The price of the publishing fee is the retail price without the statutory value added tax and without trade discounts, production and shipping costs.
The retaill price can be determined individually by the respective dealer, unless the nationally bound retail price is determined by law (net book agreement).
If an author chooses a one-time royalty,there is no percentage of the compensation of sales. In this case, the author will receive a one-time payment of 10 euros (depending on the country, if applicable 10 GBP, 10 CHF or 10 USD).
For sales in the context of a licensing to other publishers of the publishing group, the author receives 10% of the publishing fee. These royalties are settled with the publishers once a year.
The annual billing mode also applies to subscription and subscription models, as well as various loan and retrieval models for libraries.
* If you link your texts to a partner code, you can get an extra 5% on each text sold via this link. Read more about the partner program here.
