THE PLATFORM FOR SELLING BOOKS DIRECT

Your bookstore. Your customers.
Your terms.

keyTABS is the platform for businesses that sell ebooks and audiobooks under their own brand. You own the storefront, the customer, and the data — not a shelf on someone else’s marketplace.

THE CASE

On other platforms, the store isn’t yours.

You publish on their terms. They cap your price. They keep the larger cut. And the reader who buys your book becomes their customer, not yours — you never see who they are or what else they’d buy.

keyTABS hands all of it back. Your store, your pricing, your margin, and a direct line to the people who buy from you. You bring the audience you’ve already built; keyTABS gives you somewhere to sell to it that you actually own.

Questions, answered

How is keyTABS different from a marketplace?

On a marketplace you don’t control your pricing, your margin, or your customer relationship. On keyTABS you own all three — under your own brand.

What can I sell?

Ebooks and audiobooks — as one-off purchases, subscriptions, or pre-orders.

Do I own my customer data?

Yes. Buyers are your customers — you keep full profiles, order history, and the direct relationship.

How does pricing work?

A subscription plus a per-sale fee. The fee falls from 25% on Starter to a custom rate on Enterprise, so you keep more as you scale. On Starter it’s reduced to 10% on your first $3,000 of sales each month. Standard payment-processing fees apply separately.

Is there a free trial?

There’s no free tier — keyTABS is a full business platform. Book a live demo and we’ll walk you through it on your own catalogue.
