I'm glad to come here and see I'm not the only one who didn't like that greeting! Yes, I am female (and if someone at Kobo was looking at my info, my first name is obviously feminine) but it's been years since I would have described myself as a "girl". I guess they must not have my birth date on record

"Hey girl" might be OK as a casual greeting between friends, but it wasn't a good choice for a business email.

Through July 20th, at Kobo Canada only, there's an offer of an extra 1000 points if you buy a Kobo electronic Gift Card with a value of $45 CAD or over. If you buy a lot of books there, enough that you'd like to boost your points to cash in for free book redemption, then this could be useful to top up.

One per account, details on the dedicated promo page, which says the bonus points should be awarded around 24 hours after purchase.

Do the gift cards from Canada still require you to enter a PIN? Or was that only the gift cards purchased at Chapters?

I used to be able to buy gift cards from Chapters in Canada, but ever since Kobo redid their website there is no where on the US site to enter the PIN so the cards are not usable.

As far as I know the cards are NOT usable anywhere but Canada. I'm an affiliate for them and I asked my affiliate manager about gift cards because I wanted to do a giveaway on the blog. This was a while back but I was told they do not support gift cards anywhere BUT Canada. I wouldn't buy a card unless you are in Canada and can use them there.

Several years ago, I would "go traveling" to countries where gift cards are sold, and buy them and send them to myself, but I don't know if that still works. I think they're missing out by not selling gift cards, but maybe they got burned by gift card thieves in the past.

The Kobo cards have also been redone, and no longer require a pin. There is a scratch off area where you find a code. You enter the code in at check out.

I have used my balance in Canada, USA, UK, Australia, etc with no issues.
