In fact, most Books.by authors are already publishing their books on Amazon, and choose to send customers to their Books.by link for higher earnings.

Rather than take a commission on the sale of your book, we earn our income by charging a flat annual fee for the use of the Books.by platform. This allows us to invest in building more tools for authors, while affording you the margins to sell more books.

Books.by is available in the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. We have printing facilities all around the world (predominantly in the USA, Europe, UK and Australia), with international shipping options to provide global sales coverage.
