It changes every month and it differs by store. On Amazon.com it has stayed between roughly $0.0040 and $0.0050 a page for years — about $4 to $5 per 1,000 pages read. This calculator uses the most recent month Amazon has settled, for the store you pick, and shows the low and the high of the last twelve months beside it so you can see how much that figure moves.KDP Select Benefits — Aide Amazon KDP
Kindle Edition Normalized Pages. Because a Kindle page depends on the reader's font size and device, Amazon measures every book against one standard layout instead — KDP says KENPC is calculated using standard formatting settings such as font, line height and line spacing. So a KENP page is Amazon's unit, not your manuscript's, and it is the unit you are paid in.Royalties in Kindle Unlimited — Aide Amazon KDP
In KDP, open your Bookshelf and go to the book's Promote and Advertise page: Amazon lists it there as KENPC v3.0. That is the number to enter here. It is set by Amazon after your book goes live, so a brand-new title may not have one yet.Royalties in Kindle Unlimited — Aide Amazon KDP
No, and they are usually quite far apart, because KENPC is computed from a standard digital layout rather than from your print interior — trim size, font choice and spacing all change the printed count without changing the normalized one. Do not estimate it from your paperback: the only reliable figure is the KENPC Amazon shows you on the Promote and Advertise page.
Yes — you are paid for the pages actually read, not for the borrow. That cuts both ways: a reader who abandons a 400-page novel at chapter three earns you a few cents, and it is why the number that matters for a Kindle Unlimited title is pages read rather than borrows. Amazon also pays only for the first read: if the same customer reads your book again, those pages are not paid twice.Royalties in Kindle Unlimited — Aide Amazon KDP
Yes, and most calculators ignore it. KDP states that authors can earn a maximum of 3,000 KENP read per title per customer. For a book longer than that, a complete read-through does not pay your full page count — the pages past 3,000 earn nothing however far the reader goes. This calculator applies the ceiling and tells you when it has.Royalties in Kindle Unlimited — Aide Amazon KDP
Usually less, and that is the comparison worth making before you enrol a book in KDP Select. Enter your royalty per paid sale above and the calculator shows how many complete read-throughs it takes to match one sale. For a typical novel it is more than one — but a borrow is also a reader you would probably not have had, and a series read through to the end can be worth several sales.
Because it does not pay a rate — it divides a pot. Each month Amazon announces one figure, the total size of the KDP Select Global Fund, and splits it across every page read worldwide. The per-page rate is what falls out of that division, so it can only be known after the fact, and every rate quoted anywhere, including here, is derived by dividing Kindle Unlimited royalties by pages read.Royalties in Kindle Unlimited — Aide Amazon KDP
Amazon announces the fund around the 15th of the following month, so the current month's rate does not exist yet — anything published for it is somebody's estimate. This calculator deliberately uses the most recent SETTLED month instead and names it under the answer, rather than quietly multiplying by a guess at a moment when you might be setting an ad bid on it.Royalties Estimator — Aide Amazon KDP
No, and the gap is far bigger than most authors expect: converted into one currency, the same page read is worth several times as much in the best-paying store as in the worst. Each store pays in its own currency at its own rate, which is why the table on this page converts them all before comparing them — at the exchange rate from the last day of each month, so the same month always converts to the same number.
Usually because of where and when you were read. Each store pays its own rate, so an account selling across several countries earns a blend of them, and a date range covering several months blends those too. Amazon also pays bonuses to some titles, which lifts an account's effective rate above the market one. To check your own, divide your Kindle Unlimited royalties by your KENP pages read for one store and one month.Royalties Estimator — Aide Amazon KDP
It is free and there is nothing to sign up for. The rates are served from our own database — that is the part we can keep current — and every calculation runs on your device: your page count, your pages read and your royalty are never sent anywhere, and are remembered only in your own browser so you find them again next time.
