New to OkadaBooks? Here’s How To Get Started

Karanta Cikin Hausa - Read in English

You’ve heard of how awesome we are and finally want to join the party. Don’t worry, you’re not late, there’s still plenty of room. This step-by-step tutorial will help you get acclimatized with OkadaBooks and party with books non-stop like there’s no tomorrow (but there is one, and it’s for you to read more books).

Let’s get started!

Step 1: Visit your usual store (Playstore or iOS) to download the OkadaBooks app to your device.

Step 2: After installing. Start the app and register your username with your email or your Facebook account.

Step 3: Inside the app. Click on the PROFILE button and then the REFILL button to top up your account.

Step 4: To add the amount of money you wish to top-up with, you can do so in three ways.

They are:
a) You may use a DEBIT or CREDIT CARD to add money to your OkadaBooks account through Paystack.
b) AIRTIME TRANSFER
c) BANK TRANSFER

NB: The first option instantly refills your account. The other two are subject to confirmation before a refill can occur. You are expected to fill the refill form after your transfer to make a manual refill possible. The refill form can be found on the same page as the instruction, at the bottom (PROCEED).

Step 5: After refilling your account, still inside the OkadaBooks app, go back to HOME and then use the SEARCH ICON to search for your desired book. With your account topped-up, now you can buy the book(s) of your choice and DOWNLOAD into your device.

Step 6: Go back to the LIBRARY menu in the App, there you’ll see the book(s) you’ve bought and can read it without being connected to the internet.

    I just started and was a bit confused. This was quite helpful. Why not put this write-up or video as part of the first things a new user can see immediately after downloading the App? It’s a suggestion, though.
