I tend to shop ahead of time and check so I have a wishlist ready to go when the coupons are out. There is one current list that I know of that is 30 percent off (but the books in this list probably also work with the 90 percent and other trivia coupons).

https://www.kobo.com/get30 Use code GET30 at checkout. If you have a higher code, you can try that with this list.

Here are some 35% codes I won't be using:

N4JLK8
LXS7Q4
SBDAWQ
3FE883
P5TW3Z
62ZLYU
A4R2LY
H6T2QQ

I forgot to add that these are US codes.

Just did some window shopping in NZ and noticed that they have Robert Galbraith's The Cuckoo's Calling for NZ$0.99. Couldn't check if it was couponable though since I already bought my copy a while back.

That sucks, guess i found out about this referral thing too late. Did manage to get a 90% off code from a kind member on this forum. Tried multi-tab but after using it on the first book it said their was a problem with my payment. Later i checked my Kobo library and bank account and saw the second book did go through and the money taken from my account. So multi-tab does work, you just need to ignore the "error" warning.

I haven't received any new refer-a-friend codes since yesterday. The original email says the program ends April 13th so it may be a technical issue.

Does anyone know what publishers Kobo doesn't discount in NZ?

[Susan A]

I was able to use all 45 90% I had, but it would maxed out at 9 per account, so I had to make some new account. Worth it for the savings.

I have a bunch of referral codes i haven't received yet. I got 1/2 of yesterday's codes.

i was not able to refer-a-friend from a desktop computer all yesterday...then i tried it on a tablet and it worked. as with anything KOBO......YMMV

[rjcchan]

these codes were tested to work in either the US or the UK:

45% PPR3YZ 47T934 CR55PW

I would like one, please and thank you. Were people able to use them outside of the list?

There only seemed to be 3 characters that varied in the friend codes. Maybe they've used up all the possible valid combinations already?
