My new book, Digital Minimalism, which comes out on February 5th, is available for pre-order.
If you live in the US, you can pre-order from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or a local bookstore (as well as many other retailers).
If you live in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, India or Africa, you can pre-order the UK edition at Amazon UK. (The book is also being translated into over a dozen different languages, but these will come later.)
For multiple reasons, pre-orders are much more useful than normal sales, so if you were already thinking about buying my new book, I want to humbly nudge toward considering a pre-order, and if you already pre-ordered, I want to underscore my gratitude.
To demonstrate my sincere thanks to those who take the time to help my book in this manner, I’ve put together the following incentive packages:
If you pre-order 1 copy of the book before February 5th, you’ll receive:
- A video tutorial, narrated by me, that provides an inside look at the specific productivity systems I use to organize my work week.
- A standalone guide to the Digital Declutter process (as featured in the New York Times and detailed in my book) that I recommend for transitioning into a digital minimalist lifestyle.
- A 40% discount code for the Freedom internet blocking software profiled in the book.
- Claim your 1 copy bonuses here…
If you pre-order 2+ copies of the book (one for you and one for a friend) before February 5th, you’ll receive:
- All of the above bonuses.
- Access to the private Digital Minimalist Book Club. For one month after the book releases in February, I’ll be be posting a weekly private video for book club members where I answer their questions about the book (or any related topics), submitted through a special email address provided only to book club members.
- Claim your 2+ copy bonuses here…
TO ACCESS THE BONUSES:
- Pre-order Digital Minimalism from any retailer and in any format. If you have already pre-ordered (thank you!), you just need to find your invoice number from the digital receipt.
- Fill out THIS FORM with your invoice number(s) and contact details. (Note: If you ordered 2+ copies using multiple different orders, that’s no problem: the form can accept multiple invoice numbers.)
- Gain immediate access to the bonuses. Once you’ve filled out the above form, links for downloading the bonuses will appear on the form’s confirmation page. For those of you who order 2+ copies, you’ll also be provided the special email address for submitting questions for the book club. The instructions for how to access the book club videos will then be emailed to you in February.
does this count for the audiobook version aswell?
Never mind I read through it too quickly.
I’ve had this book pre-ordered since September 1st 2018. I’ve never been excited for a book after reading Deep Work. Thank you so much Cal for the amazing content/advice!
I am from Germany, can I order at German Amazon (the book is available as preoderthere, too) or has it to be the UK Amazon?
Hi Jacob, I pre-ordered the book from German Amazon long time ago, so you can do it as well 🙂
German preorders at Amazon have been canceled a few weeks ago. Additionally there is no Kindle version available anymore. I won’t preorder the paperbook anyway.
Just wondering what’s going on.
I live in Germany and the book is available at amazon.de, why is it necessary to order from Amazon UK?
Sorry I wasn’t clear about this, but you can order from Amazon.de (or whatever your local Amazon is) as well.
It gets a little confusing, but the version you see with the white cover is the UK/International version, while the yellow and white cover is the US version. The content is the same for both. My understanding is that you’ll get the UK/International version quicker as it’s not being shipped across the ocean.
I pre-ordered about a month ago, from “Book Depository” – does that count? They’re not listed in the “other retailers” list but I believe they belong to Amazon.
Can’t wait to read it!
I think that should be fine. Let me know, of course, if there’s any issues and we’ll get you sorted out.
It worked, thanks 🙂
Does buying from Amazon Germany also count?
It worked for me, I got the bonus after ordering from German Amazon as well.
For those who live in Australia: it is available on amazon.com.au ($26.42 – hardcover)
Although it is shipped from Amazon US. However, delivery is free with Amazon Prime on orders over $49
I find the white cover (with a broken USB data cable) more appealing than the yellow one.
There is another one with an orange cover and dissolving smartphone (available on angusrobertson.com.au – $39.41 hardcover) – looking even better – typical Cal’s orange cover (as in both SGTCIY & Deep Work)
You have mentioned the book is being translated. Is polish one of the lucky languages?
Not yet. But in that region there will be Russian, Czech and German editions…
hi! I pre-ordered from Amazon Brasil! 🙂 It is cool to see that the book already has a global reach.
Congratulations, Cal and study hackers.
In The Digital Declutter Guide, page 1, there is what appears to be a line-break of the word “provides” in the middle of the line.
“Much like decluttering your house, this lifestyle experiment pro-vides a reset for your digital life by…”
Nice to see a new book from you!
Is it by design that we don’t see a Kindle version of this or will we see one soon?
How did you ass a profile photo ?
Correction : How did you add a photo to your profile?
Is there anywhere to pre-order in .epub format? I clicked around but could only find Kindle/Nook formats
Does buying the hardback book plus the audio book count as buying 2 books? Thank you!
– I see that Google Play also offers your upcoming book for “Pre-Order”… Will the goodies apply there as well? (I’m already sold on buying, Cal, you know me, so I’ll buy your stuff one way or another: I’ve been following and promoting your uncommonly sane and sensible thinking for years, and own every single book you’ve written to date!) 🙂 🙂
– Do lemme (and other readers, too) know about Google Play. Would appreciate that…
Unfortunately it seems like I can’t pre-order from the major book dealers in Sweden (it’s only possible to be put on a waiting list), would definitely do it otherwise as I’m really excited for the incentive packages.
Pre-ordered and shared with my colleagues (we’re very into getting maximum value from our time). Thanks so much for the extras! Much appreciated.
Preordered! 🙂
Hey Cal, and what happens if I want to pre-order it but I’m from South America, specifically Peru? Can you recommend me a web site to do so?
Thank you!
Hi Cal,
I’m from Australia, would love to pre-order this!
Can I pre-order 1 Apple Books copy (using the Apple Books store) and 1 hard copy from Amazon Australia and claim the 2+ copy bonuses?
Thanks!
Hi Cal,
I’m from Australia, would love to pre-order this!
Can I pre-order 1 Apple Books copy (using the Apple Books store) and 1 hard copy from the Amazon Australia store and
That should work (let me know if it doesn’t)
Thanks! (And apologies for accidental double-post.)
Unfortunately, Apple Books doesn’t give me an invoice number or anything like that – which is annoying. See, e.g. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6849035.
