Flexible Agreement Options
You are in control of student pricing.
As your distribution partner, RedShelf sells directly to students or to institutions on your behalf. For each piece of content sold on the RedShelf platform, the publisher nets the majority of the sale amount, and RedShelf earns percentage of the sale. You decide how student pricing is determined by choosing one of our two contract options:
Wholesale
You determine a publisher price, and RedShelf adds a margin that is charged to the end user.
​Agency
You determine a student price, and RedShelf earns a percentage of that price.
Multiple Content Types
No matter what type of digital content you offer, the RedShelf platform handles it.
eBooks
Digital books that are accessed through our eReader. We accept both EPUBs and PDF source files.
Courseware
Students access your courseware via RedShelf either through code reveal or through a codeless integration with the institution’s LMS.
Bundles
​
Users can purchase both the eBook and an access code for your coded courseware in a single transaction.
