Thank you for the 50% code! New Zealand is lovely this time of year. I had a lovely visit and bought 10 books.

(Too bad that Little Brown Group, owned by Hachette isn't couponable in NZ.)

I've got some 35% and 30% coupon code.
I'm also posting the 25%-10%, all hidden by the spoiler tag so as not to make a huge post.

Note that some of the 30% and 35% codes didn't work on the Canadian site, like others have reported. Maybe they will start working? Oh kobo. You keep us on our toes.

Disappointed. All the discount codes I got from the contest from 10% to 30% do not work.

It's bad that they don't work, but with a 50% unlimited use code available it doesn't suck quite as bad.

With the unlimited use 50% code, I'm not going to post my 30%-35% contest code. It's not worth it >,<

50% is better than 99+% of the contest codes. Less than 1% of the contest codes are 55%, 65% or 75%.

I didn't get anything better than 35% off this contest so not going to bother to post codes either with that 50% off unlimited one out there.

That 50% discount code makes up for the broken contest codes.

It looks like Kobo has closed the loophole in its price match policy.

I used the 50% discount code to reduce the cost of a book from £38 to £19 and then asked for a price match with Google Play where the book was £29. Kobo refused it and the email said:

"Unfortunately, a Price Match credit does not apply to your purchase due to the following reason(s).

- The book on the competitor's site was more expensive than it was on our website as a promo code was applied to your purchase."

I'm still happy because a) it was a book I really wanted (and is unlikely ever to be much cheaper) and b) I was able to use a £7 store credit gained by taking advantage of the price match before this apparent change.

So beware.

My experience is that my friend gets an email telling her she is invited to shop at KOBO. My friend then went to KOBO to buy a book. A notice shows up that a $5 credit is available on a book that costs at least $5. Credit good until Feb 29. Then she put a book that was more than $5 and is coupon eligible in her cart. She did not apply any coupons though. She can see the -$5 on the first screen of the payment process. However, when she gets to the final page of the payment screens, the -$5 is NOT there, she would have to pay full price, and she doesn't feel like fighting with customer service.

only 1 out of 8 friends were successful. The other 7 experienced the above.

Despite this, a few of my friends made a purchase anyway. The Get $10 program for referring a new friend who makes a purchase states allow 8 business days for the credit. It has been more than 8 days and no credit.

Tell your friends to turn off ad blockers on Kobo. Also to try browsers other than Chrome to check out with the credit.
