How to Find Iracing Promotions
Answering how to find iracing promotions for iRacing drivers: where to look in the site and app, why promotions show up, and quick steps to verify or fix it fast.
If you’re asking how to find iracing promotions, the short answer is: check your License page on the iRacing member site or the in-sim Account/License area, and watch your email/notifications for confirmation. This guide shows exactly where to look and the quick actions to fix confusion.
Quick Answer — how to find iracing promotions
Open the iRacing member site (or the sim) and go to your Account → License or My Racing → Licenses. Promotions (license upgrades) and their status are listed there; you’ll also get an email and a site notification when iRacing processes a promotion.
What’s Really Going On
There are two things people mean by “promotions”:
- License promotions: moving up a license class (D → C → B etc.). Those are automatic and shown on your License/Account page and in race results or standings.
- Marketing promotions: discounts, coupons, or special offers. Those appear in the iRacing store, emails, or partner pages.
Most confusion comes from not knowing where the site shows the change, or expecting an instant pop-up. iRacing records promotions in your account and sends a confirmation email — so if you don’t see it in your account, it’s not applied yet.
Step-by-Step Fix
- Sign in at members.iracing.com (or open the sim) and click Account → Licenses or My Racing → Licenses. Confirm your current license and SR (Safety Rating).
- Check the top-right notification bell on the member site — iRacing posts promotion messages there.
- Open your email (the one tied to your iRacing account) and search for “iRacing” + “promotion” or “license” to find confirmation. Check spam/junk.
- Look at your recent race Results and Series pages — promoted drivers often get a “Promoted” badge in standings or result details.
- If your account shows the old license but you got an email saying you were promoted, log out and back in, clear browser cache, or restart the sim; data sometimes needs a refresh.
- Still wrong? Submit a support ticket with a screenshot of your License page and the race result that should have triggered the promotion.
Extra Tips / Checklist
- Use the same email/account you race on — multiple accounts cause confusion.
- Notifications can lag slightly; wait a few hours before opening a ticket.
- For marketing promos, check the iRacing store front page, newsletter, and official Twitter/Discord.
- Keep screenshots of race results and standings when you think a promotion should have happened.
- Don’t rely on third-party sites for your official license status — the member site is authoritative.
FAQs
Q: How long until a license promotion appears in my account?
A: Usually within a few hours, but occasionally you may need to refresh the site or wait up to a day. Check email and notifications first.
Q: I reached the required SR but don’t see a promotion — why?
A: Promotions require meeting iRacing’s criteria over valid sessions. If you’re sure, refresh, check race validity, then contact support with evidence.
Q: Where do I find discount promotions or coupons?
A: Check the iRacing store, official emails/newsletters, and iRacing social channels or partner pages for discount offers.
Q: Can I request a manual promotion?
A: No — promotions are automatic. If something looks wrong, file a support ticket with screenshots.
Wrap-Up
Finding iRacing promotions is usually a matter of checking the License page and your email/notifications. If the site and email disagree, refresh, gather screenshots, and contact iRacing support. Next session: verify your race results and keep that evidence handy if a promotion seems missing.
