Yes, I just got a gift card there recently and it killed my CC. I always use one that I can get started again quickly, but won't be a major pain if it frozen (such as the one that pays my regular bills). I haven't tried the ones that block all out of country sales, recently.

Hmm, I wonder if gift card sales are still billed through Canada for some reason. The books I bought last night (& others recently) are billed through Kobo US out of Delaware.

A few contests ago I did some purchases via Paypal rather than change my card on file and got hit with a bunch of the foreign transactions fee from one of my banks. This doesn't happen when I use the card directly at the site. So maybe something in Paypal is still showing Kobo as Canadian based.

I wish they would get their digital gift certificates going again.

Yep PayPal charges foreign transactions fee if you use their credit card form to pay with. I stop doing that and use the other one when it works. If I pay PayPal to PayPal though no fee.

I'm in the US and have made a couple of purchases at the Kobo UK site via PayPal and have not seen any foreign transaction fees from either PayPal or my bank. I'm using a direct transfer from my checking account via PayPal, so that might be why. Kobo shows my total as £2.99 and PayPal shows the total to be taken out of my account in dollars (just under $5), so PayPal appears to be doing the conversion.

It depends on your credit card, no paypal. I've bought in USA, China, Canada, UK, Netherlands, Syngapore... with a Spanish credit card and no fee... with a card, I have fees or worse conversion types with others.

All very inconsistent regarding foreign transaction fees. It sounds like the best thing to do is experiment with various payment methods to determine which avenue is the least expensive and disruptive.

I noticed that Kobo now accepts Amex and Discover for US residents.

I know it was my bank adding the charges. What I thought odd is that it does not add the fee if I use the card directly on Kobo's site, but it does add the fee if I use the card via Paypal.

Perhaps they are charging by service, I don't know, banks are strange entities.
