Kobo Discounts: Coupon Codes + Discussion - Page 1169

On the website, buy it now always uses my store credit too. I also have PayPal as my default payment and no credit card stored on Kobo at all. That way I can make several smaller purchases without it flagging my credit card as potential fraud.

I tinkered with url to get my Kobo and found the Easter sale. Not ALL books in it were VIP bonus but I ended up buying five that were, at 5X points. Not sure if should commend you or contemn you

There is a message on my Kobo desktop that a change is coming and you will have to go to Kobo's website in order to make purchases.

I always make my purchases on their website through my pc, I trust that more than going through any app.

ownedbycats · 04-20-2025, 05:31 PM

I didn't even know desktop app even still existed.
