Where do i use the code i was sent on the 27th?

[Gonzothegreat198]

I was emailed this on launch day and im a lil confused.
I bought the game online from SE and my Collectors Edition is already registered to my service account.

So my question is, what do i actually do with the code?
Do i add a new service account or what? I tried entering it as a bonus code but that wouldn't fly.
