Enable Pearson Codeless
Your institution may offer students the option to opt in to add the cost of MyLab or Mastering course materials to their tuition or fees. This is available from your bookstore through Access Pearson Codeless as part of your Inclusive Access or institutional-bill program. Bookstores include Barnes & Noble, Follett-Willo, RedShelf, or VitalSource. When students opt out, they can buy access through Pearson using a credit card or, if available, PayPal or Apple Pay.
Your LMS administrator usually works with the bookstore to integrate Access Pearson Codeless with your LMS course. To enable Access Pearson Codeless, select the bookstore link and access your MyLab or Mastering course. For instructions, select your bookstore below. The name and location of the bookstore link depends on the course setup. The link is sometimes named Course Materials and may include your bookstore name.
Student access to MyLab and Mastering via Barnes & Noble, Follett-Willo, RedShelf, or VitalSource: Select the bookstore link to ensure Access Pearson Codeless is enabled. Make the link visible to students to allow them to manage the opt status by following your institution's process. This prevents issues with student access.

- Bookstore only: If you're using a bookstore but not Access Pearson, you need to link accounts and finish setting up your integration after you enable Access Pearson Codeless.
