General rules for partner channels — check them whenever you have a question.
Up to 60 days after authorisation for the book to appear at partner channels. Changes to an already published book take the same amount of time.
A valid ISBN is mandatory on most channels. Without one the book will not be accepted, no matter how long you wait.
Books with flaps are automatically adapted to a format without flaps for international channels, which do not accept that finish.
Up to 20% of the content may be made available for preview on partner platforms.
The ePub format is required by e-book retailers. Files submitted only as PDF will not be accepted by every channel.
Distribution only happens with your authorisation at publication. Without it, the book is available solely on Literary Highways platforms.
These are the rules in summary. The Partner Channel Distribution Regulations contain the full text — eligibility, deadlines, royalties, pricing and technical requirements.
