Yes. Every paper can be published at no cost with full open access, Google Scholar meta tags, and a permanent URL. DOI and featured placement are optional paid add-ons.
When do I pay for DOI?
You select the add-on during submission and pay at the time of publishing. It's a one-time fee per paper.
How long does DOI assignment take?
Once you complete payment, we assign a CrossRef DOI to your paper within 2–5 business days.
Can I upgrade later?
Yes. You can add a DOI or featured placement to any existing paper at any time.
What if my paper is rejected?
We don't reject papers for quality — only for policy violations (plagiarism, illegal content). You'll receive a full refund if your paper is not published.
Do I keep the DOI forever?
Yes. Once assigned, the DOI is permanent and will always redirect to your paper.
