Your title will be globally orderable through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop.org, BAM!, Powell's, Waterstones, Chapters Indigo, and any independent bookstore in North America, Europe, Australia, and the UK connected to the Ingram network.
With distribution in Ingram's catalog, your book is instantly available in their ordering system. Any reader can walk into a bookstore and request it, and bookstores can order copies for their physical shelves, author signings, or local interest displays.
When a reader in Sydney, London, or Tokyo places an order, the book is printed at a certified regional facility in Australia, the UK, or Asia and shipped locally within 24 to 48 hours. This minimizes delivery time and eliminates costly international customs fees.
Your royalty equals the retail price minus the wholesale discount (typically 40%–55%) minus the printing cost. The remaining net profit is 100% yours. We do not take ongoing percentage cuts of your book royalties.
