Kobo Plus subscription price
Prices exactly as Kobo Plus charges them. Your card is billed in the same currency, and the conversion is quoted before you confirm, nothing is hidden in the spread.
PayFar charges no monthly fee on the card, you pay Kobo Plus only.
With a PayFar card, nobody needs your Kobo Plus login
Every other route asks you to hand over your Kobo Plus username and password, or to buy a login that belongs to someone else. PayFar issues a Visa card to you instead, you pay Kobo Plus yourself, from your own account.
Resellers and shared accounts
They pay on your behalf: with access to your account
- ✕They ask for your Kobo Plus email and password to pay for you
- ✕You wait hours: sometimes a day, for someone to process the order by hand
- ✕A middleman fee on top of the exchange rate, never itemised
- ✕One card funds dozens of accounts: they get flagged together

What makes a Kobo Plus payment go through
Kobo Plus charges the card on file every month and adds a credit or unlocks the library. Unused credits usually roll over for a while; a failed charge is what loses them.
Books you buy with credits are yours to keep, in the account that bought them. Paying with your own card means that account is yours too, not a shared login that can disappear with its owner.
Book stores license titles by region, so the account's country decides what you can buy. Keep the billing country the same as your PayFar profile and the store stays consistent.
