Kobo online discount codes in 2026

How do I apply Kobo discount codes to my online order?

What is Kobo’s Price Match Guarantee and the timeframe for requesting it?

Kobo’s Price Match Guarantee means if you buy an eBook or a single digital magazine, you can ask for a price match within seven days of purchase. If your request qualifies, Kobo will credit your account with the difference between Kobo’s price and the competitor’s advertised price, plus an extra 10% of the competitor’s price. They aim to check and respond to requests within three business days. Credits go to your Kobo account and can’t be redeemed for cash.

How does Kobo determine eligibility for a price match?

A product is eligible only if the competing offer is identical to what you bought on Kobo (for eBooks this means the same ISBN) and you submit a completed price-match request within seven days of purchase. The competing offer must not be cheaper because of an advertising error, misprint or a special combination promotion, and it must be sold by an authorised retailer in the specified territory. Kobo will verify the competing offer before granting credit. Limitations apply and Kobo may decline requests that don’t meet the published criteria.

What is the returns period for a Kobo eReader bought from kobo.com?

If you bought a Kobo eReader from kobo.com and aren’t happy with it, you can return it within 30 days of purchase. Contact Kobo Customer Service to arrange the return and get the right instructions or an RMA. You’re normally responsible for return postage unless stated otherwise. Once Kobo receives and processes the returned device, they’ll refund the cost to your original payment method, minus any initial delivery fees.

Can a digital purchase from Kobo be cancelled or refunded under the EU’s consumer rights?

If you live in the EU, you have a legal right to cancel a contract for digital content within 14 days starting the day after purchase. But if you access or download the digital content, that right to cancel is lost and you won’t be eligible for a refund. Kobo’s Terms of Sale set out these conditions, so check them before downloading. If a cancellation is made in line with the law and Kobo’s terms, access to the digital content will be removed after the refund is processed.

How can a customer request a refund for an eBook or audiobook bought from Kobo?

Refunds for eBooks and audiobooks are decided case by case. Use Kobo’s online chat or contact Customer Care to check if a specific item qualifies. Kobo recommends getting in touch with customer support to start the refund process and get guidance on eligibility. The Terms of Sale and related policies are used when assessing requests. If you bought via Google Play through the Kobo Android app, refunds must go through Google Play’s refund process.

What is Kobo’s policy for cancelling an order placed on kobo.com shortly after checkout?

You can cancel an order on kobo.com online for up to eight hours after placing it without contacting customer support. If it’s been more than eight hours, contact Kobo Customer Service to request cancellation and get help. If the order has already shipped or is being prepared for dispatch, you’ll need to follow the standard return process instead. You’ll get an email confirmation once any cancellation is processed.

What are the rules for cancelling or returning a Kobo eReader order after dispatch?

You may be able to cancel an eReader order online if it’s paid for, not already cancelled or refunded and hasn’t shipped; in some situations you can also request cancellation up to 40 days after the shipment date. To start a cancellation or return, go to Order Status, enter your order number and email address, and follow the prompts to submit a return request. Once a return is authorised, Kobo will send instructions and track the return status. Refunds are processed to the original payment method after Kobo receives and inspects the item, subject to any delivery fee deductions.

Does Kobo charge a standard home delivery fee and is this amount stated on the site?

Kobo’s help pages explain delivery options for hardware but don’t list a single universal “standard home delivery” charge that applies across all territories. Delivery fees and shipping methods are shown at checkout and can vary by delivery address, country and chosen speed. The exact cost for home delivery therefore appears at the point of purchase rather than as a fixed global figure. Top tip: check shipping charges during checkout for the precise cost to your UK address.

Is there a FREE delivery threshold shown on Kobo’s site for UK orders?

There’s no single site-wide FREE delivery minimum for UK orders published in the help or terms pages; shipping thresholds are shown at checkout and can differ by product and destination. Whether your order qualifies for FREE delivery is determined during checkout rather than via a single published minimum spend. Check the checkout summary to see if FREE shipping applies to your basket, or contact Customer Service if you’re unsure.

Does Kobo offer Click & Collect and where is the information about it located?

Some product pages and regional stores mention Click & Collect as an option for certain purchases, so you may be able to pick items up from selected partners where that option is offered. Availability depends on the country, the item and the retailer partners involved, and details are shown during purchase or on the product page. Review the checkout options or the product listing to see if Click & Collect is available for your order-specific collection locations and terms are provided at the time of purchase when supported.

Are delivery charges and shipping options shown before finalising a Kobo purchase?

Yes - shipping options and their costs are displayed during checkout before payment, so you can see the delivery charge for your chosen address and service level. The checkout lists the shipping methods available for your destination and the corresponding fees. Any pre-authorisation or final billing to your payment method happens only after you confirm the order, so you’ll know the delivery cost before you complete the purchase.

What warranty coverage is stated for Kobo eReaders on the website?

Kobo’s product documentation and support pages refer to warranty coverage and model-specific legal documentation, with warranty terms available in the user guides and legal & safety sections for each eReader. Warranty length and specific terms can vary by model and territory, so check the device’s support and legal pages for the exact warranty period that applies to your purchase. Warranty claims are handled through the support channels on the site and may require proof of purchase. Consult the device’s support page for details on repairs, replacements or service under warranty.

What is Kobo’s policy on order authorisation and billing at the time of purchase?

Kobo may obtain a pre-authorisation from your card issuer at the time of purchase for an amount up to the order total, and billing usually occurs at purchase or shortly after. For orders with multiple items, authorisation and billing may show as incremental charges as items are processed. The Terms of Sale note that you might see multiple authorisations or billings on your card statement for a single shopping session. If you have questions about authorisations, contact Customer Service to review the order details.

How does Kobo handle refunds for hardware once a returned item is received?

When Kobo receives and inspects a returned eReader, they refund the purchase price to the original payment method, minus any initial delivery fees where applicable. The refund process and timing are outlined in the return instructions given after a return is authorised. You’re responsible for return shipping costs unless stated otherwise in the return authorisation. You’ll get an email confirmation once the refund has been processed.

Are there special return or cancellation provisions for purchases made from third-party retailers?

If you bought a Kobo eReader or accessory from a retail partner rather than kobo.com, you should contact that retailer to find out their return and warranty procedures. Kobo’s direct-return and cancellation policies apply only to purchases from kobo.com. Retail partners may have different timeframes, processes and contact points for returns or warranty claims, so keep your proof of purchase from the retailer to help with any returns or claims.

How are disputes or irregular price-match claims handled and what are the limits?

Kobo can decline or withdraw price-match credits if it believes, in its sole discretion, the request involves fraudulent or misleading activity or otherwise breaches the Price Match Terms. The company will verify competing prices and may limit credits to one per item. Credits issued under the Price Match Guarantee are applied to your Kobo account rather than paid in cash. Kobo also reserves the right to change or cancel the offer in line with its published terms.
