Sell ebooks online
without the publisher’s cut.
You don’t need a publisher or a print run. Take the book you wrote, put a price on it, and share one link. The store page, the checkout, and instant delivery come with it.
The walkthrough
From what you know to your first sale.
- 1
Shape the book
Start from the one problem your reader wants solved and outline chapters backward from that outcome. Add a worksheet or checklist per chapter so the book does something, not just says something.
- A clean, well-structured PDF (and an EPUB if you can export one)
- A cover that still reads at thumbnail size
- Worksheets, checklists, or templates as a bonus
- Chapters with clear takeaways, not walls of text
- 2
Price it by outcome
A short problem-solving guide sells for $9; a complete ebook with worksheets sits near $19; a book plus a template toolkit goes $39. Readers pay for the result, so name it plainly on the cover.

Sell where readers already are
Ebooks move through your email list, X threads, niche subreddits, Pinterest, and BookTok. Give away one strong chapter or checklist free. It does more selling than any ad.

The math
What you actually keep.
MKKT takes 10%of each sale. Card processing is charged separately by the payment processor, and it is the only other cost. Here’s a $19 ebook, start to finish.
10 sales / month
$162.50
you keep, after fees
50 sales / month
$812.50
you keep, after fees
Illustrative, on a single $19.00 sale. The exact processing rate depends on the card and country; international, currency-conversion, and tax fees vary. Nothing here is a promise of sales volume.
On a $19 ebook
Card processing is estimated here at a typical US card rate (2.9% + $0.30) and is charged by the payment processor, not by MKKT. MKKT’s 10% is the only platform fee, and it is charged only when a sale happens.
FAQ
Questions, answered straight.
- What format should I sell my ebook in?
- PDF is the safe default. It looks the same on every device and needs no reader app. Add an EPUB if you can export one for people who read on Kindle or a phone. MKKT delivers whatever files you upload automatically after payment.
- How much can I charge for an ebook?
- Short guides sell for $7 to $15, full ebooks for $17 to $29, and book-plus-toolkit bundles for $35+. A specific, outcome-driven title ("Land your first freelance client") justifies a higher price than a broad one.
- Do I need to have already written it?
- You write the book; MKKT sells it. Export it as a PDF or EPUB, upload it, add a cover and a price, and it is on sale on your own link in one sitting.
