The Offer
Google Play began selling audiobooks earlier this year. They’re now running a special offer:
- Get $10 in free audiobooks credit
- Get $5 in free audiobooks credit
The Fine Print
- Discount applied at checkout
- Price must be at least $5.01 to use the $5 credit and $10.01 to use the $10 credit
- Expiration date will show when you accept the offer (it’s around a month later)
Our Verdict
Seems like almost everyone is getting at least $5. You’ll end up paying a few cents in tax or whatever, but should be possible to get something almost free. I’ve never used Google Play for audiobooks before, maybe I’ll try it out now.

I got the $10 offer. Never bought or looked at audio books on google play
Is there any way to combine two $5-6 books for a $10 credit?
It appears it is only for your first lifetime purchase of an audiobook from the Play Store. I've purchased on before, and the offer doesn't show for me.
Ahh, that makes sense.
I tapped back on my Android phone and it then showed a $3 off $3+ ebooks deal
Any recommendations?
I can't find any audiobooks less than $14.
FYI. the date is a moving target based on when you signed up. my credit expires 8/17. someone else will be 8/18 if they sign up tmrw but im sure its limited supply.
Let me update
Any way to search by price?
SD has a link for titles under $10 which is useful for those who have the $5 offer.
what does your phone look like william is it stuffed with lots of apps im just curioous?
Chuck posted this one, not me. My phone is pretty minimal apart from a few apps I use regularly. I'll often download apps for a bonus and then remove them.
Lol...and I thought I was the only one!! I may keep the Speedpass app because it keeps me from having to physically put my card in the pump. Too risky... especially in my area... John 3:16
