FAQ
Do you guarantee reviews?
No platform can honestly guarantee reviews, stars, or outcomes. We maximize completion with vetted readers, reminders, and a community that actually finishes books — without buying fake feedback.
Are AI-written books allowed?
Yes. We don't care how you created your book — we just care if it's good. Disclose AI assistance if you want; it's never a rejection reason on its own.
Stripe or PayPal?
Stripe is the live checkout. You’ll hop to Stripe’s secure page, pay, and land back on Review Besties with your ARC submitted. PayPal isn’t live yet.
What is the $2 reader fee?
On Promote, you pay $2 only when a Review Besties reader downloads your ARC. Self-invited readers from your own list are free. Cap readers anytime.
How does the Author plan work?
$100/year covers unlimited ARC listings for two pen names, with no per-reader fees and priority in group promos.
What about Partner?
$300/year covers unlimited ARC listings for up to 10 pen names. That's the top plan for now — no agency or imprint packages yet.
