describing something that can be exchanged for money or a prize. You often see this on coupons or tickets that you can use later.

## Examples

- The airline issued a redeemable ticket that allowed passengers to book a flight within the next six months.
- While the bonds are technically redeemable at par, the company's current financial instability makes it unlikely that investors will see their full value returned in the near term.
