Of course there are the big online shops like Amazon, iBook Store, Thalia, Weltbild, Hugendubel, Google Play, Nook by Barnes & Noble and many more. Here you can see the entire list of our partner shops. If you do not want to supply a shop or a country for any reason, you can always exclude it.

Do I Need a Publishing House?

No, as a selfpublisher you do not need a publishing house. In any case, you have to specify a publisher's name and you can simply choose your desired publisher's name. But you do not really have to found your own publishing company (but of course you can, if you want). Popular publisher names are those in which your name appears, or the subject or genre you're in.

Please make sure not to mention a publisher you do not work with.

Can I Also Offer My eBook as a Printed Book or Audiobook?

Yes, you can also offer your eBook as an audiobook and as a physical book via our Print on Demand tool. Your book is then listed in the VLB as well as with the wholesalers (KNV, Libri and Umbreit). Thus, the entire book trade in Germany, Austria and Switzerland as well as all online shops have access to your book. [Your advantage: The book is not printed until an order is received. You do not have high printing costs in advance.

Can I Sell My eBook on My Own Website?

Yes, of course! You can sell your eBook on your own website and in any other shop we do not deliver to.

Does My eBook Need a Minimum Page count?

No, there is no minimum amount. For eBooks in fact, there is no fixed number of pages, as they vary depending on the font size on the eBook reader or tablet. You can also have a look, which extent is customary in your genre or topic. In addition, the content should fit both the price and the title. A 500-page "quick guide" is not quite consistent.

Can I Publish My eBook with a Pen Name?

Yes, of course you can publish your eBook with a pen or artist name. You can also use multiple pen names, if you're writing books in different genres. But you should always make sure that your desired pen name is not already used. You definitely want to avoid someone writing erotic novels under the same name while you're a children's books author. You should also refrain from academic titles if you do not actually have one.

Do I Need an Imprint for My eBook?

Yes, according to the Telemedia Act you definitely need an imprint for your eBook, this is not a voluntary statement and is a must-have in every book and eBook. The imprint is also obligatory if you publish your eBook with a pen name, a simple e-mail address and the pen name are not sufficient. It must be ensured that the reader receives information about the author and publisher. If you have a pen name, you can alternatively enter your publisher's name.

Does My eBook Need an ISBN?

Yes, every eBook needs its own ISBN. If you publish a book and eBook, you need a separate ISBN for both, even if they have the same content and the same cover. You can either use your own ISBN or let us assign you one for free.

Who Determines the Sales Price?

The price of your eBook is set by yourself! At your desired price, your eBook will be offered in all online shops. You can also offer your eBook for free, or increase or lower the price later. You could do this for example if you want to start a price campaign before Christmas to increase your sales.

Can I Create a Free ePUB File of My eBook?

Yes, we at Feiyr offer you a free conversion to the ePub format for your eBook. All you have to do is provide us with your Word file and we will quickly convert the ebook into ePub format.
