Key Points:
- We set certain quality standards for all articles published in our basket. It makes sense to keep performance and prices in balance. This is where we differ significantly from others.
- Items in our basket can be published for a donation. Authors and artists can provide us with a link for this, which we then forward to the customer. Example: PayPal.
- Time is also a very important factor. For this reason, we ask all applicants to tell us something about themselves and their book concepts.
- After we have gained an impression of the quality of the books or works of art, we decide on the release of our services and the inclusion of the applicant and his or her works.
- In case of rejection, you can adapt your works to our quality requirements. You don't have to have covers created by artdesign88. But keep in mind that we do not publish 1:1 copies from the Internet, should we be aware of this!
- We have books and graphics printed. Through good relationships, we enjoy better prices than you. These printers are based in Europe. In the case of a print order, all goods will be sent to you. If you have published items in our basket, you can send the goods to the customer. A customer order will be sent to you immediately. Ask us about this.
- Since we offer almost exclusively free services, we are encouraged to donate. The services we provide are high-performance and a great enrichment for you.
Your privacy is important to us. We do not use any 3th party marketing addons. We keep documents, books, templates, etc. protected from unauthorized access. Authors can make use of our offer. Soon we will open a portal for reading rounds, where authors can post and promote their books in different languages. Check the Culture Hotel.

We provide each author a page on our website.
This can be designed by the author himself in cooperation with us. This service is free of charge!

- You send us texts, images and links that you would like to have placed on your site.

Examples: https://artdesign88.org/carla-mayers; https://artdesign88.net/carla-mayers; https://artdesign88.org/ben-king; https://artdesign88.net/de/brigitte-falk etc. You can create your page in different languages.

We would be delighted if you would host your books on our pages. You benefit from 90% of the net price of the book sale. Amounts from book sales to authors are always paid out on the following Monday after receipt of payment. For our writers, this means that they don't have to wait weeks or even months for their payouts, as is often the case elsewhere. We are friends of authors and are therefore actively committed to culture and the written word.
