guide to RIDIBOOKS

  • I won't go into details about how to open an account, since I believe anyone can do that...

  • this tutorial is going to show how to purchase r19 books since profundis is in r19 category.

  • first of all, I recommend using google chrome, since it will make the whole process easier.

  • to purchase r19 books/webtoons, you will have to verify that you are an adult.

  • click that home button.

  • you will see "1:1 문의" (1:1 inquiry) on the left side. click on that.

  • click the box "해외거주고객 성인인증 접수" (acceptance of adult certification for overseas viewers).


  • this is what you will see.

  • if you are on google chrome and allow auto google translation service, you will see the translated version like this one.

  • now all you have to do is fill in all the requirements. Just use English to fill in.

  • when you reach "신분증 종류" (ID type), just use whatever you are comfortable with. I used my driving license, since that's a government ID I have that show my birthday in English.

  • cover/blur out your face on the id card you are using and all your personal information (addresses, phone numbers, etc.), except your birthday.

  • click submit! and you are done! wait for a few days. when your ridibooks webpage or app is now showing r19 books/webtoons, you have verified it successfully. now, you can see... stuff.

  • moving on to the topic of buying ridicash.

  • go back to your ridihome page.

  • click on "리디캐시" (ridicash), at the upper-left corner with the won symbol.

  • ridi gives away points in % so, if you buy 2000 won ridicash, you will receive 3% points back, total 60 won worth of points. I recommend buying ridicash on the 1st to the 3rd days of every month, so the bonus ridipoints you receive can be doubled. 3% becomes 6% so 120 won! you can buy a webnovel chapter with that (they are 100 won per chapter).

  • select "credit card issued overseas", not "credit card". that's for korean banks and services.

  • ridibooks gives away discount tickets from time to time, so look out for those. If you are lucky, there might even be 100% cashback events or 50% discounts, or free rents.

  • and that's it! now you can go anywhere you like, click on the books/webtoons you wanna read, click the blue button on the side of the chapters (on the web) or the download button (on the apps), and purchase!

  • just play around with the site and you will be able to navigate easily in time.

  • don't forget to give likes, star ratings, and comments, so the creators get more exposure!

  • happy reading!
