Can I redeem my code if my subscription is handled by Apple or Google?
No. Currently our coupon campaigns can only be added to subscriptions which are handled by CBC directly. This means only subscriptions which were purchased through the CBC Gem website and paid for by credit card.
If you have a subscription which is handled by Apple or Google and you would like to use a CBC Gem coupon code, you would first need to cancel your subscription through Apple or Google.
Once your Premium entitlement has been revoked at the end of your subscription period and you have reverted back to a free subscription, you can then redeem your code by signing up directly on the CBC Gem website using a credit card as your means of payment.
Once your code has been redeemed, you can enjoy your premium subscription across any of our supported platforms.

I already have a paid subscription/free trial. Can I use my code?
Yes. However the promotion will not be applied to your subscription until the end of your current subscription period.
For example. If you have a current active subscription (paid through credit card only) which is set to renew on June 1st, any applied coupon code will not take effect until that date.
I just cancelled my paid subscription. What happens if I apply a coupon code during this time?
Applying a coupon code to a subscription which is in a cancelled state will renew the subscription.
The coupon code will only be applied at the end of the current subscription period.
For example. If you have cancelled your current subscription (paid through credit card only) and it is set to end on August 31st, applying a coupon code will automatically renew this subscription. It will no longer end on August 31st and will continue until cancelled.
What credit cards does Gem accept as forms of payment?
We currently accept MasterCard and VISA credit cards on CBC GEM, as well as Debit MasterCard or VISA Debit cards.
