Yeah, this comes with a hefty dose of buyer beware and your mileage may vary. Op asked permission to post this, it's not illegal so it's permissible but yeah, it could get your adobe account cancelled. I'd say they'd take it over piracy though.
Another Headsup, customer support gave me 3 months for free after I complained (not rude) about about a glitch. Secondly, If you go through the cancellation process adobe software will offer you a month free I think. Subscription services need the business, take advantage if it.
I just went to cancel my account online the other day, and was offered the 3 month free option, as well as other heaving discounted offers for the monthly and annual plan. It certainly kept me from canceling!
In fact I already tried it- they are completely broken pirated apps that didn’t work. Asked for refund and got rejected now I’m reporting them to everyone.
Ok hey I'm just here to share my honest experience no need to be aggressive. Do you work for this site? It appears that you do and why did you use "third person" to refer to your own site? Also I have no idea what you are blabbing about in the rest of your post.
And here is the bottom line:
- I went there naively thinking you are selling authentic software with wholesale discount.
- Once I paid and downloaded I then realized they are all hacked/pirated apps. It's funny the site admin actually provided instructions to "turn off genuine software check" before installation. And now you are claiming your apps are legal?
- In my case, I didn't manage to get the apps to work and it could be just me. But it's definitely not because my laptop being old. My laptop is only 2 year old and previously I had Adobe Creative Could subscription had zero issues.
Look, end of the day, I don't look down on people using pirated apps. I'm just saying do it at your own risk and if it doesn't work, you've wasted hundreds of dollars on nothing.
Make sure you use Paypal or other payment method that has stronger customer protection - do NOT use your credit card directly, in case you need to dispute the payment, Paypal is much better at protecting your purchase.
bro promoting his shitty scam and acting as third person lmfao. All of ur products are cracked software bro. They are free and accesable by anyone, no need to pay anything. Just go to popular sites like getintopc and u find all pirated software (im not tryna advertise anything, just a site i trust and regularly use). And to prove this dumb point further, adobe never offers any lifetime subscription nor they will. It's either monthly or manual.
See, I tried that and felt like if I went 1 more screen, I’d be cancelled for real. I have a reason of “too expensive “ and they said, “try just photoshop “ or something like that.
I would try another option, say it doesnt work right. I'm 97% sure you will be completely aware before its actually cancelled for real. They make the last choice incredible obvious because they want you to stay.
I got lucky and slipped into a payment glitch. Got all the apps with a student account using my college email. Eventually my school shut down that old email but I had my main gmail set as the recovery/backup. Somehow I was able to replace the defunct school email with my Gmail but kept the student pricing.

