I was going to buy a $10 card and see if it redeems for $30 today but G2A is rejecting my payments. Paypal is authorizing them but G2A is rejecting. I checked, I'm not being charged on Paypal.
Not sure what the disconnect is but I guess I'm done with trying to purchase the gift cards. |

Feel like I should mention that G2A is very dark grey-market— entirely third-market sellers, many selling stolen game keys. No reason to suspect gift cards are exempt. Don't spend any money not ready to lose.

It was only good through the 23rd.
You could buy a $50 gift card from Kobo and use the free $10 card to buy VIP. Coupon codes also work on VIP membership |

Just chiming in to say the G2A offer worked for me in germany using euro as well.
The currency exchanges make the offer a bit worse though, and the GBP cards were out of stock. Still got a good 30% off, which is more than the normal "10€ for 50€" that Kobo normally uses. No complaints here :P In total, I paid 70€ for just over 100€ worth of credit. |

Try this one - KOBOVIP - valid until 23rd November. It might still work. With Kobo you never know. The subject of the email was "Treat yourself to a VIP Membership for just £3!".

The shop in Canada says:
Your gift for them is our gift to you Give an eGift of $50 or more and get $10 back LIMIT 1 PER CUSTOMER. OFFER ENDS JANUARY 5TH. I'm embarrassed to admit that I've used the buy $70 get $10 this year (just once). Last edited by winsomnia; 12-08-2025 at 01:26 AM. |

After finding that there seems to be no way to view a history of one's store credit balance on Kobo, I went through all my email receipts for this year.
It looks like they are not always accurate in their updates to the balance. I reckon I'm around £50 down on where I should be. (OTOH, with discounted gift cards, etc, I'm still a lot up on paying cash.) I shall be keeping a closer eye on the balance, and making sure that when they say they've refunded me, it's actually appeared in my balance. |
