Chiify keeps pricing simple: a free tier to start, and paid plans that take 0% commission.

The plans

  • Free — publish up to 3 books. Chiify takes a 10% cut of sales.
  • Starter — $15 once, up to 20 books, 0% commission.
  • Pro — $100 once, up to 100 books, 0% commission.
  • Lifetime — $300 once, up to 150 books, 0% commission forever.

What's free on every plan

  • EPUB conversion and validation.
  • A free ISBN if you need one — see getting an ISBN.
  • Distribution to 400+ stores and 50,000+ libraries.

Which plan?

  • Testing the waters? Start Free.
  • Selling steadily? A paid plan pays for itself fast because you stop losing 10% per sale — see Free vs paid.
  • Publishing for the long haul? Lifetime is the cheapest over time.

You can switch plans any time.
