About

ShelfPublisher is a web-based book publishing platform for authors with completed, print-ready paperbacks. After access is approved, authors buy a publishing slot for one book and upload an interior PDF and cover through the portal. Orbita Media reviews the files, assigns an ISBN from its own publisher block, publishes accepted titles under its imprint, registers book metadata with bibliographic directories, and arranges print-on-demand production and wholesale catalog distribution, reaching more than 50,000 bookstores in 18 countries. Authors retain copyright. Single-slot titles earn 30% of net revenue per copy sold; some subscriptions offer higher shares. Sales statements are issued quarterly. Each slot is valid for 36 months. The service requires no print run, inventory purchase, or separate ISBN fee.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The variety and number of different products offered is great. You can select from t-shirts to caps and much more. The quality of products is excellent with fast shipping times. It integrates easily with bigger platforms like Shopify.
  • They have good software to design products - limited product selection. They good models for mockup but prices don't justify it.
  • They have great product options and the print quality is the best I've seen in print on demand. Their mockup generator super easy to use and allows you to easily drag and drop images to update products. They've done a great job expanding to international markets, allowing you to sell in international markets at a reasonable rate for international shipping.

Cons

  • Sometimes, the shipping gets delayed and not received on expected delivery date. I think some products are overpriced. The prints may get faded with time.
  • The setup fees, the high product cost, the super high shipping costs. What profit? I would be paying customers to make a purchase. Changing POD now!
  • Their prices are a tad high per product as compared to other print on demand platforms, but it's worth paying a premium for the quality of their prints / products and ease of use.
