One upload, every ebook store
Draft2Digital distributes to the same range of stores for a one-time $20 instead of an annual fee, taking a percentage of each sale rather than charging upfront.
Ebook distribution with no cut of royalties
PublishDrive also distributes wide and takes no cut of royalties, with a free tier before a $13.99 plan, the closest match to StreetLib's own pitch.
Self-publish to Kindle and keep 70 percent
Amazon KDP publishes to Kindle alone and costs nothing upfront, keeping 70 percent per sale instead of paying StreetLib's annual fee for stores beyond it.
