Perhaps, it only works with addresses that have not been used for purchases previously?

Two of the addresses I've tried have not been used. I tried one that was because I saw someone said it would work for addresses that had been used.

That's not it in my case because it worked for an email address that had quite a few purchases (just not the Yahoo addresses, both previously used and unused).

cadele · 03-25-2015, 10:44 PM

I tried from my gmail address to my Hotmail address (used for purchases before) but no responses at all

Susan A · 03-25-2015, 11:20 PM

Am I understanding this correctly --

I have 2 email accounts that I use to purchase KOBO books. No matter how many codes I amass, I will only be able to use one in each account.

(Which sounds a bit ungrateful...I am happy with 2, but I could use more!)

pdurrant and jswolf -- I referred you from both of my email accounts.

Susan A · 03-25-2015, 11:21 PM

If you are not getting your codes, have you checked your junk mail? That's where I found mine.

I referred myself on 2 different email addresses and I was able to use both codes on my own Kobo account.

You'd think between all 10 emails my family so graciously donated for the coupon purposes, there would be something more exciting. Nope. Unless you count the unusual amount of 10% off today.

25%
S4PFV7

30%

I have 10 different 90% referral codes

I used one successfully in my primary KOBO account. The other codes would not work in the same account. I wonder if they will work if I try again later.

Mura35 · 03-25-2015, 11:54 PM

I tried 90% didn't work for me. It figures

But then the books I usually read are not that all expensive, so - no biggie

Unfortunately this seems to be one situation when Kobo is georestricting according to IP - I just receive "Sorry, but this page isn’t available." when browsing to the refer a friend link.

Lynx-lynx · 03-26-2015, 02:19 AM

@willza, where are you?

Willza · 03-26-2015, 02:23 AM

I'm in South Africa. Possibly there is a "long" link that would work (e.g. https://store.kobobooks.com/en-us/...) if you are logged in to your "U.S." account, but the link given in the previous post doesn't work for me.

Lynx-lynx · 03-26-2015, 02:26 AM

Willza I've looked at my long link because I wanted to post it, but itks got my email address appended to the link.

I'm aware that members in HK can't access it either.

ferrywoman · 03-26-2015, 02:45 AM

My "long link" is

Code:

https://www.kobo.com/referafriend-b?style=onestore&utm_campaign=SaasquatchUS&utm_medium=Email&utm_source=Responsys_CRM_Acq&refererEmail=EMAIL

I just took out the query string (everything after the question mark) and posted the clean URL. Tried to find the generic long link but this doesn't seem to have one. And yes, I had to use a VPN to access it.
