They offer 2 payment options one can choose from and this can be by either a Direct deposit or by a US bank issued cheque.

If you are a writer with Amazon's digital publishing program or planning to self publish your book online in the future, one of the things you may want to know is how to get paid for your work. With Amazon, this comes really easy as they offer 2 payment options - Direct deposit and a US bank issued cheque.

One of the ways through which I make money online is by publishing my books on Amazon Kindle. Amazon has a program called Amazon Kindle Digital Publishing(KDP) which allows content authors to make money by publishing their works on Amazon Kindle's marketplace so that when Kindle users buy their works from Amazon, they earn a royalty income for the sale.

Although I've not made as much money as I have wanted to, success stories that I've read about it were what inspired me to sign up for a free account with them and I have to say that it's a good platform for writers most especially story book or novel writers to make money without doing any other work apart from just doing their writing. Just write once and sell many times on Amazon's digital publishing platform.

Amazon's KDP allows writers from all around the world to submit their manuscripts online, choose a price and be able to sell it to several Amazon markets around the world. They get to earn a great part of the sales their books made while Amazon keeps a a small commission for their service.

If you are in Africa for instance, you can get paid by a foreign US issued cheque of at least $100 which you can deposit into a foreign currency bank account. If you however do have a US bank account, you can also get directly paid into it automatically even if you earnings are less than $100.

I think Amazon's KDP would encourage a lot of people to write more books and be able to easily self publish it much faster. It would save the writers a lot of stress and time so that he will be able to focus more on creating high quality books.

Books distributed with Amazon's digital platform will be in electronic format and be available to people around the world and not just the USA.

Lots of people around the world have made a good effort at writing their books and keeping it in manuscript form but have not yet gotten that big publishing deal. Publishing it with Amazon's electronic platform is something that will help them go past all that and also write down their name in history.
