# How do I apply for contract?When uploading a book on our platform, you will need to register an account on our website first and then start uploading your book chapter by chapter. When you create a new book, the synopsis and book cover needs to be reviewed to make sure there's no infringement or anything inappropriate. The reviewing process normally takes a few working days. When we finish reviewing it, your book can be published and will be qualified to applying for contract.After you upload more than 15,000 words, you need to click the “Apply for contract” button which is on your personal page (Click your avatar) to submit your application. Then, the editors will review your book and decide whether we will sign a contract with you. #When I upload my book, it immediately says "in review" and won't publish, what does it mean?All newly uploaded books needs to be reviewed first in case there's any copyright

Payment MethodWe can pay you by PayPal, bank transfer, and Payoneer. Paypal is most recommended because you will receive payment soon after we send it out. For bank account payment, it may take some time before you can get it.Please fill in the payment information carefully, should the payment information be filled incorrectly, you will bear the risk of payment failure. If the payment fails, it will automatically be passed on to the following month; if it’s successful but made to a wrong address due to false info, the payment will not be remade.It is recommended that you choose the appropriate payment method, and the transfer fee will be borne by you. (If you find that the amount you received is less than the amount you should get, this is probably because the transfer fee is deducted. Paypal has less transfer fee and that's also the reason why we recommend Paypal instead of a bank account.) Payment InfoYou can fill your pay
