HELP! I was issued a Promo Code by Guerriilla Comix for a comic tier I pldeged on Kickstarter
the code given was supposed to be so that I could redeem it for a download of Wolfhunt.
But when I try to get the book, it keeps asking me for a Credit Card, not a Promo Code.
Publisher says it should work, but it is not. Need HELP ASAP
Just for the record, here is where I asked about it last year.

Well I reached out to the publisher and they say that I should be able to use the code. however if you are already a YEARLY GLOBAL COMIX member, the point of the code is actually worthless, as I can read the book due to my sub anyway for my $90 a year. I told them that if this was how they were going to distribute their books digitally, then either disclose that there is no need to buy the book from Kickstarter, as your GC Sub will already offer it to "read" , or just not offer anything to purchase digitally and just point them to GC after the KS is successfully funded. *sigh* First World Problems
Yikes. Yeah, they need to be more transparent about exactly what you're getting.
The only positive that might come from owning a code is that you'd officially unlock the title forever instead of just having access while you're subscribed.
At least, that's how I understand how the subscriptions work against promo codes.
@terryj I'm looking at what can be done to rectify this to make sure you get your PDF - stay tuned.
@terryj I stayed up overnight building the feature needed to support this - we'll be reaching out over email to rectify and get things resolved.
