Как добавить книгу и настроить форматы продаж

Dear Authors and Publishers! This guide describes the process of creating a book listing on our platform. The settings will vary depending on how you plan to sell your book.

To get started, you’ll need to create a seller account. You can do this in the “Apply for a vendor account” section. Once your account has been approved, you’ll gain access to the dashboard.

Step 1. Basic Information on the Form

  • In the seller dashboard, go to Products → Products and click the + (Add Product) button in the upper-right corner.
  • Fill in the required fields:
    • Title: Enter the book's title.
    • Price: Set the base retail price.
    • Categories: Select genres and categories.
  • In the “Full Description” field, add a description of the book.
  • In the “Excerpt” field, paste a sample excerpt from the work (up to 5,000 characters).
  • ЗUpload the front cover for the storefront in the “Images” section (width: 1,100px, height: 1,468px).
  • Go to the “Specifications” tab.
  • Fill in the required information: author’s name, year of publication, binding type, number of pages, etc.
  • Save your changes. Your book is ready to be published in the storefront!
  • Click the Create  button. After that, additional tabs will appear on the card for configuring your sales format.


Step 2. Set Up the Sales Format

Option A: E-book Sale The buyer pays for the item and downloads the book file.

  • On the General tab, scroll down to the “Advanced” section and check the “Downloadable Product” box.
  • At the very top of the product card, go to the “Files for Sale” tab (not to be confused with “Attached Files”!).
  • Click “Add File,” enter a name (for example, “Book in EPUB format”), and upload the file.
  • In the file settings, choose whether access to the download will be limited by time or by the number of downloads.
  • Click “Create.”
