Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Be sure you are entering the code exactly as it is printed. Some helpful tips if your Reward Code is hard to read:

    • The code does not include '0' or '1'
    • The code does not include 'B', so this character might be an '8' or 'E'
    • The code does not include 'I',‘N’ or ‘O’
    • The code does not include 'S', so this character might be a '5'
    • The code does not include 'U'
    • The code does not include 'Z', so this character might be a '2'
  2. Once your Reward Code has been activated, the website will not allow you to enter it again. You should have received an automatic confirmation email with a Promo Code and redemption instructions for your Promo Code when you activated the Reward Code. Please note, the confirmation email may be directed to your junk mail or spam folders, so you should check these folders as well.

  3. Once the Reward Code expires, it can no longer be activated on the website. Unfortunately, we are not authorized to exchange, replace, renew, or refund any Reward Codes once these have expired.

    If you lost or can't find your confirmation email, please check your SPAM folder. You can also sign in to your Fandango VIP account to see your purchase history.

This information is also available on your confirmation email.

Unfortunately, we are not authorized to exchange, replace, renew, or refund any expired Fandango Promotional Codes once the promotion has ended or the specific movie is no longer in theaters.
