Frequently asked questions

FAQs

How many books and courses can I create with a Mini Author Membership?

Up to 100 books and courses. A Free Author Membership lets you write three books and one course.

How often can I preview or publish with a Mini Author Membership?

Up to 20 times per month. On a Free Author Membership it's up to 5 times per month. If you need more, a Light Author Membership lets you preview or publish an unlimited number of times per month.

What royalty rate does Leanpub pay?

We pay 80% on books and courses priced at $7.99 and up. Below $7.99, we pay 80% minus 50 cents. So, you earn $3.50 from a $5 sale, $8 from a $10 sale, $16 from a $20 sale, and $24 from a $30 sale. You'd be surprised how many people buy $20 and $30 ebooks, and $89 or $129 courses!

More books. More courses. More publishes.
