Your access code is proof of purchase for your courseware or eBook. If you purchased from a bookstore or other retailer, you must apply your access code to your account to access course materials after the grace period.

You do not need an access code if you purchased from cengage.com , subscribed to Cengage Unlimited, or your school purchased Cengage access for you.

If you have a multi-term access code from a print book or online purchase, you do not need to re-enter the code or provide payment after the first term. You will have access to your course materials until the end of your multi-term course.
