Publica is ideal for publishers, newspapers, magazines, university libraries, companies, independent authors and influencers, among media professionals. We have multiple products that fit the needs of those who want to share their content or acquire it from third parties.

There is no need to install anything to create your own digital content store. It is also not necessary to have technical knowledge. Your readers will not have to download any program to enjoy your content. Users can consume your content instantly.

Your users can access your content from any device, whether a computer, a mobile phone or tablet with Android or iOS. Publica is compatible with all browsers.

Publica provides sophisticated, powerful user analytics. You can track which digital content your users read, the devices they use to access your content, their country of origin, and how long they stay on the platform. You can also connect your Facebook and Google pixels for more information.

Yes, you can brand your store with your own look & feel. You can also customize the URL, or redirect the store to your own domain.

Publica allows clients to offer their content directly, without needing to go through an external company. Instead of offering content as DRM, Publica’s robust platform offers streaming via an enriched and secure interactive platform.

Publica is the first cloud-based platform that allows you to create your own digital content store, customize it as desired and provide your content directly to your users.

You can upload your content in PDF, EPUB and MP3 formats.

No, just upload your original PDF, EPUB, or MP3 file (the same one used for publishing or printing), and Publica will automatically transform it into a rich digital streaming edition.

DRM is vulnerable to piracy and file corruption, among other undesirable issues. This is because users have to install internal programs and cannot instantly access your content. With Publica, your content is protected with streaming technology (just like Netflix or Spotify) and your reader never interacts directly with the original files. At the same time, users will not have to download any special programs or do anything extra to enjoy your content.

Your content is hosted on Amazon AWS servers (the cloud platform preferred by streaming giants Spotify and Netflix). All stores are SSL-certified. Every communication between the application and the user is encrypted. Also, because users stream rather than download your content, your files are secure.

Anyone uploading content shall be responsible for acquiring the corresponding rights for its reproduction and use. To avoid disputes, we recommend consulting contractual clauses in advance.

Publica's commitment to content producers is not to mediate their business. You have the option to sell your content directly, without intermediaries. Publica also offers community support, with instructional webinars, success stories and other resources, so you can improve your digital content sales campaigns.

You can sell through individual sales or subscriptions, either a specific content or customized collections. With Publica, it’s your decision.

Publica works with any currency.

There is no limit to the number of users who can simultaneously login to your content, unless configured with a specific limitation.

With Publica you decide how users access your content. You can sell your content individually, through subscription, via your institution’s virtual store – or even offer it for free.

No, there is no limit on users or sales.

You can find out the exact amount of royalties due to you by accessing the Sales feature through your account’s control panel. There you will find a summary of every transaction conducted in your digital content store.

Yes, it is possible to access without an Internet connection. With the Publica Unlimited plan, you can work with our staff to develop a customized app so that your readers can also consume your digital content offline.

Having your own content store on Publica will not affect your sales in Amazon, Google or other retailers. On the contrary, it will give your content a higher web positioning, establish a more direct relationship with your users and, most importantly, allow you to merge several business models.

Selling content in digital format is environmentally sustainable, forges a direct relationship with your users, allows for better direct marketing, and provides more flexibility in negotiations with your clients, due to lower fixed costs.

No, it will not. Publica has no exclusivity conditions, allowing you to continue growing.

No, the growth and marketing of each store is the responsibility of the customer. The platform offers several tools to help you promote your content, such as sending emails directly to your users. From Publica, we recommend and share best practices to help you generate as much traffic as possible.

Yes, our sales agents are experts in digital publishing, commercialization and sales. What’s more, Publica offers webinars, shares industry success stories, and provides useful blog content to help you keep learning and growing.

No, of course not! Selling your digital content will not diminish the sales of physical editions. On the contrary, it may enhance your distribution. Offering a digital complement to physical books or selling combos of "physical + digital" is the most effective way to get to know your readers and generate targeted content. Research shows that the overlap of print readers and those who prefer to read digitally is only 2%. Therefore, when you sell digitally, instead of replacing sales, you’re increasing them.

Yes, we have thousands of titles in our catalog, so you can choose the ones you prefer. Among the most relevant topics are architecture, education, business administration, technical skills, soft skills, and reading promotion.

No, the license model we use is Pay-Per-Use (PPU), meaning that users are charged when they consume content. This system allows you to choose as many titles as you want from our catalog and make them available to your users, always keeping control of your budgets.
