This initiative responds to recent trends in academic publishing where many journals, including high-impact ones, charge substantial publication fees from authors. We believe this creates barriers to publishing research and risks pushing academia toward vanity press models.
We support open access publishing as knowledge should be widely disseminated, but believe authors—not just publishers—should financially benefit from their work and never have to pay to publish. After all, what is more valuable than new knowledge?
We promote open access publication and dissemination of academic research across disciplines without publication fees for authors, while generating royalties through article viewership.
We believe in open article review by multiple peers and the public, and that an article's worth is appreciated over time through referencing by other academic articles and its viewership.
We aim to develop our peer review system and raise income for charitable causes and research grants.
Your name, username, password, institution, and email. For security, you can provide up to 3 emails. Your login email needs validation via a link sent to your address. This can differ from your author email, which will be publicly viewable if you publish an article. A third optional email is for PayPal if you want to receive monetization payments. When commenting on articles, you can do so anonymously as only your username will display.
We accept academic work from all subjects and eBooks from all genres, provided they're in English. For academic work, we accept preprints or preliminary reports that haven't undergone peer review. You can also republish work published elsewhere and still earn money, provided you still own the copyright and haven't transferred it to another publisher.
Preprints are preliminary reports that haven't been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Your article or eBook can be published under various licenses. You will always retain copyright. Options include Creative Commons licenses, no reuse/readaptation without permission, or placement in the public domain.
You can choose whether to monetize your work. If you do, a proportion of advertising revenue will be paid as commission via PayPal. For multi-author works, only the submitting author can claim monetization, but you'll need to arrange distribution of commissions with co-authors.

Revenue is generated by website advertisements, and a proportion is returned to the authors. The amount is based on the proportion of views that their article received divided by all article views within a calendar month. There is a three-month delay between the calculated month and the payout for that month.
No, this is optional but provides another way of getting your message across to a wider audience.
It depends on the journal, but in almost all cases no. Traditional publishers are recognizing the importance of pre-print servers in disseminating information and promoting article visibility and citations. Articles published on a pre-print service are more widely viewed and tend to receive a higher number of citations.
The article is checked for its scientific content and originality and verified to ensure it does not contain anything that could be deemed offensive, inflammatory, or illegal.
The process depends on specific guidelines set by Rnfinity. Authors will receive instructions regarding claiming their revenue based on their article's performance.
Note: Payments are typically processed quarterly, and you'll need to ensure your payment information is up to date in your account settings.