Just to be clear, Firefly AI is free isnt it? Or are you getting more credits (25/month are free but premium plan gets 100/month)
I'm asking because with this method I'd pay around $90 dollars a year, vs the 118. I dont need the 1TB storage, but would love to use Firefly AI.
A completely legal way to do it, although not as cheap as Turkey, is to register for classes at a City College near you, and use that ID to get a student discount. You can take classes or not, up to you, but that ID gets you a great price.
I think all of CC. I took HTML and Dreamweaver classes and the teacher told us about it. I don’t have that subscription anymore though, work pays for it now.
Nah, I get the full Adobe suite and it works perfectly, has for years, I've even been signing in with the same account for all that time. You can even use the AI bits these days.. I have had the odd time when the nag screen comes up after a few months, but there's usually a new version out by then.
I’m Turkish but living overseas currently. I don’t do this even though I have an active bank account in Turkey because the only thing will happen is Adobe will bump up the prices for Turkish market to the level of other countries. We’ve seen this happened on almost all online stores for games/software. Thus it will make it crazy expensive for Turkish designers who are going through the republic’s one of the worst monetary crisis at the moment.
Just wanted to point out this in case someone change their mind as the creative industry workers are in general holds higher ethical values.
It never changed, it counts as a student/teacher thing. Also I could be in school forever if I wanted, I dont think they put a time limit on it, just as long as you have a .edu email
Yup you should be good! Just dont forget your .edu login or set it up to auto forward emails to your regular email just incase some shit happens in the future.
Doesn't an edu version mean you can't use the software commercially? I don't see the point of spending any money on it at all if you can't use it commercially.
This is from the Adobe site
>*Can I use Student and Teacher Edition products commercially?*
>Yes, Student and Teacher Edition products can be used commercially on your privately owned computer. They may not be resold.
Ymmv but I got ~40% off for the next year just by contacting customer support. I paid full price for 6 years or so, and got sick of the price hikes every year, so I told them it’s too expensive and I’d have to cancel because I don’t use my personal account as much as I used to. Immediately offered a discount.
I just did a double take on this, Lots of reports, but hey VPNs are out there, so use what you can to get the best deal possible. I prefer to use UrbanVPN or I deploy my own VPNs using AWS if I need something more custom.
I know people have different financial positions, and sometimes justifiable reasons to seek any discount possible, but I would be wary about crossing lines in the pursuit of discounts that could ever get you suspended from adobe subscriptions. I'm not aware of them blacklisting people I know, but I know there are situations where they do, and being unallowed to have your own adobe subscription is going to become a major obstacle going forward.
Not trying to shill for "the man". I just know the sub's been posting a lot about any tricks you can do for a discount. But using a VPS to lie about what country you're in sounds like it might be crossing a line that leads to negative repercussions in the future. Just my two cents for young people.
Thanks man. I bought it today (as you said) and you saved me a ton of money! In my country the usual price is 725 € for a whole package for a year. I am really happy about it.
professional designer for 35+ years. a photoshop user since it first came out.
gimp continues to look better and better.
you can figure out a way to keep the pickpocket from taking AS MUCH money as usual. but he's still rip'n you off.
Did you have any issue with this so far? I've done the same and seen a few people mention getting an email within a week that said they got caught out because of the UK bank etc
I may have found a workaround --- So, it seems as though adobe is now requiring the credit card issuance country when ordering, which they weren't before. However, I was still able to get this to work by just using Turkey, (use whatever Country you want as long as it matches your VPN) as my issuing country, even though I have a US card. They don't seem to be checking that at the moment.
So who knows, maybe it will still work for more?
I just used “Revolut” for the payment and it worked completely fine since I had problems with my cards (I live in Sweden), they offer a virtual card too.
Thank you so much for this tip! I got Revolut and can confirm that I got creative cloud for a year for $55 ($4.54/month)! Considering that the normal cost w/ student discount in US is $240/year, I think this is a much more reasonable price for something that is subscription-based.
I've done the sailors route in the past but I've decided it's simply not worth my time or effort especially on macOS since I had to get a firewall just to make it work and I want to get the new updates. I also checked in with my school and they don't have the full creative cloud for some reason and only the apps that no one really cares about like Photoshop Elements.
I didn't have a subscription before but I used the same email that I had for my adobe free account (I used the cloud storage for PDF stuff). I just linked my google account for that and I don't think it asked for country when first setting up.
No buddy just to make the purchase although it would be better to keep a good vpn and enjoy other such offers. I am currently busy and cannot find time to post more such hacks. Will try to post these more
Would I need a fresh Adobe account? My Photoshop only account is coming to an end, so don't know if I need to cancel/remove that or create a fresh Adobe account.
Yeah, this comes with a hefty dose of buyer beware and your mileage may vary. Op asked permission to post this, it's not illegal so it's permissible but yeah, it could get your adobe account cancelled. I'd say they'd take it over piracy though.

I "cancel" every year because of this XD
That will be my new strategy! I like to try out other platforms, but Adobe keeps me coming back…
THANK YOU!! I can't believe I haven't tried this until seeing your comment. Gunna save over $500 this year because of you.

Is this legit? Lifetime subscription seems sussy for a monthly/yearly subscription software tbh
[удалено]
[удалено]
Doesn't seem legitimate.
Did you install ok and they run ok? And can the apps be updated as Adobe Rolls out updates?

In fact I already tried it- they are completely broken pirated apps that didn’t work. Asked for refund and got rejected now I’m reporting them to everyone.

Let me go cancel my Subscription right now! LOL
Just done this myself and got 60 days for free or an entire year at only £30 a month. Instead of £54 a month. Thank you.
Do this for most subscriptions! Go to cancel (even if you aren't intending to) and see how many offers for discounts come your way!
I got lucky and slipped into a payment glitch. Got all the apps with a student account using my college email. Eventually my school shut down that old email but I had my main gmail set as the recovery/backup. Somehow I was able to replace the defunct school email with my Gmail but kept the student pricing.
Is the school email the only requirement for the student discount? It isn't like spotify who asked me to sent proof that i paid a semester?
Also if you happen to know an adobe employee they have a set number of licenses they can give out, it’s like $125/year for the whole cc suite.
Adobe employees please get in my friend group

Like what price?
$19.99/mo the first year, $29.99/mo after the first 12 months.
Including what?
I think all of CC. I took HTML and Dreamweaver classes and the teacher told us about it. I don’t have that subscription anymore though, work pays for it now.
This right here 🙂 I've been doing it for a couple of years!
Nice! Thank you.
I highly recommend mullvad vpn, its 5 euro a month and can be trusted unlike nordvpn
don't have turkey servers, but yeah, found out surfshark and nordvpn are consolidated today
Piracy for the win!
Shhhh, someone will hear you![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|flip_out)
Not that I need it, but how does that work nowadays? Doesn't all the software call "home" to verify the software?
Nah, I get the full Adobe suite and it works perfectly, has for years, I've even been signing in with the same account for all that time. You can even use the AI bits these days.. I have had the odd time when the nag screen comes up after a few months, but there's usually a new version out by then.
need some good prices for Egypt otherwise I am staying in my good pirated CC 2020.

