Buy an application
Buy an application using your billing account or by entering
a promo code
A promo code allows you to purchase one or more App Catalog apps for
free. You might receive a promo code for a specific app, or a general
code that allows you to purchase one or more apps up to a specific dollar
amount.
You need to have a billing account set up in App Catalog to purchase
apps with a promo code—however, your account is not charged when
you use the code. If you do not have a promo code for an app, the
purchase is billed to your billing account.
You can also purchase an app directly from a promo code link (see
