Learn how to give one user access to select books or categories and remove access to the rest of the library.

If you haven't already, read about Kotobee Promo Codes, to get the most out of them.


One promo code can grant access to any combination of books and categories. We'll show you here how to set the access permissions for any promo code.


If you set your promo codes to be used in addition to user logins, then the first time the user uses the promo code while logged in,  the permissions granted by the promo code will automatically transfer to the user and the user will not need to enter the promo code each time.
