Geegpay takes $1.5 or more for each payment I receive from kdp. Kdp pays me different payments for each marketplace. Let's say I earn in four different countries, then Geegpay gets at least $6 from my royalties each month. Even with this, geegpay is still better than payoneer. However, I am still looking for a better alternative to geegpay. |

My problem with geegpay now is that they suddenly asked for proof of address and other details. They won't let me even see my dashboard. This is annoying because previously I had used my NIN slip as proof of address and they accepted it. 1 Like 1 Share |

Earlier, I created a thread to expose how easy it is to fake kdp success using screenshots. But this did not stop people from believing the kdp gurus that fake success. https://ryanlanz.com/2019/07/21/the-average-earnings-of-authors/ By the above article, 80% of self-published authors earn less than $1k per year. That means they earn less than $100 per month. https://lowcontentprofits.com/how-much-can-you-earn-from-amazon-kdp/ The above article surveyed 86 authors. It found that 85% made less than $500 per month. Most kdp course-sellers make their money from selling kdp courses rather than kdp itself. They may actually have knowledge about kdp, but do not believe their earnings screenshot. Even after this thread, people would still believe fake screenshots and, most importantly, kdp gurus would continue selling courses. |

The5DME: Tips for nonfiction Choose a topic you understand. Read books on the topic. Develop an outline for a book. Write the manuscript on paper. Typeset the book. Edit. Proofread. Write frontmatter,bibliography and index. Publish. While writing your book, check other books on Amazon that are similar to yours. Use the look inside feature to see the TOC and layout of the books. The TOC tells you what topics similar books cover. From the books in your niche, you can get cover ideas and know how to price your book. The editing stage is the toughest. Read books that teach how to do editing. After learning how to edit, you can edit your books yourself. Of course, you can hire an editor but it is expensive. Even if you do hire an editor, you still need to self-edit before sending the manuscript to the editor. It could take months to publish just one book. But the book would stand the test of time. 2 Likes |

Geegpay has a better rate for dollar to naira conversion. Go to geegpay.africa and create an account. Verify with just nin. Also use nin as proof of address. You can withdraw below $50. Super fast withdrawal to local bank: less than 1 hour. Amazon kdp paid today. If you use payoneer's US virtual account, you would get poor rate of N440 per dollar. Your money would arrive next year. However if you use geegpay you get N719 per dollar. Your money would arrive in minutes. |

Have you published an ebook on Google play store? How did you remove the tax? |

Yesterday, I got an email that my kdp tax form is set to expire on new year's Eve, and I need to take the interview again. I logged in to the KDP site and retook the interview. Thank God it went smoothly. Still 0.0% witholding. I learnt today that you need to update the w8ben tax form every 3 years. Did anybody here get a similar email? |

Lol. Why not KDP? It seems someone made you hate it. It is a legit platform. |

Amazon KDP is a legit platform where you can earn money. Some people do it full-time and can live on their kdp royalties. You need to put in real work in it if you want to make money. |

All your sales are converted to USD and sent to your Payoneer virtual US account. You do not need different currency accounts. |

Do not buy a kdp course because of royalty screenshot. Please. It is very easy to create a fake screenshot. Even if the person videos his screen showing the royalty page, it may be fake. 1 Like

To prevent people from using these pics for scam, I will put hyphens in the royalties. For example, instead of $5000, I will write $5-0-0-0. The whole purpose of this thread is to show you how easy it is to fake kdp success. 3 Likes

I have been observing the kdp topics on nairaland for a while now. It consists mostly of people trying to sell kdp courses. They prove they are credible by showing you screenshots of their kdp royalties. However, it is very easy to fake these by using developer tools in a browser. As an example, I attach an image of "royalties" earned this month. You can edit everything in the kdp royalties page -- even the graph. If you want to learn kdp, there are many free resources online. Just Google. It will take hard work to start making real money from kdp. You have to take it seriously like a real job. 2 Likes

Most kdp royalty screenshots you see on nairaland are fake. Do not be deceived! |
