Orders & payment

How do I buy an e-book?

Open the book you want, click Add to cart, then go to checkout. Enter your email and billing details, pay, and your download will be available immediately.

Which payment methods do you accept?

The payment methods available to you are shown at checkout. All payments are processed by secure, PCI-DSS compliant payment providers. We never see or store your full card number.

Do I need an account to buy?

No. You can check out as a guest. Creating an account lets you find all your e-books in My Account > Downloads at any time.

What currency are your prices in?

All prices are in US dollars (USD). Any taxes that apply are shown at checkout before you pay. There are no shipping costs and no hidden fees.

Is it safe to pay on ReadLab?

Yes. Our whole website uses an encrypted HTTPS connection, and payments are handled by trusted payment providers.

Delivery & downloads

How will I receive my e-book?

Instantly after payment, in three ways: a download button on the order confirmation page, an email with your download link, and your My Account > Downloads page.

How long does delivery take?

Usually just a few minutes. If a payment needs extra verification by the payment provider, your download becomes available as soon as the payment is confirmed, normally within 24 hours.

Do you ship physical books?

No. ReadLab sells digital e-books only, so nothing is shipped and delivery is free worldwide.

How many times can I download my e-book?

Each purchase includes 5 downloads, valid for 365 days. We recommend saving a copy of your file. If you need more downloads, just contact us.

I did not receive my download link. What should I do?

Check your spam or promotions folder, then log in to My Account and open Downloads. Still nothing? Email contact@readlab.shop with your order number and we will send your file within 1 business day.

Formats & reading

What format are your e-books in?

The format is shown on every product page. Most of our e-books are PDF files, which open on almost any device.

Which devices can I read on?

Any phone, tablet, or computer with a PDF reader (most devices have one built in). Many e-readers also open PDF files. For example, Kindle devices can receive PDF files through Amazon's Send to Kindle service.

Can I share or resell my e-book?

No. Each purchase gives you a personal, non-transferable licence to read the e-book on your own devices. See our Terms & Conditions.

Refunds

Can I get a refund?

Because e-books are digital, all sales are final, except when the file is defective, was not delivered, you were charged twice, or the purchase was not authorised. In these cases you can request a refund within 14 days. Full details are in our Refund Policy.

How long does a refund take?

Approved refunds are sent to your original payment method within 5 business days. Your bank may take a few more days to show it on your statement.

I bought the wrong book. Can you help?

Contact us before downloading the file and we will do our best to help.

Support & privacy

How do you use my personal data?

We only use your data to process your order, deliver your e-books and support you. We never sell or rent your data. Read our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
