Why sell e-books and audiobooks in your own app
When you sell through big marketplaces, you share every sale and never learn who your readers are. Your own app changes that. Readers sign up with you, buy from you, and hear about your next book from you.
Loopse gives publishers, authors, educators and audio producers a complete book service with their own name on it: a website on their own domain, apps for phones and tablets, and a studio to manage the catalogue.
A white label audiobook platform with e-books built in
- E-books: upload EPUB or PDF files. Readers open them in the reader on your website and in your apps.
- Audiobooks: upload the audio with chapters. Listeners skip between chapters and can download for offline listening when you allow it.
- Captions: turn on automatic captions and Whisper AI writes them after upload, then translates them into the languages you choose. You can always edit or upload your own.
- Release dates: set a release date and the book shows in a Coming soon row with a countdown and "Notify me".
- Found on Google: each book gets a search-friendly page with structured data for books.
Video, music, live events and courses can sit in the same service, so an author can sell a book, an audiobook and a video course from one app.
How you earn
- Sales: sell a book to own. You decide whether buyers can download the original file or only read and listen in your apps.
- Rentals: set a price and how many days the rental lasts.
- Subscriptions: monthly or yearly plans, with free trials and promo codes. A plan can unlock everything, one section, or chosen titles.
- In-app purchases through Apple and Google in your iPhone and Android apps.
You can sell in more than one currency, and set country rules per offer. Money goes into your own Stripe or Braintree account, and Loopse takes no cut of your sales.
Know your readers
Analytics show how many people read and listen, hours spent, completion, countries and devices, per title and for any date range, with revenue by plan and country. Newsletters go out from your own mail service, and push notifications reach readers who use your app, so a new release never goes unnoticed. Readers can rate books, add them to their watchlist and comment, with moderation you control.
