Figured I'd get a jump on this in anticipation of the next step in the pre-order festivities. So far I've been unable to register on the shop app. We'll see what happens tomorrow.

I was just going to create a new thread about this so thank you. I pre-ordered from Verizon and I can't figure out where to get/find the $200 credit. The shop Samsung app does not work... 🙁 🤷*♂️ 😢
 
Went through the Shop app and tapped "see if I'm eligible" and it said I wasn't. Couldn't figure out why, as it's technically the 5th here on the East Coast. I guess I'll just try again tomorrow. Glad I'm not the only one and that Samsung is aware of the problem.
 
I'm pending review. Says I'll get an email in 24-48 hours. Had to upload a pic of my t-mobile receipt.
 
I'm pending approval as well. I just took a screen shot of my receipt from my tmo account. We'll see in a couple days if it works.
 
Yeah it's hit or miss on instant approval. I'm pretty sure Samsung doesn't even have set parameters on instant approval. It's basically a coin toss. I usually lose that coin toss, but get approved within a few days. For the note 10 I think it took 3 or 4 days before I finally got approved.
 
Registration was approved! That was quick.

Edit: Says I'll be credited in 4-6 weeks.

I got approved as well. It doesn't usually take that long for them to send the code.
 
Finally got approved. Tried earlier today and again got rejected. Tried just right now with thes "see if I'm eligible" button and it successfully went through. Got the four to six weeks notice as well.
 
Mine was submitted this morning, and by close of business day, I received the notification from the Shop Samsung app that it was approved.

My question is, if I wanted to purchase something more expensive, could I use the $200 credit and still finance the rest? The examples for doing payments all say 0% interest, so I figure why not. I could cough up the dough, but psychologically, I feel better thinking of paying smaller amounts and holding onto my money as long as possible, especially since there's no interest involved.

I don't see why the credit wouldn't work just like trading a phone in for a new phone.
 
I am looking in the shop Samsung app and just don't see the option to register for the rewards. Can anyone help where I am to look?

Go into the menu at the top left and click on inbox. It will start off as an s20 pre-order and should change to "see if you qualify". Click on that, enter your info and you might have to upload your receipt.
 
I got the 4-6 weeks to get my credit message as well. Will the credit automatically go to the Shop Samsung app, or is something mailed?
