I wrote the following for the Kobo iOS app, but it applies to any Kobo, or in fact any non Apple device / app:
Can I transfer a book I have purchased from the iBookstore and that I read in iBooks, to the Kobo iOS application?
If the books purchased from the iBookstore are DRM (Digital Rights Management) free (Go to iTunes, find the book and use the Get Info option on it, if it says Book or Purchased Book then it will be DRM free) then you should be able to side-load them onto a device / app that supports such files, for example the Kobo iOS application. If the book is not DRM free (again go to iTunes, use Get Info on the book, and if it says Protected Book then it contains Apple's DRM) then you will not be able to read it in anything other than iBooks. This is due to it using Apple's proprietary DRM format with no other application except iBooks can read.
