Getting Started
What is Afri KDP and how does it work?
Afri KDP is a digital publishing and marketplace platform built in Africa. You upload your PDF books, guides, or digital content, set your price, and we handle payments from buyers worldwide. When a sale is made, 85% goes directly to your wallet and you can withdraw instantly to your local bank, Mobile Money, or Crypto.
Is Afri KDP free to join?
Yes — completely free. There are no setup fees, no monthly subscriptions, and no withdrawal fees. We only make money when you make money — we take a flat 15% on each sale, and that's it.
How do I get started as a creator?
It takes less than 5 minutes. 1) Create your free account at afrikdp.com. 2) Set up your payout method (Bank, MoMo, or Crypto). 3) Upload your PDF and set your price. 4) Share your Google-indexed book link. That's it — you're live.
Can I publish from any country?
Yes. Afri KDP is built to be borderless. Creators from any country can publish and sell. Payout options vary by location — Nigerian creators can withdraw to local bank accounts directly, while creators in other regions can use Mobile Money (18 African countries) or Crypto (worldwide).
What types of content can I sell?
You can sell any digital content including PDF books, ebooks, guides, templates, educational materials, research documents, and creative writing. Content must be original work you own the rights to and must comply with our content policy. Categories include Business, Fiction, Education, Self-Help, Health, Tech, and more.
Payments & Payouts
How much do I earn per sale?
You keep 85% of every sale, always. If you price your book at ₦10,000, exactly ₦8,500 is credited to your wallet the moment the sale is confirmed. The 15% platform fee covers all payment processing (Paystack fees included), secure file storage (Cloudflare R2), and platform maintenance. No hidden deductions.
How do I withdraw my earnings?
Log in to your dashboard, go to your Wallet, and click "Withdraw." You can withdraw to your Nigerian bank account (GTBank, Opay, Wema, etc.), Mobile Money across 18 African countries, or Crypto (BTC or USDT) anywhere in the world. The minimum withdrawal is ₦100.
How long does a withdrawal take?
Withdrawals are processed instantly via Paystack Transfers. Occasionally, bank network delays may push the transfer time to up to 24 hours, but this is rare. You will not be charged any withdrawal fees — we cover the standard local transfer cost.
What payment methods can my buyers use?
Buyers can pay using Nigerian Debit/Credit Cards, Bank Transfers, USSD, Opay/Palmpay balances for local payments, and Visa/Mastercard for international buyers in the US, UK, Europe, and beyond.
Do I need to verify my identity to get paid?
Yes. To comply with Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations, you must verify your identity before withdrawing. You'll need to provide a valid BVN (Bank Verification Number) or NIN (National Identity Number). Your profile name must match your bank account name.
What happens if a buyer requests a refund or chargeback?
If a buyer successfully disputes a charge with their bank, the disputed amount may be deducted from your wallet balance. If your wallet balance is zero at the time, it may result in a negative balance that will be offset by future sales. We have fraud prevention systems in place to minimize this risk.
Publishing & Books
What file formats are supported?
Currently, Afri KDP supports PDF files — the universal format for digital books and documents. PDF ensures your formatting is preserved exactly as you designed it across all devices. Support for additional formats is planned for future updates.
How many books can I publish?
Unlimited uploads at no extra cost. Publish as many books, guides, or digital products as you want. There's no limit on your catalog size.
What pricing options do I have?
You have full control over your pricing. Choose from three models: Fixed Price (you set the exact amount), Free (give it away to build your audience), or Pay What You Want (buyers choose their price — great for building trust and maximizing reach).
Will my book be found on Google?
Yes. Every book published on Afri KDP gets a permanent, Google-indexed URL. This means your book page can appear in Google search results, helping buyers discover your work organically over time. The more descriptive your book title and description, the better your search visibility.
Can I edit or delete my book after publishing?
Yes. You can update your book description, cover, price, or file at any time from your dashboard. If you delete a book, Afri KDP will stop selling it, but buyers who already purchased it will retain access to their downloaded copy.
Can I publish the same book on Amazon or other platforms?
Absolutely yes. Afri KDP grants only a non-exclusive license to distribute your work. You are free to publish the same book on Amazon KDP, Gumroad, Payhip, Selar, or any other platform simultaneously. We never lock your content to our platform.
Copyright & Ownership
Do I keep the copyright to my book?
100% yes. Afri KDP does not claim any ownership over your intellectual property. You are the sole author and copyright holder. We only receive a non-exclusive license to host, sell, and market your book on your behalf. You can revoke this at any time by removing your book.
What happens if someone uploads my book without permission?
We have a zero-tolerance policy for plagiarism and copyright infringement. If you find your work has been published without permission, email a formal takedown notice to support@afrikdp.com. We will immediately suspend the content, freeze associated wallet balances, and notify the uploader. Repeat infringers are permanently banned.
Can Afri KDP use my book cover for marketing?
By publishing on Afri KDP, you grant us permission to use your book cover, title, description, and author name for promotional and marketing purposes on our platform, social media, and other channels. This helps increase your book's visibility. Your actual book content is never shared publicly.
Affiliate Program
How does the affiliate program work?
Browse our library, generate a unique tracking link for any book, and share it with your audience. When someone buys through your link, you earn 35% commission instantly — credited directly to your Afri KDP wallet. You don't need to be an author to join. Anyone can be an affiliate.
How much commission do affiliates earn?
35% of every sale you generate. If you refer a buyer to a ₦10,000 book, you earn ₦3,500 instantly. There are no caps, no minimum payouts, and no limits on how many products you can promote.
How are affiliate sales tracked?
We use secure cookie tracking. When someone clicks your unique affiliate link, a tracking cookie is set in their browser. If they purchase within the tracking window, the sale is attributed to you automatically and your wallet is credited instantly.
Can I be both an author and an affiliate?
Yes, absolutely. Many creators on Afri KDP do both — they earn 85% from their own book sales and 35% commission promoting other creators' books. It's one of the best ways to maximize your income on the platform.
Account & Security
Is my money safe on Afri KDP?
Yes. All payments are processed by Paystack — Nigeria's most trusted and regulated payment infrastructure. Your earnings are held in a secure internal wallet and transferred via verified banking rails. We use encrypted transactions throughout. We recommend withdrawing your balance regularly rather than letting large amounts accumulate.
Can my account be suspended?
Accounts are only suspended for clear violations of our Author Agreement — such as uploading content you don't own, fraud, or illegal activity. We do not arbitrarily suspend accounts. Unlike some global platforms, we believe in giving creators fair treatment and notice before any action is taken.
How do I close my account?
You can close your account at any time by deleting your books from the platform and emailing support@afrikdp.com. Make sure to withdraw all wallet funds before closing. Once closed, Afri KDP will cease selling your work, though previous buyers retain access to their downloaded copies.
How do I contact support?
Email us at support@afrikdp.com or reach the founder directly at michael@afrikdp.com. We aim to respond to all queries within 24 hours. We are a real team — not bots.
For Buyers
How do I receive my book after purchase?
Delivery is instant and automatic. After a successful payment, you will receive a secure download link immediately. No waiting, no manual steps. Your purchase is accessible any time via your account.
Is it safe to buy on Afri KDP?
Yes. All transactions are processed securely through Paystack, encrypted end-to-end. We never store your card details. If you experience any issue with a purchase, contact us at support@afrikdp.com and we will resolve it promptly.
Can I get a refund?
Because digital products are delivered instantly and cannot be "returned," all sales are generally final. However, if you purchased a product that was significantly misrepresented or you experienced a technical delivery failure, contact us at support@afrikdp.com and we will review your case fairly.