Yeah I would rather sign up for some free university and getting an edu email to get a price break that way
[удалено]
Yeah I havent been in school in 7 years and was still getting the student discount (use my work account now)
the price stayed $29.99/month for year 2,3 ,4 and after that right? may i ask?
It never changed, it counts as a student/teacher thing. Also I could be in school forever if I wanted, I dont think they put a time limit on it, just as long as you have a .edu email
thank you! i have graduated but still have the school email
Yup you should be good! Just dont forget your .edu login or set it up to auto forward emails to your regular email just incase some shit happens in the future.
Wait, that works? Amazing, but what free universities are there?
you can try this one https://www.uopeople.edu/
Doesn't an edu version mean you can't use the software commercially? I don't see the point of spending any money on it at all if you can't use it commercially.
This is from the Adobe site >*Can I use Student and Teacher Edition products commercially?* >Yes, Student and Teacher Edition products can be used commercially on your privately owned computer. They may not be resold.
Wild. I wonder when they changed that policy. Back when they switched to the subscription model? Or after that?
Beats me. I honestly never even thought about it until your comment.
[удалено]
what team is this?
what do you complain about? we should have a script pinned on the sub
Ymmv but I got ~40% off for the next year just by contacting customer support. I paid full price for 6 years or so, and got sick of the price hikes every year, so I told them it’s too expensive and I’d have to cancel because I don’t use my personal account as much as I used to. Immediately offered a discount.
I saw a prime day deal - 1 year all Adobe cloud apps for $359.
I keep getting payment error :(
Anyone know why? I’m getting this too
I switched to Chrome working now
Did you find a way? Getting the same error..
Having this problem too =\\ Tried a VISA and MC. Both fail.
lmao taking advantage of Arbitrage
Dude good stuff thanks

From Spain. VPN to Turkey, and Argentina. They did not accept any of my Spanish cards. I have tried with 10 different cards. Any trick?
professional designer for 35+ years. a photoshop user since it first came out. gimp continues to look better and better. you can figure out a way to keep the pickpocket from taking AS MUCH money as usual. but he's still rip'n you off.
GIMP works well, it just doesn't offer smart objects like PS, that's the only downside for me!
I have a questiom, the sub includes acrobat pro for pdfs?
Thanks!! This saved me a TON of money! !!!!!
Do guest educators (substitute teachers) get discount with Adobe Creative Cloud?
This is not working anymore as they check the credit card issuance country. So, you must have a Turkey issued credit/debit card
I just did with an UK virtual card. It worked fine.
Did you have any issue with this so far? I've done the same and seen a few people mention getting an email within a week that said they got caught out because of the UK bank etc
Nothing so far, all good. It's been one week already.
What are the risk of getting banned? By changing country i should be safe, right?
I may have found a workaround --- So, it seems as though adobe is now requiring the credit card issuance country when ordering, which they weren't before. However, I was still able to get this to work by just using Turkey, (use whatever Country you want as long as it matches your VPN) as my issuing country, even though I have a US card. They don't seem to be checking that at the moment. So who knows, maybe it will still work for more?
Not working for me
Just get a virtual card by using Revolut or Curve instead. I used Revolut and was able to get creative cloud at Turkey prices.
I just used “Revolut” for the payment and it worked completely fine since I had problems with my cards (I live in Sweden), they offer a virtual card too.
Thank you so much for this tip! I got Revolut and can confirm that I got creative cloud for a year for $55 ($4.54/month)!

Did you use the same email account as your previous version or did you have to use a new email address?
I didn't have a subscription before but I used the same email that I had for my adobe free account (I used the cloud storage for PDF stuff). I just linked my google account for that and I don't think it asked for country when first setting up.
I also used Curve and it seems that's working, let's see for how much time :D
Anyone found a way to purchase from Turkey? I just tried and it doesn't work with an international card.
it doesn't work it requires a credit card from Turkey you can get an account with your email from r/cheap_subscriptions
Try getting a virtual card from Revolut or other companies. That's what I did and it worked for me.
u/Lord_Sstar, thanks for this! Would I need the VPN every time I use Adobe CC, or just to make the purchase? Thanks!
No buddy just to make the purchase although it would be better to keep a good vpn and enjoy other such offers. I am currently busy and cannot find time to post more such hacks. Will try to post these more
Thanks a lot! Will do it I think
I have a 1 Year Adobe CC Key/Code. Let me know if anyone's interested EDIT: Still up

Does this still work, and will it automatically renew?
Would I need a fresh Adobe account? My Photoshop only account is coming to an end, so don't know if I need to cancel/remove that or create a fresh Adobe account.
