PenStranding

Royalty calculator

What KDP pays you per sale in each marketplace, for print and ebooks.

For a paperback or hardcover: the printing cost from the page count and trim, the lowest price KDP accepts, and your royalty at the price you choose, in each marketplace that prints it. For an ebook: whether your price earns 35% or 70%, the delivery cost and your royalty.

The figures follow KDP's help pages as of 17 October 2026. Check the final figure in KDP's own calculator before you publish.

On every plan, the Free plan included.
