as needed). Registered members who sign up for our email

- Search for eBooks: On the left side of
most pages at the Wildside Press eBook Store are various search options, including
search by keyword, search by genre (e.g., science fiction, fantasy,
nonfiction, etc.), or search by browsing various categories (e.g.,
Authors, Award-Winners, Best Sellers, New eBooks, etc.). the Wildside Press eBook Store sells both unencrypted (called MultiFormat) and encrypted "Secure" eBooks. On each eBook description page the formats that eBook are available in are clearly indicated. Learn more about formats and devices, or learn more about MultiFormat and Secure formats.
- Purchasing eBooks (Safe
Shopping Guarantee): To purchase, first add eBooks to
your cart. To avoid credit card processing fees for small purchases
(under $5), consider using the the Wildside Press eBook Store
Micropay System. You can add $5 units to your Micropay Account,
and then buy eBooks using Micropay! Or you can purchase with your
credit card (American Express, Visa, Mastercard, or Discover). Credit card purchases require users to submit a CVV2 code, which is a special 3 or 4 digit number on the card. Learn more about CVV2.
- Downloading eBooks: Once you have completed
your purchase, go to your Bookshelf and download your eBooks.
Make sure you first select an eBook format you wish to read (you
can set your default format on the top left of your Bookshelf).
You can download your eBooks as needed in any of the formats that
the eBook is available in. If you have purchased an unencrypted "MultiFormat" eBook, then you can download that title in up to 8 unencrypted formats. If you have purchased an encrypted eBook, then you can download that title in the one specific encrypted format that you selected during the purchase process. Important Note: Once an eBook has been downloaded, it cannot be refunded or exchanged. Please make sure you can read eBooks in your chosen format before downloading.
