Buying an ebook on eBooks.com is very straightforward and can be achieved on either the mobile version or the desktop version of our website.

First use the search bar to find the ebook you wish to buy, or you can browse through the categories if you need some inspiration.

From the search results or whilst browsing a section, once you have found an ebook you are interested in, select the cover image or title of the ebook. This will take you to the product page where you can read some more about the book, view the price, the formats available, the print & copy permissions and all other information about the ebook.

Once you have decided to purchase the book, select "Add to Cart" to add the book to your shopping cart. You can then continue shopping, or proceed to the checkout.

At the checkout you will see the contents of your cart, the amount of ebooks you will be purchasing and the total cost of the order before any applicable tax (tax is calculated at the next step in the checkout process). If you want to proceed select "Secure Checkout". If you are not yet signed in to an eBooks.com account, you will then be asked to log in to your eBooks.com account, or if you don't yet have an account you can checkout as a guest (you will then need to create an account later on).

Then, you will be asked to enter your billing address details. This is used to make sure the publisher has the sales rights to sell the ebooks in your country. They will also be used to create an invoice for your order that you can view/print once the order is complete.

At the following step you are asked to enter your payment details. You also have the opportunity to enter a discount voucher or gift certificate code if you have one.

You finalise the purchase by selecting "Process Order". This will take the payment and then shown you confirmation that the purchase has taken place successfully. It is on this confirmation screen that you will be prompted to start reading your ebook straight away. For further help on this please see Reading your ebook.
