Distribution and Redemption 

Please note the following 

• A Redemption Code can only be used once 

• A Redemption Code will be redeemed to the Apple ID used during redemption

Distribution 

As a Redemption Code is unique and could be used only once, you are recommended to assign a code for a specific user. Both the Code and the Code Redemption Link could be used by the user for redemption while clicking the link on the Apple devices could be more straightforward. 

Redemption 

Once the user received the Code Redemption Link, they could access the link on an Apple device. The user will be directed to the App Store and a redemption page will be shown (Picture 1). If the user was asked to enter the Apple ID and/or password, enter the relevant information. 

When the account authentication is successful, the custom app will begin to download (Picture 2).
