How to activate AeroPoints

Before you can use your new AeroPoints, you need to activate them — visit the AeroPoints activation page, enter your activation code or serial number, and assign them to your portal.


When you receive your new AeroPoints, you must activate them before you begin using them. 

💡 Tip: If you received AeroPoints as a warranty replacement, they should already be activated and added to your group. If they're not showing up, contact Propeller support.
💡 Tip: Although optional, the best practice is to use AeroPoint 2s with the Propeller mobile app. Download the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

The links below will take you to your mobile provider’s app store to download and install the Propeller mobile app.
