Buy extended coverage for your Kobo eReader (United States only)

If you live in the United States, you can purchase additional coverage for your Kobo eReader to extend your warranty plan.

Kobo eReaders have a one year warranty. If you want to extended warranty coverage for your eReader, you can purchase a separate protection plan.

To provide you with the best possible service, we've partnered with a third party protection plan provider called Clyde.

How does the coverage work?

Your Kobo eReader comes with a 1 year manufacture warranty.

  • If you purchase a 2-year Clyde Protection Plan, you'll get a total of 2 years of protection coverage. The first year of coverage will be covered by either Kobo or Clyde. The second year will be covered only by Clyde.
  • If you purchase a 3-year Clyde Protection Plan, you will get a total of 3 years of protection coverage. The first year of coverage will be covered by either Kobo or Clyde. The second and third year will be only covered by Clyde.

What's included in the Clyde Protection Plan?

The Clyde extended Protection Plan covers some items that are not included under the Kobo warranty:

  • Protection against accidental damage cause by drops and spills.
  • Mechanical and electrical failure breakdowns after the Kobo warranty expires.
  • Power surge protection.

What's not included in the Clyde Protection Plan?

The Clyde extended protection plan does not cover:

  • Cosmetic damage, such as scratches or dents that do not impact the eReader functionality.
  • Damage from third-party assembly or third-party maintenance of your product.
  • Loss or theft.
  • Battery issues.
  • Other exclusions apply. See Clyde Terms & Condition’s for more information.

Note: Claims are subject to inspections by Clyde before approval.
