Kobo takes the discount off the price of the book, then charges tax on the balance. Just confirmed with my recepits. I hope that's the +5% you've been seeing....

I wonder how that affects the 20% tax we pay on eBooks in the UK ?

Is this added direct to book price separate to VAT ?

A book I bought a couple of months ago, the vat was only 2p for a book which I paid 56p for (big discount code)

as far as i can see on discount codes, in the uk it is applied to the price shown, vat is then re calculated to the discounted price, similar idea to showing a price, discounting it then adding sales tax to it

Make sure you cut/paste carefully - almost all their codes are case sensitive and don't like any spaces before/after in the box.

Thanks for the hint.

Unfortunately it can't be that. It's always the first thing I check if something doesn't work. Did I copy it correctly? Is there a space in front or after? Things like that...

Could be that the code is only valid in the US - or that it doesn't work in Europe, where I am, because prices over here are in Euro (of course) and it's not a discount of X percent, but a (changed) price of $2.99.

Anyway it still doesn't work for me.

This is the difference between a sales tax and value added tax. VAT is always included into the sales price and not added afterwards (sales tax).
I always get the "full" discount, here 50%. I live in Europe.

Assumption: VAT: 5%
$ 10 * (100/105) * 50% * (105/100) = $ 5
$ 9.52 (w/o VAT) * 50% discount = $ 4.76 * 1.05 (add VAT) = $ 5

Yes, I was referring to sales tax. Not sure why else mXb would not get the "full" discount.
Yes, sales tax is added to actual purchase price, therefore explaining why a 50% code only seems to net a 45% discount.
