Any discountable book in the named countries.

This is the best! They don't check which account you sent the code to vs. which account redeemed it. So you don't need to create multiple Kobo accounts (unless you use multiple coupons).

I sent four referrals, but none of them have gotten an email from Kobo.

I'm finding some emails don't generate a referral code. I haven't received anything from several disposable addresses that expire in a few minutes. Getairmail.com seems to work but you won't get the return with it.

I've got two codes on six attempts. I've used them, but haven't got the referral codes, either.

So you definitely have to use a different account if you get more than one 90% off coupon? So many good books I need, though, so it might be worth doing it. Also, if anyone wants me to send them a coupon, they can PM me their email address and I'll be happy to refer them.

I've gotten a 90% referral code at a Yahoo address, and a 40% "welcome" code at a Mac.com address. I'm waiting to see if I also get the 90% on the latter address.

A 90% code I'm not using: FRIENDC2Q

For some reason none of my Yahoo email accounts have received the coupon codes even though they were referred from the same accounts as the other email accounts.

I was able to successfully use one of my referral codes on the pre-existing Kobo account but I couldn't use any other referral codes on the account. I did find that I was able to use them on my other Kobo accounts even though they didn't receive referral emails. So it looks like they are transferrable but only one 90% off discount per account. Haven't received any codes for the referring accounts yet even though the "friend" has redeemed their code, so I'm not sure how long that takes.

The ones I am not receiving are yahoo emails as well. Has anyone else received a code at a yahoo email?

Edit: I just noticed dandelioncottage got one at a yahoo address.

Yahoo and Gmail work for me but not Hotmail.

It's odd because I've tried three different Yahoo addresses four different times each with my other email addresses. The other emails showed up, nothing for any of the Yahoo accounts (and I've checked the Spam folder too). But some here haven't had a problem.

I just referred my gmail address and that didn't work either. It must be me.
