Helping you make the right decision.
Our flexible and unconventional approach allows us to tailor our solutions to your individual needs.
Word Counts & Price Tiers
Word Count
At PublishMe, we’ve made it easier than ever for self-published authors to translate their books by offering a clear and straightforward pricing structure. Instead of charging per word, we bundle word counts into fixed price tiers, giving you both transparency and flexibility to plan your budget accordingly.
We categorize manuscripts into word count ranges, allowing us to provide a fixed price for each tier. This ensures that you know exactly how much your translation will cost upfront—no surprises, no hidden fees.
While paying in one lump sum will save you 15-20%, we know that not everyone has that kind of cash flow upfront.
That’s why we offer a 12-month payment plan that allows you to spread the cost of your translation over a year, making it easier to manage your finances while you expand your readership into new markets.


Publishing Services
As a self-published author, managing your books, marketing, and engaging with readers is already a lot. Expanding into foreign markets with language barriers and cultural differences can feel overwhelming.
That’s where PublishMe comes in.
We offer part-financed translation and publishing services, letting authors translate their books at cost price. From there, we handle everything—publishing your book on platforms like Amazon, Apple Books, and Kobo, and marketing it to the right audiences.
With no upfront marketing costs, you can focus on writing while we take care of translating, publishing, and marketing in global markets. PublishMe makes it easy for self-published authors to go global.
Multiple Languages
We focus on key Central European languages and the English-speaking world, offering translations in five main languages:
German, French, Italian, Spanish, and English—in any combination you need.
And if you're eyeing any other languages or emerging markets, just let us know. We’re always here to help with additional language pairs!

At PublishMe we have several processes in place, to ensure translation quality.
Skilled Translators: We only use translators with extensive knowledge of both the source and target languages and cultures. To ensure accuracy and consistency in the translation, our translators are also required to be knowledgeable regarding the subject matter being translated.
Training and Development Initiatives: To keep our linguists abreast of the most recent language and translation trends as well as any changes in the client’s requirements, we offer ongoing training and development initiatives.
Quality Control: At Transcre8 we have a number of rigorous quality control procedures in place to guarantee that the translations are correct and satisfy the client’s needs. This involves editing, proofreading, and numerous iterations of review by our experienced linguists.
Usage of Translation Memory (TM) Tools: In order to ensure consistency in our translations, we continuously build upon our internal style guides. To this end, we employ, where appropriate, advanced TM -tools. These style guides are adapted to each individual client and project and ensure vocabulary and stylistic uniformity.
Checklists for Quality Control: These are used to make sure that all necessary processes have been followed to guarantee the accuracy of the translation. Before the translation is provided to the client, we review the content once more to help eliminate any mistakes or omissions.
Client Interaction: Our dedicated project managers are in constant contact with our clients to address any issues that may come up during the translation process. This helps to make sure that the translation faithfully matches the needs and specifications of the client.
Whilst we use TM-technology, and CAT-tools where appropriate, as is industry standard, all of our translations are done 100% by human translators, proofread by our skilled linguists, and undergo a rigorous quality assurance process, before being delivered to our clients.
We work with the author and our teams to establish a clear timeline for the translation of your book(s). The exact time depends heavily on the volume of words for each book, but for a 50,000-70,000 word book we usually estimate about 6 weeks to completion from the moment, the manuscript is received by our team.
We use a standard translation contract. Copyright remains with the author at all times.
Yes, the contracts allow us to use excerpts of the books for marketing services related directly to the book(s) or to our services. In certain cases, that may be limited to the content of the reading sample.
We are here to help you get the most out of your books. If you choose not to continue a series, we will simply require payment for the work that has already been completed by then.
No, there are no hidden costs. The quoted price is the price you pay.
For the one-time payment, we require a 30% downpayment upon signing the contract, with the remainder to be paid upon delivery of the manuscript.
For the 12-month payment plan, we require the first payment upon signing of the contract, with each subsequent payment due by the 15th of each month.
Any late payments incur a 10% penalty fee calculated based on the outstanding amount of that particular month.
We can assist in changing the book covers if necessary. To do this, we would require the PSD files. In most cases, we simply supply the content for the cover in the target language, and our authors use their existing designers for any changes.
Yes, we do offer support with book marketing. For more information, speak to our team.

Not only is this service significantly cheaper, but we also take care of all the marketing for you, pegging our profit to the success of your book(s).
We believe in collaborative work and we do involve you in key decisions such as launch strategy, pricing, promotions etc.
