Here we have collected common questions and answers about the book club. If you have more questions, contact us then we will help you!
NOTE! If you are a member of our older, more manual version of the book club, where you pay by invoice, you always need to contact us to make changes, such as address changes. There is again a connection between that version of the club and your account on olika.nu. To get that connection, sign up for a subscription that is debited via card, simple and convenient!
How do you select books for OLIKA book club?
The book club is divided by age. But age is just a number and children are different. Feel free to try a club you think is suitable and if you are unsure, choose a recurring subscription so that you can easily change clubs. There are also sample readings for each book so you can see if the book is suitable for your child.
When and how often will the books arrive?
The books are sent out every other month; February, April, June, August, October and December, that is the club's mailing months.
How do I pay the club?
The club is paid by card, unfortunately we cannot offer an invoice. You can choose between a running or fixed subscription, the fixed one comes in two options, 6 months (3 books) or 12 months (6 books). All clubs are paid in advance and then we send out the correct number of books.
When will I get the first book in OLIKA's book club?
It depends on when you join, see what our periods look like below. If you join:
Sometime in December-January , you will receive the first book in February
Sometime in February - March, you will receive the first book in April
Sometime in April - May , you will receive the first book in June
Sometime in June - July , you will receive the first book in August
Sometime in August - October , you will receive the first book in December
When you join the club, the current amount is deducted from your card on the same day, and then the amount is always deducted on the 1st of every other month. You will receive an email from us every time an order is placed and payment is deducted, so you can easily see what is happening.
The payment date and the shipping date are therefore different and this is because our technical solution cannot handle anything other than immediate payments while we have fixed shipping dates. We hope this does not cause you any concerns.
How are the books in OLIKA's book club sent?
The books are sent with Early Bird. In cases where Early Bird cannot deliver to your address, Early Bird will be replaced with City Mail. You will receive a notification on your mobile number and on your email from Early Bird when the package is delivered.
Can I skip a book, pause a subscription, or cancel?
Do you have one? ongoing subscription You can do all this yourself. Log in to your account here at olika.nu or click "Manage Subscription" in your welcome email from us.
If you want to cancel an upcoming book, you need to do so before the money is deducted for that book. Since you pay the club in advance, we always send out the books that you have already paid for.
You will always receive an email from us the day before the money is to be withdrawn, and then you have the option to pause or cancel. However, once the money has been withdrawn, it is not possible to cancel that particular shipment. If you do not have time to cancel and the money is withdrawn from your account, we will send out the book that you have already paid for, after which no more books will arrive.
If you want to cancel the book club, you need to do so two months before the next mailing, which always takes place at the beginning of the months of February, April, June, August, October and December.
The fixed subscription cannot be skipped, paused, or ended.
How do I know which book is coming out next?
Two months before the mailing date, you will receive an email with information about the next book. If you have an ongoing subscription and want to make changes, you can pause or cancel yourself, see above. If your subscription premium has already been deducted for the current mailing, the book you have paid for will be sent, after which the subscription will be terminated. When you join the book club, you also agree that we will send you emails with information about the next book.
Can I give away a subscription?
It works great. What you need to do then is to fill in that the subscription is to a different delivery address, you do this at checkout. If you sign up for an ongoing subscription, however, only you who have purchased and have a login can make changes. You are also the one who receives emails with information about upcoming books.
How do I change my address in the book club?
You can easily log in to your account and change your address. The order that has already been placed is not affected by your change, but it is in the upcoming order that your change will be included. We do not receive any information from address changes or similar from Address Changes or the Swedish Tax Agency, therefore it is important that you change your address yourself.

This is how the OLIKA book club works
A book club that cares
When you join OLIKA book club, you get a book club that cares about the future. We work hard to reduce our carbon emissions and create a sustainable children's book. That's why we only print at Nordic Ecolabelled printers.
The majority of the books are also printed on recycled paper that is marked with the EU Flower, the European equivalent of the Nordic Ecolabel (there is currently no Nordic Ecolabelled recycled paper for children's books). The books that are printed on new paper always have Nordic Ecolabelled paper. Of course, all paper is FSC-labelled, that is a basic requirement.
