2. Content

2.1 Service and Content

FeedARead.com provides Services for writers to publish and for readers to buy books, along with providing other services.

2.2. Submission of Content

Upon registering on the Site, the FeedARead system enables you to publish books or buy books and use other Site Content and functions. For those publishing a book, you provide us with all the required details and Content to set up your book in order to publish as outlined on the site when you click to publish your book from the Homepage or your account page. To publish your book you should submit your book correctly according to the Site submission and content guidelines outlined during the publishing set-up process, which includes agreeing to the publishing agreement displayed during the publishing set-up process before you publish, and, paying any applicable fees, for example, if you choose to use a paid-service cover design rather than a free cover design for your book. Our system will automatically create a pdf for you with embedded fonts, required by the printers for printing, if you upload a Word manuscript document.  We use adobe software, the world’s largest pdf creation software. In the rare event that the automated software is unable to create a pdf with embedded fonts for you from your Word document - for example because of unsual or copyrighted fonts in your manuscript or other reason - we will advise you how to create your own pdf manually with embedded fonts in Word which takes a minute for you to complete. You agree to create your own pdf in these circumstances so that printing can proceed. Once you have successfully published, you can use our other Services which include, for example, the option to list your book(s) for sale on FeedARead and in other bookseller sales channels. You grant to us a non-exclusive license, during the term of this Agreement to create a digitized version of the book Content or Source Files (usually your book manuscript and any cover images you wish to use) that you provide us in order for our printers to be able to facilitate the following: the publishing and printing of your book for book orders by you and customers; the distribution and selling your Book through FeedARead.com and other bookseller sales channels should you choose to sell through other bookseller sales channels.  We reserve the right to determine the portion of the back cover of any published book for placement of its ISBN and barcode so that your book can be sold to readers. You may order copies of your own book from us at the author discount price which is displayed to you before you choose to publish which may be updated over the course of time along with delivery costs. For example, your author discount price may change over time if printing costs change via our printers, who print hundreds of thousands of books annually. You can cancel your book agreement with us at any time as per 2.5 below by giving us notice.

If you are a customer buying a book, you agree to the terms of production and delivery outlined in this agreement and as posted on the Site during the ordering process including the terms listed there before you order for delivery. Returns of print on demand books (POD) books (the process whereby a book is printed for each book order received from a customer) or refunds for print on demand books are only applicable if the books are not of satisfactory quality. You accept whether a book’s print is of satisfactory quality is decided by our printers who are one of the world’s largest printer’s for print-on-demand books and printing in general.

Author Discount Prices
You may order copies of your own book from us at the author discount price which is displayed to you before you choose to publish which may be updated over the course of time along with delivery costs. For example, your author discount price may change over time if printing costs/postage/other change via our printers, who print hundreds of thousands of books annually. You can cancel your book agreement with us at any time as per 2.5 below by giving us notice.  Please note that no royalties are paid on author discount copies as the benefit of author discount copies is that authors can buy copies of their books at a lower price than readers.  By publishing with FeedARead you accept that should we overpay you or pay you royalties or any payment which is not due to you and shouldn't have been paid to you, for example for author discount copies as above if a payment was made to you in error for them, that a minus figure may show on your account in respect of any payment/overpayment we sent to you which should not have been made.  That figure will reflect the overpayment we made to you, or payment we made to you when a payment was not due, and you accept that further sales you make will be detracted from that minus/negative figure until the overpayment we made to you, or payment we made to you which wasn't due, is balanced out.

Hardback Service Terms and Conditions

1.   It usually takes approximately 6 to 7 weeks to prepare a hardback for print, occasionally it may take a little longer depending on the individual cover and the book production workload of the system at the time.  

2. Hardback service prices and author discount prices are as listed on the site for author and reader orders, hardbacks have higher production costs than paperbacks. Prices usually remain stable, you accept that over time production and retail prices may change to reflect changes in print costs, average market prices or other market considerations as we deem necessary.  

3.  Hardback covers have considerably different print requirements from paperback. If for any reason it isn’t possible for your cover to meet hardback print requirements for hardback we will refund your payment after we have assessed your cover’s suitability.

4. Front cover and back cover images may wrap slightly around onto inside flaps of cover, this is to negate the slight trim fluctuation common in printing and avoids the  inside flap colour encroaching onto front or back cover

5. Hardback covers are based on paperback covers so do not have text on the hardback inside flaps.

3. Publishing Payments to You

3.1 Royalties

When you set-up your book for publishing on the Site you set the royalty payments you will receive for each book sale you make before you submit your book to us for publishing. To start publishing you should go to the FeedARead Homepage and click the button to begin publishing. During the publishing process, you will provide your book content and information about your book correctly according to our submission guidelines so that your book may be published. Before you publish you will also set yourself the net royalty you will receive for each copy sold of your book.

Please note that by publishing with FeedARead you accept that our book pricing and royalties can change over time. For example, the printers at periods increase their printing price fees and postage fees, for example as the cost of materials increases, which affects book pricing and royalties. Further other booksellers at times increase the amount of the sale price they require in return for selling a book.   

