Title: Pre-orders and KU
Post by: NathanBurrows on October 22, 2018, 12:42:05 AM

Can I have a book available for pre-order on wide platforms while still in KU does anyone know? So that when it comes out of KU it’s ready to go on other platforms?

Thanks.

The reason is because you could effectively be wide all the time, letting your renewal lapse for 2 days while the preorders go out, then re-enrolling for the benefits.

The reason I asked is that I’ve got a book coming out of KU soon and had put it in for a BookBub. Then I realised that would be a wait for it to appear in the other stores. Bit too enthusiastic on my part, so I’ve cancelled the featured deal application.
