a different Appstore, than the US Appstore!
- You use PING (read next answer)
- Your Appstore Nickname must be exact the same, how it appears on iTunes. It is case sensitive ("Gamerboy" is not equal to "gamerboy")!
- Your Nickname shouldn't contain special characters (smileys, stars, asian letters etc.)!

If you use PING, please read the next question and answer.

Go to your Appstore account. Turn PING off. Add a Nickname to your iTunes account (if you didn't previously). After you finished the review checking on Promo Dispenser, you can turn PING back on.

Everybody has a Facebook account and it makes things simpler.

The site will post a message about the app on your Facebook wall, which you just downloaded for free using Promo Dispenser, so you can tell your friends about it without doing anything manually. Maybe some of them also want to try the app or even Promo Dispenser.

Because the apps are coming from independent developers, who are depending extremely on reviews and feedback. It is a small price to "pay" for the opportunity to get paid apps for free. If they get reviews, they will give you more apps for free.

We disabled mandatory reviews for now, but they will be back with the new system.

Apple changed its policy regarding promo codes again, therefor it is possible again to rate and write reviews to apps, which were downloaded by promo codes. Developers appreciate reviews on iTunes rather, because it is more important for them.

Apple changed its system again and promo codes can't be reviewed now. We will overhaul the site completely.

The site is HERE, but NO! you don't have to go there, unless you want to.

If you click the "Get App with Promo Code" button, iTunes/Appstore starts and your code will be redeemed automatically. If you click the "Done" button in iTunes, the app will be downloaded to your device/PC. Your code has been mailed to your registered E-mail account too. If you didn't get the E-mail, look into your spam folder. You can find your code on your account page next to the app title as well.

No. Read the previous Q&A.

iTunes has to be installed on the PC, if you want to get an app with a code. You must be logged in to the US Appstore to be able to redeem the code. Check available downloads in the top menu of iTunes -> Store. If you still have problems, contact us!

Because it is probably used by somebody else. Some developers are inpatient and release the same codes on other sites, forums too. If that happens, the code will give you the "already used" message. Contact us with your Facebook name!

You can also check your iTunes Account, which you can find in the "drop down menu" by clicking your account name in the top right corner of iTunes. Look for your purchase history and make sure, that the app is not there.

If you see the app in the list, your code worked, but iTunes made a mistake. Go to the app's page in iTunes and click the "BUY" button. Maybe it will ask you, if you are sure to buy this item. Click YES. Then it will tell you, that you already purchased this item and you can download it for free. If the app is downloaded, you will see it in your "Applications" menu and you can sync it with your phone.

Attention! It works only on iTunes, not on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod!

Some times iTunes gives away invalid codes or they expire before our system removes them from the pool (28 days after upload). Contact us with your Facebook name.

Every app, you still need to review on the US Appstore, has a red speech bubble. Every app you already reviewed on the US Appstore has a green bubble.
If you reviewed an app on the US Appstore, but the bubble is still red, click it. It will check your review on the US Appstore and verify your review. Then it will turn green.

PromoDispenser is a site, where developers of iPhone/iPad/iPod touch applications can promote their apps by giving away promo codes to our registered users.

Every developer receives 50 promo codes per application from Apple being able to promote their apps. They can give them to media representatives, like review sites, blogs etc. People, who own a promo code for an application, may download that app for free from iTunes Appstore to test and review it.

No! PromoDispenser is giving away free promo codes provided by Apple and uploaded by the developer of the app.

Absolutely not. You don't have to pay ever. Neither as a user nor as a developer. It's absolutely free.

There are no strings attached. You just have to play by the rules.
It is free, because the site wasn't made for earning money, it's rather a hobby project to do something for the community.

Promo Codes can be used international in every appstore by everybody.Promo Dispenser however requires an US Appstore account and it works only if you redeem your promo codes in the US Appstore.

As a user:

• You can take promo codes freely without any contest or lottery type of drawings
• You can download new iPhone / iPod touch apps for free every day

So we can authenticate you and we can help to get more visitors to your website.

You messed something up, which we couldn't fix or you didn't play by the rules.
We delete apps, which have only used codes in the pool (normally happens, if you post the same codes also on other sites, like TouchArcade, so don't do it!). We might also ban your account.

You missed something during the upload process.

The stars are scraped directly from iTunes (like everything else). The stars will show the exact rating (turn yellow), when there are at least 5 ratings on iTunes. Until then they remain white.

Simply: You didn't play by the rules.

Please click the available advertisement spaces to buy them. There are other advertisement spaces for rent as well. If you want to see all advertisement spaces, click this link.

You can use these banners and link them to our site:

Just click the login button on the main site and conenct with a private(!) Facebook account. Then go to your account page, click the "upgrade to developer" button and click the "add new app" link on the new page. Follow the instructions.

Go to your account page and click "Uploaded apps". In the upcoming list look for your app title, which you want to update and click the "add new code" link. Follow the instructions.

If you update your app with new promo codes, your app will be displayed in the rotation automatically.

That would be unfair against the new apps. Users can list apps by "free code" and "updated apps", so they will find your app anyway. Your app also gets displayed in the top 5 apps after you added new codes.
