Most brands on RadioPins are completely free. A small set of high-demand brands — Ford M/V-series, VW / Audi / Seat / Skoda, Renault short-code and Continental VP1/VP2 — are offered as a verified instant unlock for $4.99. Here is exactly how that works and how you're protected.
What you’re paying for
Our paid codes are not guesses. Ford M/V, Renault short-code and Continental codes are checked against the published manufacturer algorithms, and VW/Audi codes against a verified database — so the code you receive is the correct factory unlock code for the serial you entered. Free brands are provided as-is from our database.
Delivery
Delivery is instant and digital. As soon as your payment is confirmed, the code appears on screen and (if you provided an email) is sent to your inbox. There is nothing to ship and no waiting.
Refund eligibility
- Code doesn’t work: full refund within 30 days of purchase.
- Wrong serial entered: we’ll help you find the correct code, or refund — just contact us.
- Duplicate/accidental purchase: full refund.
- Changed your mind after a working code was delivered: because the product is delivered instantly and is non-returnable digital information, a successfully delivered, working code is generally non-refundable — but we always review fairly.
Refunds are issued to your original payment method (card via Stripe, or PayPal) and typically appear within 5–10 business days.
How to request a refund or get help
Reply to your purchase receipt email, or contact [email protected] with your radio serial number and (if you have it) the order reference. We respond within 24 hours.
