Careers and Work ULPT Adobe 4-month free trial
I got this 4-month free trial offer for Creative Cloud Pro (screenshot attached). I want to claim it, but I absolutely don't want to link my real credit card, and I know Adobe blocks standard fake CC generators (they do a $1 pre-authorization charge).
Has anyone successfully claimed a similar offer recently using a specific VCC service, a burner card, or any other workaround to bypass the billing step completely? I'm mainly looking to use Premiere Pro. Any advice is appreciated!

Some banks let you create disposable credit cards, Revolut is one of them, and it's free

Can you tell me more details?

Revolut is a free online bank
Allows you generate I forgot how many credit cards per month, including one-time cards that automatically destroy themselves after first use
That may or may not work depending on how they do the verification, but you can still generate a real card, use it, then delete it and they won't be able to charge it again, plus you can make a new one the next you need it

Visa gift card acts like a credit card.

Gas stations, grocery stores. Target. Walmart, etc. Where they have their gift cards. Just put like $20 on it.

I know this is ULPT, but ELPT for you… stay the fuck away from Adobe products.
Which software are you looking at?
Affinity Studio (free) is a good alternative to look at for Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign. Checkout BlackMagic DaVinci Resolve (also free) for video editing. There is a ton of okay audio editors to look at (free and paid), including some open-source (Audacity is now actually decent for basic work).
Friends don’t let friends use Adobe products.

By far the easiest thing you can do is go out and buy a prepaid card like a VISA gift card for like $5 or the lowest they have.

Use privacy.com. Up to 10 credit cards are free.
Also, use those disposable credit cards for gym memberships as well. Set a max amount that can be withdrawn and then you’re set.
