How to create a BitDefender Account

Why do I need a BitDefender Account?
Creating a BitDefender Account takes less than a minute and gives you the following benefits:

• Access to Customer Care
• Hourly antivirus signature updates
• The posibility of retrieving your license key at any time, in case you change your PC or reinstall the product
• Special offers for other BitDefender products

In order to benefit from the advantages listed above, you must create an account within 15 days (for trial products) or within 30 days (for paid products) as of the product installation date.

You will have two options:

1. I do not have a BitDefender account;
2. I already have a BitDefender account;
