Question
How to activate me account?
I’m 17 years old student from Russia. I have got a 100$ GitHub education coupon for DigitalOcean, but I can’t activate my account because I can’t to get a credit card and create a PayPal account. Are there any ways to activate my account (with debit card or something else)?

As per the normal rule, you need to add a card or send some money (USD 5) from Paypal to get the account activated, but I am not sure about their special rules (if they have any) for Students !!
