Book Earnings Program
Expanding our support of schools, educators and non-profit organizations and in recognition of growing talent among our members in creative writings, children stories, poetry and biography, we have designed our Author Profit program to facilitate sales of books specially created at Bookemon for fundraising purposes in addition to for personal rewards. As an author, you can add a desired dollar amount per copy to be paid out when your books are sold at Bookemon to a 3rd party. This will not affect the base price of the book paid by the book creator.Book Earnings are based on payments received by Bookemon for your content. This means that your book earnings may be adjusted for refunds or fraudulent orders for which Bookemon does not receive payment. Questions on selling your book for earnings?

How does book earnings work?
You can choose to sell your book on our site for earnings. It is totally up to you on the book earnings you would want.

If discounts have been applied to volume purchases or sales to booksellers such as Amazon and others, your book earnings will be reduced proportional to the discount and if the discounts to booksellers exceed the amount of book earnings set by you, no book earnings will be accrued to your account. Please review the Book Earnings Payment section in our Membership Agreement for details.
