Publish to Apple Books

You keep your Apple account and your royalties. We handle the delivery — the package Apple requires, the metadata, the 51 territory prices, the validation and the upload.


A delivery service, not a publisher

You remain the publisher of record. Your books go to your own Apple account, under your own Apple provider, and Apple pays you directly — we never take a share of your royalties and never appear between you and Apple's payments. We do not review, edit or endorse what you send. You need an App Store Connect account of your own; everything between that account and a live Apple Books listing is what this service is.

Every plan is the same pipeline

What changes is how many books a month, and what each delivery costs you. Nothing is held back on the smaller plans — the validation, the gates and the full delivery log are identical on all of them.

Your key is never stored, on any plan

Apple requires an App Store Connect key. You upload it for one delivery; it lives in that delivery's own temporary working directory and is destroyed when the delivery ends. We keep only a SHA-256 fingerprint — enough to know which credential did what, and useless as a credential. There is no key store here to breach.

Only successful deliveries count

A delivery that fails is refunded, and one our own checks refused before contacting Apple was never charged. Validating a book with a dry run never costs a delivery — uncapped on every paid plan, and 25 a day on the free pass. An allowance is spent on books that actually reach Apple.

More than 800 a month? Unlimited, by arrangement

Above the Press plan the constraint stops being commercial and becomes physical: uploads to Apple run one at a time across the whole service. We would rather agree a throughput we can hold than sell you a number on a page. Tell us your volume, whether it is a backlist migration or an ongoing list, and whether you have one Apple account or several — we reply personally.
