# How do I redeem an institutional access code?

If your university or organisation holds a Geeky Medics institutional licence, we issue an **access code** that unlocks your access. This article explains how those codes work.

|| Access codes are issued to your institution by Geeky Medics. If you haven’t been given one, ask whoever coordinates the licence where you study or work - we can’t issue codes to individual students directly.

## Redeeming your code

1. Log in to [app.geekymedics.com](https://app.geekymedics.com/login/), or [register a free account](https://app.geekymedics.com/register/) if you don’t have one
2. Go to [https://app.geekymedics.com/purchase/institutional-access/](https://app.geekymedics.com/purchase/institutional-access/)
3. Enter your code and click **Redeem code**

Codes aren’t case-sensitive. If your institution shared a direct link instead, clicking it redeems the code for you.

There’s a full walkthrough in [how do I redeem a free access code?](/en/article/how-do-i-redeem-a-free-access-code-16ixkhh/)

## What will my code unlock?

That depends on the licence your institution has taken out. A code can grant any combination of our products - OSCE stations, question banks, flashcard collections, OSCE guides and more - and may include [AI credits](/en/article/what-are-ai-credits-124hbwj/) too.

If you’re not sure what your licence covers, your institution will be able to tell you.

## How long will I have access?

Most institutional codes grant access for **a year from the day you redeem it**, but this varies by agreement. Redeem your code as soon as you receive it so you don’t lose any of your access period.

Each code has a limited number of places and, in some cases, a redemption window with a start and end date.
