It is still Day 1 for independent publishing. We’ll be in touch with more updates in the coming weeks. To learn more about the move and review the latest, visit here. Learn more about KDP’s printing fees here. If your titles are affected by this change, you will receive a separate email on this topic. In addition, some low-page count books will see an increase in printing fees when they are printed in the UK and EU. As a result, you’ll be paid in September for any royalties earned in August on CreateSpace and be paid in October for any royalties earned in August on KDP. CreateSpace pays monthly royalties 30 days after the end of the month in which they were earned while KDP pays monthly royalties approximately 60 days after the end of the month in which they were earned. Going forward you will be paid on KDP’s payment schedule. There are a few payment and printing fee differences associated with the move. During this transition, you can contact KDP customer support by email and access phone support in English. If you have a release planned soon or you would like to start the move yourself, we are making updates that will allow you to move your entire catalog in just a few steps. Once we begin this process you’ll be unable to edit existing titles or create new titles on CreateSpace. Your books will remain available for sale throughout the move and you’ll continue to earn royalties. In a few weeks, we’ll start automatically moving your CreateSpace books to KDP.
On KDP, your paperbacks will still be printed in the same facilities, on the same printers, and by the same people as they were on CreateSpace. These include the ability to purchase ads to promote paperbacks on and locally printed author copies in Europe.Īs a result of these enhancements to KDP and our ongoing efforts to provide a more seamless experience for managing your paperback and digital books, CreateSpace and KDP will become one service. KDP also offers features that aren’t available on CreateSpace. With these features, KDP’s paperback distribution will be on par with CreateSpace’s distribution. As a reminder, Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) now offers Expanded Distribution to sell your paperbacks to physical bookstores in the US, as well as the ability to sell your paperback books on Amazon.ca and ( Amazon.mx coming soon). To ensure a quality experience, we will add links to the CreateSpace member dashboard in phases so authors may see it at different times. We’re excited to announce that CreateSpace (CSP) and Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) will become one service, and in the coming days, we will give CreateSpace members the ability to move their account and titles. Amy Collins forwards this notice from CreateSpace and the KDP Print Team: Editor’s Note: We didn’t have to wait long for the subject of this post to appear in headlines.
