Multi tab didn't occur to me as I don't have any existing KOBO accounts that I haven't used a refer code in. Everytime I find 9 more books I want to buy, I make one new account and use 9 codes. But I think you are saying that I can make 9 new accounts and use my 9 codes 81 times? Boggles the mind. And, I don't think I have 81 books left I want to buy. I think I bought about 100 already.

Multi tabbing with 25 accounts? Yikes!! I am impressed. Bottom line is that if you want to do that again, I think you need 25 different accounts. (At least that's what my experience has been...and well...KOBO...who knows? Could be different for everyone!)
Multitab you can do with using only one account one code. You just open, e.g. 25 tabs in your browser, each with a book you want to purchase. Apply the code to every one of them, when you have applied the very same code on every tab, then start clicking the purchase button for every single tab. Usually I manage to multitab at most 5 to 6 books - but perhaps something to do with the network being slow I managed to put through 25.

Thanks for answering my Q - now I understand why I can't put through another code now that I have used the first code. I won't be so adventurous as to create so many account. One is already enough. I have two though - so that I may check book prices of two countries in addition to the one I'm in, using them to log on using different browsers...
