Put Your Romance ARC in Front of
Readers Who Crave It

Credits are a one-time purchase where each credit lets you run one ARC campaign. The monthly subscription gives you unlimited campaigns for as long as you're subscribed. If you release books frequently, the subscription offers better value. If you only release occasionally, pay-as-you-go credits might work better for you.

No, you don't need to! With an active subscription, you have unlimited campaigns. If you cancel your subscription, you can then purchase credits as needed.

Your credits remain in your account. While you have an active subscription, you won't need to use them. If you cancel your subscription later, you can use any remaining credits.

No, ARC credits do not expire. Once you purchase them, they are saved to your account indefinitely, so you can use them whenever you're ready to start a new ARC.

Yes! You can cancel your monthly subscription at any time. You'll continue to have access until the end of your current billing period. There are no cancellation fees or penalties.

An ARC credit enables you to start a new ARC campaign for your book. Once you've used a credit, you gain access to all the tools to manage your ARC, track readers, acquire reviews, and communicate directly with your community of readers.

The timeline for your ARC is entirely flexible and up to you. You can choose to open applications for your ARC for as long as you need—whether that's a few weeks, several months, or even longer. You can also pause and restart the ARC process as necessary.

There's no limit! Whether you purchase a credit or have a subscription, you can accept as many readers as you want for each ARC campaign. The more readers, the more potential reviews.

If a refund or dispute is issued for single-purchase ARC credits or a subscription, access to the associated credits or subscription will be revoked immediately. ARC campaigns that have already started may be deleted, and no credits will be refunded for campaigns in progress. Users must contact Stripe for disputes or refunds, and Pen Pinery will update account access accordingly. Drafts created during a subscription that were never published before the subscription ends will expire. To publish that project, you’ll need to purchase a new ARC credit and create a new project.

No. An ARC credit lets you list your book and connect with readers, but we do not guarantee any specific number of reviews, downloads, exposure, or sales.* Success depends on your book’s quality, marketing, and how you engage your audience. Metrics shown on the platform are informational only and not promises of results.

You can set up your campaign details in advance, but readers won’t be able to apply until your ARC file (EPUB, PDF, DOCX, etc.) is uploaded and an ARC end date is set.
