How does the bonus token promotion work for a book?

2 min. readlast update: 03.28.2025

The bonus book system lets you add a bonus to any book each time you list it in the library. It's a great way to promote your work, speed up review turnaround times, and utilize extra tokens. Bonus tokens spent on a review request are non-refundable.

Here Is How It Works

First, be sure your book is not already published in the review library. If your book is published, you can unpublish it to add or adjust your bonuses.

  1. Ensure you have at least 100 tokens available to add to a book
  2. Enter the token value you would like to add for each review option you offer (leave the number set to 0 if you don't want to add a bonus)
  3. Publish the book to the review library

When a reviewer submits their review, they will receive the extra bonus tokens. If they received a bonus amount that was less than your maximum bonus, you will automatically be refunded the difference.

Earn more tokens and repeat as many times as you like for any of your books.

A Word of Caution: Before using bonus tokens, please carefully consider the value you place on each token and the potential impact of a high bonus token offer. If a reviewer accepts your request with a high bonus token offer, you are obligated to fulfill that offer, regardless of the content or quality of the review.