By publishing with FeedARead.com you accept accordingly that book prices can be changed by us at times,  and by publishing with FeedARead you also accept that royalty payment amounts for your book(s) can be changed or lowered as a result of their being less profit for book sale(s) due to the above outlined factors such as the printers increasing the print prices at times.  By publishing with FeedARead.com you accordingly agree that the above is part of our publishing process and agree to accept any price changes to your book(s) made by us, and you agree to accept royalty changes for your books that may occur at times, and agree not to take any legal or other action against FeedARead or any of our affiliates to ask for any different pricing or different royalties/former royalties or other sums of money, compensation or other financial or any type of recompense if either pricing and royalties are changed by FeedARead at times for your book(s).  We endeavor to maintain regular pricing and royalties as far as we can but we are subject as above to changes over time as per the examples above, including printers increasing their charges and print fees.


The price the customer pays for your book will be based on: the book’s manufacturing cost per copy; our service fee - which you will see in the publishing processes when you set your net royalty; and the net royalty that you set for each book sale before publishing. The book royalties we enable you to set are currently better than the two largest print-on-demand publishers for book prices set for sales through the publishers’ sites direct, and through bookseller distribution channels. FeedARead also enables higher royalties than the norm for the largest mainstream publishers in the industry. Publishing Payments to you will be paid every 6 months during our two annual royalty accounting periods. If you wish to check the royalty you have previously set per book sale at any point, you should view this from your Author Account page on FeedARead where this information will be viewable. It is your responsibility to acquaint yourself with the royalty viewing functions on your Author Account page. It is also your responsibility to keep your contact information up to date in order for payments to be made to you, and we shall not be at default with any regard to not being being able to contact you with regard to payments if you do not do this. If you choose to instruct a third party to set up your book on the Site and publish on your behalf it is your responsibility to ensure that you view the royalty details for your book and publishing agreement during the publishing process, and by your authorising a third party to set up your book you accept that you are are bound by the publishing agreement in full. You also accept that the site will pay royalties to the paypal address added for your book, and that if this is the paypal address of the third party who you chose to set up your book as added by the third party, or other paypal address added by the third party, you accept that any payment made to that address will be regarded as payment made in full, and any subsequents issues relating to this will be solely between you and the third party that you chose to set up your book on the Site.    Royalty payments will be made to you twice yearly at the six-monthly periods listed in the publishing agreement, and the publishing agreement is displayed during the publishing process before you choose to publish.

3.2 Returns

We cannot provided refunds to customers because of book content issues, including, but not limited to, due to grammatical or format errors, or spelling errors in eBook or printed books, or in story or other book content. This is because we enable users to self-publish and authors prepare, approve and are responsible for the Content of each item they publish or sell through us. You can peruse sample chapters of our authors’ and other books; if authors or their representatives have uploaded these, and should be aware that sample chapters may not be an indicator of the overall quality of the complete book that you purchase, and that the entertainment and other reading value of books may vary as with all books. Our staff does not monitor and does not assume responsibility for checking individual Content prior to publication through our Site given the amount of content we publish and as authors are fully responsible for preparing, checking and proofing their own manuscripts and book Content. By purchasing an ebook or printed book you are aware that these conditions apply and that refunds are not provided for reasons relating to authors’ book content as authors prepare and proof their own book content. We cannot govern and are not responsible for the Content provided given the nature of authors proofing and preparing their own Content. By using the site and its Services, you agree that Authors and not us are responsible for Author Content, and accept that we are not responsible for any acts or omissions of users on the Site with regard to Content displayed or listed on the Site.

Any books you buy through third party bookseller sites, for example, Amazon or other booksellers, will be subject to their conditions of use and sale. You accept that we shall not be responsible for their own terms as they are separate companies. You should view their sites for their own terms and conditions and any guarantees of purchase. You should also contact or look at the help pages of any third-party seller to determine their policy on purchase issues.

4. Customer Refunds

Our printers print and arrange delivery of hundreds of thousands of books annually and are one of the world’s largest printer’s for print-on-demand (POD) books and printing in general. It they or we refund a customer book order due to, for example, an order being damaged or lost in transit, and the order is not replaced, for example at the customer request, then if you are of the author of the book we may offset the amount of the payment we previously paid you for that returned book against future royalty payments, or we may require you to remit to us the amount of the royalty payment we paid to you for the books which were refunded.

You should take all necessary steps to ensure your password is kept confidential and secure and should not disclose it to any other person, with the exception of third parties you authorize to access your account. If you have any reason to believe that your password has become known to anyone else, or if your account or password is being used or is likely to be used in an unauthorized manner, you should change your password from your user account page, this is your responsibility.

15. Book Orders and Brexit  Please note that if you order via non-tracked mail to an EU country that post-Brexit the recipient address will usually be charged an import fee in order for the delivery to be released to the recipient address, this fee varies per weight and country and is not included in your order payment on the book order page on our site. You accept as the orderer of a book the responsibility for checking any applicable import and/or export fee to a applicable delivery country, for informing the recipient of same, and that book orders are not refundable by FeedARead should the recipient address not pay any applicable import charge and that the order cannot be redelivered elsewhere or returned. Please be aware of this if you are ordering to an EU country that FeedARead is not liable for the Import charge, and that the recipient, be it you as the orderer or if a different person is the recipient, will be required to pay the additional Import fee post-Brexit if the recipient wants the book order released to them.  You agree and accept by ordering that these order conditions apply and that FeedARead is not liable should the recipient for an order not make payment of an applicable import and/or export fee, and that FeedARead is not liable for any other payments, refunds or other payments related to either an Import, Export or other fee not being made by the recipient or orderer of book(s) or other applicable persons/company entities in order to release the book order.
