Who sets the list price for my audiobook?

Who sets the list price for my audiobook?

You set pricing and we pay based on that list price for sales through most of our distribution partners. You can update your list price at any time and we'll ensure all retailers are current with the price you set.

The retailer does get to choose the final price to the consumer, but this won't affect your payout for most partners.

Please note that Audible and Downpour set their own prices and pay out based on net receipts (review Schedule C of your distribution for more details).
