This even works if I want to use Kobo Plus since Kobo will happily use the store credit from gift cards to pay for Kobo Plus. Admittedly, syncing the Kobo Plus books to my Kobo is a bit of a risk since it's IP address will be needed for the sync process but there a router level VPN would help.

That's presuming you have a way to get Kobo gift cards. They're not sold in my country and I have no way of obtaining one. So it's either PayPal or a credit card.
