Worked for me as a new customer.

1. Create Account

2. Click Billing

3. Bottom of the page Code : BLACK50

4. Paypal 5$ ( http://i.imgur.com/gHAaEZW.png )

5. Create Droplet - 5$/month

6. 11 months of VPS for 5$

Did not work for me. My Billing history only has PayPal in it. I created a support ticket.

I'm sure they're busy today with all the new sign-ups, I'm curious how long it will take.

^ Resolved. Credit was manually added by support staff.

I look forward to trying out Digital Ocean.

I followed this and got credited.

In order to start a server you have to add payment details though. So step 5 is not optional.

Winner! \0/