Any ideas on how to overcome this situation, or will I need to pre-order using a different format?
Several people from Australia has asked me about trouble pre-ordering the book. If you’re in Australia, you need to pre-order from Amazon in Australia (amazon.com.au) instead of through Amazon UK. The same holds for India and South Africa: use the local version of Amazon to pre-order.
What’s the best method for pre-ordering in North Africa, especially Egypt?
In Canada: https://www.chapters.indigo.ca/en-ca/books/digital-minimalism-choosing-a-focused/9780525536512-item.html
Pre-ordered and already watched the video. As a professor myself, and mom of a college student, I have really appreciated your blog and books.
I would love to see a video on prioritizing. The tutorial shows us the way deadlines influence your workflow. But what besides deadlines determines what gets from your Workflowy on to your weekly list?
Thanks again for the pre-order bonuses. They are terrific!
When it’s release in Spanish language?
Hey Cal, I noticed your email on your contact page is down; emails are not getting through. Is that intentional?
I’m curious to know if you have heard of Anki or read augmenting long term memory by Michael Nielson. https://augmentingcognition.com/ltm.html
It’s a bit outside your current theme of focus, but a very interesting take on the use of quiz and recall, which was one of your main themes in the early days of study hacks.
I’m also curious if you still use quiz and recall today in studying techniques for your research?
Thanks for the extras, Cal.
There’s no ebook available for preorder. I tried Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.com.
Would it be possible to preorder your book in ebook format to get access to bonuses?
I will preorder this via my Local, Independent book store – I don’t know if I will get a digital receipt of number or any other proof. It’s not really about the bonus for me, but is there a way to prove you preordered if you are using a source not listed on your web page?
Thanks – looking forward to the new book
Hello,
It doesn’t look like we can pre-order from Amazon UK
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Digital-Minimalism-Choosing-Focused-Noisy/dp/0525536515/ref=la_B001IGNR0U_1_9?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1548427157&sr=1-9
Congrats on your article in the New York Times today! Good read; got me thinking…
I have already pre oredered it long ago from Amazon….Awaiting Cal’s new book…Cant wait any longer to get it delivered…You are my Favorite author Cal..Thanks to you!!!!
In an interview I heard you said you were a big believer in doing something hard everyday. I thought it sounded very interesting could you elaborate more on that and explain why you think it’s a good idea?
Hi Cal,
I pre-ordered two copies on Amazon (second copy for my brother) and submitted the order numbers. I did not see anything for the book club but presume that comes later but was not sure since you already have questions that you are addressing from the Book Club as in your latest post.
Heard the Ezra Klein interview yesterday so even more excited about next week’s release.
As Jean above says, Amazon UK say it’s currently unavailable. I wish i’d ordered earlier! Will this be rectified Cal? I’m a huge fan of your work.
It appears to be available now. It has a white cover.
Hurray for minimalism !
I myself left France for Vietnam find a simpler life and working in a chiller environment. Best life decision ever.
Looking forward to getting into the bonuses, reading the book, and releasing a review on my new blog! I asked leadership coach and entreprenuer, Michael Hyatt, about your book, and he is well aware of the release and it’s importance in the conversation on intentional digital life.
nice information, its an era of digital marketing and digitization
Hello,
I pre-ordered 2 copies of the book and filled out the form to gain access to the bonuses. Unfortunately I did not realize I was supposed to download the bonus materials right away and now I have no way to access them. I also didn’t save the e-mail address to send questions to. Is there any way I can retrieve this information?
Hi Monica,
The same thing happened to me with purchasing the one book. I got the pdf downloaded but must have missed the video. Hope we can still retrieve!
Thanks
I cannot find the form to gain access to the bonuses.
I pre-ordered one copy of the book on January, 14th, via amazon.com. My order #: D01-4044337-7485021.
Thank you!
I have the same problem.
I’ve ordered on amazon.co.uk – my order # 202-7738016-2610736
Best.
I’m having the same issue! I preordered, but it seems like the form for bonuses (which I didn’t know about until today) is not available now that the book is out?
I am having the same problem as JUDITH DEURVORST. I pre-ordered the book late December 2018 via amazon.de (I have the invoice with me in case you need proof). Cannot find the form for the bonuses. Please help.
Still waiting on that someone from Portfolio to contact me and help me get the bonuses…. help please.
Pre-ordered the book last year and cannot access the form to claim the Freedom 40% discount.
Is the link to the form broken? It’s just taking me back to Cal’s homepage.
I pre-ordered the book before the launch at a local retailer, I was waiting until I received the book to apply for the bonuses but now it appears the link no longer works. What can I do to still get the bonuses?
I am also unable to claim bonuses for 2 pre-orders at this time. Did they expire or something? I pre-ordered one in Jan then another in Feb to increase the bonus. I got the ones for the first 1 but didn’t get the ones for the 2+. What should I do at this point if the link just brings me to the book page now?
I have the same problem as Jeroen. I pre-orderd at amazon.de and received it yesterday. This reminded me to get the bonus. But the link does not work.
Ditto. I pre-ordered one copy of the book and there is no working link for the pre-order bonuses.
I have the same problem as the people above. I preordered the book and wanted to download the bonus a couple of days ago, but the form is no longer working.
I’ve pre-ordered two copies and claimed bonuses (pdf and video). I was waiting for some kind of invitation to Digital Minimalist Book Club but didn’t get any. Now I wondering that maybe form only counted one pre-order number so I was added to one copy tier. Are videos for the book club already out? Can I write somewhere to be added to the group? Thanks!!
Hello, I have preordered the book before its launch, I haven’t claimed the bonuses at the time. When I try to do so now, the provided link redirects me to this website. Can you please help me? I specifically preordered the book for the bonuses but I forgot to claim them at the time
I have the same issues as the other commenters, I specifically preordered the book for the bonuses, but I forgot to fill the form at the time and when I try to do so now, it just redirects me to this site homepage. Help, please!
LOGISTICAL NOTE:
–> If you pre-ordered the books but forgot to fill out the form, leave a comment, and someone from Portfolio will help you get the bonuses you deserve.
–> If you pre-ordered 2+ books, you will be receiving information via email soon about the book club. The first video is on its way…
I have pre-ordered. Please help. Thanks!

