If you have a physical copy of either book and your passcode is unreadable or damaged, please email a photo of the damaged passcode to [email protected], adding the Subject line “Damaged Passcode”. Once email is received and the details verified, support will be provided, and if necessary, a replacement code will be sent.

If the envelope with passcode is missing from the back of the book, you have received a used copy . Please contact the retailer you purchased from to either return the book or request a replacement passcode. If the retailer will not issue you a replacement passcode, you may purchase an ebook through Amazon Kindle or VitalSource and a new code will be provided.

If this is a physical copy of the book, there should be an orange envelope located in the last two pages of the book. There will be a code in the envelope along with additional instructions to take your online test. If your book has a foiled box, then your code is underneath. Gently scratch off the foil using a coin, making sure not to peel it like a sticker. Please use this passcode to take your test and you will use this same passcode to access your results. You will need this passcode to take your retest in 6 months.

If you made your purchase from Amazon Kindle, Audible, Nook or VitalSource, they are responsible for issuing the code and will send the passcode in an additional email after your purchase.

Kindle’s subject line for the email with the passcode is “Your Amazon.com Promotional Code”

Audible’s subject line for the email with the passcode is “Supporting Documents for Emotional Intelligence 2.0.”

Please search your SPAM or JUNK folder as these emails can end up in those inboxes.

For all other e-books not mentioned above, they do not distribute the unique passcode upon purchase. Please contact the supplier directly.

You may access the test with your 10-character passcode by going to www.talentsmarteq.com/test

If you purchased the Kindle Version

After your Kindle order has been processed, Amazon will send you a follow up email with your unique passcode included. There is no orange envelope as described by Kindle, you will receive an email instead.

The subject of the email from Kindle will be “Your Amazon.com Promotional Code” and would have been sent to the email address you registered with your Kindle account. Please do a search in your Inbox and Spam folders or search in your “All Mail” filter to see if you can locate the email. If you cannot find the email, please contact Amazon Kindle Support at 1-866-216-1072 as they will be able to resend your passcode. Since your purchase was made through Kindle, they are responsible for issuing your passcode.

When you purchase Emotional Intelligence 2.0 from our website or one of our verified vendors, you will gain access to 2 tests: the original test that we recommend taking before reading through our book and a retest to track your improvement over time.

Your retest will automatically become available 6 months after taking your original test.

If you are attempting to take your second test before the 6-month recommended time period, please submit a support ticket that includes your 10-character passcode as well as the email address that you used to register for the first test. We can then release the retest for you.

You can submit the support ticket by clicking this link: https://www.talentsmarteq.com/contact/

Once your retest is released, you will receive an email from TalentSmartEQ with the direct link and instructions on how to access your retest.

Log into your portal using the same passcode located in the last two pages of your book. Click on “View Report” on the right side of the portal. When the report is available the icon will turn blue. If the icon is grayed out after 30 minutes of taking the test, please contact our support at 858-509-0582.

If you have any trouble logging in, please try using a different browser to view your test results. We also recommend clearing out your internet browser history or using the incognito/private browsing option.

Please make sure you go to www.TalentSmartEQ.com/test, click on “TAKE THE TEST” and enter your 10-character passcode starting with the letters EQ. If you are still having problems accessing your account, contact our support team at 858-509-0582.

Please note, if you are an international customer, your passcode may start with a different set of letters but will also be 10-characters long. In this case, go to www.TalentSmartEQ.com/test, click on your country and enter your 10-character code on the following page.

TalentSmartEQ recommends trying to return your used copy and repurchasing a “Brand New” version of the book since each passcode is unique to the book it comes with.

You can also obtain a passcode by purchasing a digital version of the book from our online verified vendors, which are Amazon Kindle or Audible. After your purchase is made, Amazon will supply you with a passcode in a separate email.

Assessments are non-refundable and cannot be exchanged. Unused assessments expire two years from the date of purchase.

Physical products may be considered for a refund by contacting us within 48 hours of the purchase date if they are unopened and in resale condition. A restocking fee of 10% will apply per product and shipping fees are not refundable.
