Redeem Access with Barnes & Noble

After you purchase courseware or Cengage Unlimited from Barnes & Noble college bookstores, you will receive an email on how to get your Cengage access code (SAM: key code). Register it on the Cengage site to unlock your access.

Enroll in your course before registering your access code (SAM: key code).
  1. Check your Digital Learning email for a 14-character code beginning with P.
    This code is your Cengage access code (SAM: key code).
    Check your spam folder if the email is not in your inbox.
  2. If your receipt does not contain a Cengage access code (SAM: key code), get the code from your Yuzu account:
    1. Sign in at yuzu.com.
    2. Under your purchase, click Reveal Access Code > Open Book > Click Here to Reveal > Continue > Reveal Access Code and copy your Cengage access code (SAM: key code).
  3. Open your Cengage dashboard at login.cengage.com.
  4. Click Enter Access Code or Course Key and follow the instructions to enter your access code (SAM: key code).