Hello! I pre-ordered but still need to complete the form.
Hi, I preordered the book way back in November, but the form for claiming my bonuses seems to have disappeared. Can I still get them?
Same here, I pre-ordered well before the due date, but the link for the FORM isn’t taking me to the form, it just takes me back to the book. Can you please let us know how we can fill out the form. As somebody who pre-ordered in order to support Cal, I would really appreciate if you can fix the form so I can fill it in to get access to the bonus material.

I have pre-ordered the book, but forgot to fill out the form.
I am a huge fan of Deep Work and have now begun reading Digital Minimalism which I did pre-order (one copy). Can you please send me a link and/or instructions on how to claim the free bonuses as I can’t seem to figure how to gain access to the video etc.
Many thanks,
Paul
Hi, I forgot to fill out the form for my preorder and tried to use the link to the form and hunt around online for a way to do it last week but failed. Can you help, please? I ordered on Amazon and can provide an order number/evidence of purchase. Thanks, Michael.

I preordered the book and loved it!!
I’d love to claim my bonuses!!!

Thanks, Matthew
I would like help accessing the pre-order bonuses. I ordered before the release and was not able to access the bonuses. I especially was interested in Cal’s video re how he organizes his schedule. Link posted above does not take you to bonuses.

I preordered 2 copies and I got the emails for the book club videos but I cannot find the link to the tutorial video about your productivity system. Is there anyway to get access to that still?
I second!
I did not us pre-order or nor get a chance.
Leaving a note per Cal’s email of 20th Feb 2019. I originally pre-ordered, and want to get access to the bonus content listed here. Hope Cal’s publishers can get in touch. Thanks!
Hy, I preordered this books anyone tell one how much discount i get for two books..
If i preordered this books so how much time to delivered to me.
While the boat has clearly sailed on these pre-order bonuses… I was wondering if the standalone guide to the Digital Declutter process is available anywhere else now for purchase? Thanks!
