Dear Customer,
Thanks for purchasing the Bitdefender license.
Please follow the below 3 steps to activate your code. This process will take around 5-10 minutes.
Step 1: Download “VPN by Private Internet Access” and “Bitdefender Mobile Security” from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
Note that both apps must be downloaded to activate Bitdefender Mobile successfully.
WARNING: You MUST activate code with PIA VPN (“Private Internet Access”) on, or else you will encounter a region-code error.
Step 2: Turn on PIA VPN on your phone.
Open up PIA VPN on your mobile phone and follow the instructions below.
Set up your initial settings and search for “India” region. Click on the power button to connect.
Step 3: Activate product code on Bitdefender Mobile Security.
Go back to Homepage. Open Bitdefender Mobile Security on your phone and proceed with code activation.
Agree to the subscription agreement and create a new account.
Enter the activation code provided. With PIA VPN turned-on, activation code should be successful.
If you do not see the activation code prompt, go to “My Account” and add the activation code there.
After successful activation, you no longer need PIA VPN. Disconnect and remove the PIA VPN app. Run your antivirus as per usual. 🙂
