Article Processing Fee (APF)
Presently, all our journals are fully open-access. Therefore, authors or funders of accepted manuscripts will make a one-time payment (OTP) for manuscript processing fees. This fee will cover all processing costs, including copyediting, production of publishable files, online publishing, and archiving of articles. Please note that the APF does not cover submission charges, as submission to our journals is free of cost. Taxes and other local expenses will be covered by the authors.
We recognize the World Bank’s classification of country income levels and offer a 50% and 40% discount on APF for articles whose the lead and corresponding author(s) are from Low Income (LIC) and Lower-middle-income countries (LMIC), respectively. The payable APFs by Glintplus journals are presented in the table below.
