How do I set or change my book's price?
Set your list price per book in its settings; stores apply it on their schedule. Choose a genre-appropriate price. Here's how pricing works.

You set a list price for each book, and Chiify passes it to your stores.
How to set it
- Open the book and enter your price (in your base currency; stores convert for local markets).
- Save and submit. Stores apply the price on their own schedule.
- To change it later, edit the price and resubmit — see making changes to a published book.
Choosing a price
- Match your genre. Look at comparable titles; readers have price expectations.
- Ebook vs print are separate prices — print must cover printing costs.
- Series strategy: consider a low or free book 1 to pull readers in.
Temporary discounts
For a sale, use the price promotion tool rather than manually editing back and forth — it schedules the start and end for you.
Your earnings depend on price and the store's rate — see how much will I earn.
