Google, like other companies, usually have some promotional offers when a new product is launched, or during some special seasons (e.g., holiday seasons).
For example, Chromecast owners enjoyed various Chromecast offers in the past varying from free movie rental to Play store gift card, to a few months of free Netflix in a few regions.
Even better, for Chromecast and Chromecast Audio owners, some new offers are also available for old devices. This is different from other companies.
Google Home is not an exception, I guess.
You may not be aware that there may be some Google Home promotional offers waiting for you.
Like other promotions, there are always terms and conditions associated with such offers. You need to redeem the Google Home offers in the specified period.
And, most importantly, most Google Home offers may be region-specific.
So, it is important to know how to check and redeem Google Home promotional offers.
Please note, Google Home promotional offers are tied to individual device. But some offers may allow you to redeem only once (e.g., Netflix, Google Play music or YouTube Red) even if you have multiple eligible devices.
In addition, some vendors may run their own promotions for Google Home occasionally. Such offers have to be redeemed from the vendor. They are not discussed here.
As mentioned, Google Home promotional offers are always tied to individual devices, so you have to use Google Home app to check the available promotional offers.
Actually, you should check Google Home promotional offers every a few months because Google tends to make new offers available for old devices as well.
You can follow these steps to check and redeem Google Home promotional offers.
First, you need to make sure Google Home is powered on and work properly.
You can check LED light color in the top touch panel to know the status of Google Home.
If there are no Google Home devices detected in the same WiFi network, no promotional offers will be shown.
On any of your mobile devices, start Google Home app.
The screenshots shown below were taken from Android devices. But the process works similarly on iOS devices.

Once there are any available Google Home offers listed, you can then redeem (claim) them.
For example, as shown above and below, you can tap the menu key (3 vertical dots) to redeem this offer.
In this guide, YouTube Red can be redeemed.
Tap Try it free as shown below to get 6-month free of YouTube Red.
You will be then asked to check your Google account associated with this offer.
Please note, different Google Home promotional offers may be redeemed slightly differently depending on the offer.
