The success of Kobo\u2019s subscriber-based Kobo Plus<\/strong> just keeps opening new doors for authors and their books. What started in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Canada expanded quickly to include Australia, New Zealand, Italy, France, and Portugal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EDIT: As of May 1, 2025, the current regions Kobo Plus is available in include Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Chile, Columbia, Denmark, Finland, France, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, Portugal, Singapore, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, Kobo Plus is crisscrossing the pond to help you reach readers in the US and in the UK.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With subscription tiers that run at a budget-friendly $7.99 USD or \u00a39,99 GBP per month, Kobo is giving readers access to a massive catalog of books and authors, in two of the biggest English-reading markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And now you can opt your books into those markets and increase your discoverability and your chance for more revenue!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have already agreed to be opted in<\/b> as new territories open for Kobo Plus, congratulations!<\/b> Your books are already on their way to these two new markets! If you have excluded the US and the UK<\/strong> from distribution, don\u2019t worry<\/strong>! Your books will not be sent to those territories, per your request. <\/span>

Otherwise, a popup will greet you next time you log in, allowing you to opt-in all your Kobo Plus books to either <\/span>all<\/i> or <\/span>select<\/i> territories.<\/span> <\/div>\"Graphic
OR...<\/span><\/div>You can simply select which territories you would like to join from the publish page of any of your books.

READER FOCUS MEANS EVERYBODY WINS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Kobo Plus Payout Model<\/strong> is based on the number of readers subscribing and reading books through the service. This is a little different than some other subscription models you may have experienced. The revenue-sharing model is based on the number of subscribers that Kobo Plus gets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The more subscribers the service has, the more revenue there is to share.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And now, with so many new territories joining the pool of subscribers is bound to increase. More people to discover your books!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
