Simple Ways to Save at VitalSource
You don't have to pay full price for textbooks! VitalSource offers a few straightforward ways to save money right from the start.
- Rent Instead of Buying: For many titles, you can rent a digital copy for a set period (like 90 or 180 days) at a much lower cost than buying it outright. This is perfect for a single semester.
- Look for "Inclusive Access" or "Direct Digital" Deals: If your school partners with VitalSource, your course materials might be available at a significantly reduced price billed directly through your tuition. Always check with your school's bookstore or course syllabus.
- Check for Promo Codes: Before you check out, always look for a promo code box. You can find current, working codes right here on our coupon website!
