I asked around, the way it works on PS4 is the pre-order content is allotted to one account only, which I suppose defaults it to the main account.

It usually depends on the type of content the bonus is. For stuff like DLCs, those are shared amount all sub accounts, for other stuff like consumables (think FIFA packs, or coins from PvZ GW 1) those are only allotted to the account purchasing them. It looks like the deluxe content is typed as a consumable in this case.
First, thank you for asking around. Second, the answer you got makes no sense. The content should be assigned to the installation, allowing any account (main or sub) to claim it.
Im just passing what I was told but I will for sure go back and ask some other people to make sure this is how it works and see if theres anything we can do
Solved? How is this a solution?

Basically your game upgrade and special perk for pre-ordering is a not an upgrade but the equivalent of a in-app purchase for the main PSN account.
As it stands in the form of this solution - it's a ripoff.
This is not well thought out. This is a game mostly kids play from alternate accounts since the parents pay for it on their main accoount. My kid saved for the deluxe preorder edition for some time. Needless to say I have one very sad kid now after I came here and saw why his mailbox was empty. At least he has all his characters from the first game but this is a really strange and frustrating decision from the devs.
Why not just give it to the first account that claims it?
