Sprint is having the first officially recorded giveaway that uses the new promo codes feature! The giveaway is US and Android only and it marks the first recorded occurrence of promo code usage by Niantic and their partners.

Sprint is giving away Great Balls, Lucky Eggs and Incense items and it is required to visit a Sprint store in order to get your promo code.

These promo codes will be given away at local Sprint stores and will be valid for one time usage, only to Sprint customers.

Update #1 (17:14 UTC): it seems that Sprint doesn’t have the codes just yet. A redditor went into a Sprint store, showed them this article and their official response was: “call or come back later, we should have them in a few hours”! – source

As we’ve previously reported, Apple doesn’t allow usage of promotional codes through iOS apps. No alternative has been given for Trainers using iPhones.
