Kobo store gift card7/24/2023 I had 2-3 series that I knew were are part of the program on my TBR so I made sure to add those to my list when I got the service. And when you click on a title to read more about it (and you are a part of the program), there is a button on the side that says “Available with Kobo Plus - Add to My Books”. You can also add a filter to your searches that will only show Kobo Plus titles based on your search term. Listed beside prices are the words “Free with Kobo Plus”. It’s super easy to see what titles are a part of the program throughout the site. That was perfect for me because those are typically the books I buy from Kobo since they aren’t often available at my library (unlike major publishing house titles). Like Kindle Unlimited, most of the titles available with the service are self-published independently published or small publishing house titles. I already had a Kobo Account and I made sure I went through Rakuten (referral link) to get cashback for trying the service as well. > Sign up for cashback & get $30 back when you sign up for Rakuten! (referral link) My Experience: –Signing-Up–įor Black Friday/Cyber Monday in November 2021, Kobo had an incentive to get a 60-day free trial of Kobo Plus if you signed up during the promotional period (instead of the usual 30-day free trial). However, you can read the books without wifi once they are downloaded to your device. You can sync books and send them directly to your device of choice via wifi. (The Kobo App is great on phones from my experience!). You don’t need a Kobo eReader to read the books using the reading app on your phone or tablet will do the trick. You can send and hold 15 books at a time on your device, but once you’ve “returned” one, you can take out another as long as you have an active subscription. For $9.99 CAD (plus tax) a month, you can read as many titles from the Kobo Plus catalogue as you want. Kobo Plus is a monthly eBook only subscription service. At the end, I will do a comparison to my Kindle Unlimited and Scribd experiences just to give some context. So I was very, very excited when Kobo launched its own unlimited reading service in the summer of 2020.Īs I do with all my book Service Reviews, I’m going to lay out the basics of the Kobo Plus Service and give my take on it independently (ie this is not a paid promotional post by Kobo). I’ve been waiting (and begging) Kobo to have a similar service for years. A lot of the books I read are independently published and when you read 100+ books a year, Kindle Unlimited offers a great way to read those books without breaking my bank - but still be able to support the authors monetarily. The ability to read as many books as I can for one price is AMAZING. > SERIESous Guide: How to Buy an eReaderīut one of the features I do like about my Kindle is the option to use the Kindle Unlimited Program. Also, in Canada, I can only put library books on my Kobo since they are ePub files–which can’t be opened on Kindles. I love the reader friendly features of the device and that they were originally a Canadian based company. I’ve been a long time Kobo eReader User and, if asked, I’d say that I prefer my Kobo to my Kindle if I had to choose. **This is in no way affiliated with Kobo! It is simply my take on using the service!**
