Expected $200 promotional credit but only received $5 after signing up"

Posted on July 22, 2026

Hello,

Important information! I recently created a new DigitalOcean account expecting to receive the $200 promotional credit for new users. However, after completing my registration, I only received $5 in promotional credits.

Could you please check whether my account is eligible for the $200 promotional credit? If so, I would appreciate it if you could help apply the correct promotional credits or explain why I only received $5.

Thank you for your assistance.
