Help CenterUsing our new 3rd party review feature allows you to expand your book's reach beyond Amazon to platforms like Goodreads, Barnes and Noble, and Kobo. Follow these simple steps to set up your additional review requests.
Step 1: Provide Your Book URLs
Navigate to the book submission or edit page. You will see fields dedicated to the different 3rd party platforms. Paste the direct link to your book for each platform you wish to include.
Step 2: Validate Your Links
To ensure reviewers are sent to the correct page, our system must verify your URLs.
-
After pasting the link, the system will automatically attempt to validate it.
-
If it does not start automatically, or if you typed the link manually, click the Validate button next to the input field.
-
Wait for the confirmation message (e.g., "Validated") to appear for each platform.
Step 3: Review and Adjust Token Bonuses
Once your links are validated, you will see the token values assigned for each 3rd party review.
-
The Minimum: You must spend at least 25% of the base Amazon token value for each additional site.
-
Increase Your Odds: You have the option to increase these bonus values. Higher token rewards make it much more likely that a reviewer will take the extra time to post their review on these additional websites.
Step 4: Publish Your Book
After all your desired platforms are validated and you are happy with the token amounts, scroll down and click the Publish your book button.
What Happens Next?
-
Reviewer Choice: When a member checks out your book, they will see the option to leave reviews on the 3rd party sites you provided.
-
Token Security: If a reviewer chooses to only leave a review on Amazon and skips the 3rd party options, don't worry. You will automatically receive a refund of the tokens you set aside for those specific 3rd party requests.
By following these steps, you can start building a stronger, multi-platform presence for your book today.
