Indie authors pay you to read their books. Claim a copy, read at your own pace, and share your honest opinion. Payment is for your reading time, not for posting a specific rating anywhere.
iWrity is building the first transparent marketplace where authors pay readers directly for their time. Sign up for the waitlist today and be first in line when it goes live.
iWrity connects indie authors who need real readers with people who love discovering new books. No fake reviews, no spam. Just honest reads and honest pay.
Sign up free with your name, email, and favourite genres. When the paid feature launches, you get first pick of available books.
Browse books from indie authors worldwide. Every listing shows the bid amount upfront so you know exactly what you earn before you accept.
Share your honest opinion wherever you normally post reviews. Once your reading is confirmed, earnings land in your iWrity balance. Withdraw via PayPal once you hit $10.
Plenty of sites claim you can get paid to read books. Most pay pennies or nothing at all. Here is why iWrity is different.
Every book you review is yours to keep, ebook or otherwise. Discover indie authors before anyone else does.
Authors compete to attract the best reviewers by raising their bids. The more reviews you build up, the higher the bids that come your way.
Your reviews, genres, and track record are all visible to authors. Top reviewers become the most sought-after on the platform.
Unlike traditional freelance book reviewer jobs, iWrity does not require writing samples, a journalism degree, or a portfolio. If you can read and write a clear opinion, you qualify.
On iWrity, authors set the rate, typically between $5 and $25 per book depending on length and genre. Here is what realistic monthly earnings look like:
Estimates based on average bids. Actual earnings depend on bid amounts and review volume.
Yes. iWrity is a real platform connecting indie authors with readers. Authors pay for your reading time, not for a specific rating. You share your honest opinion and we confirm you read the book before releasing payment. No bots, no fake reviews, no scams.
Authors set their own rate per book, typically $5 to $25 depending on book length and genre. If you read 10 books a month at an average of $10 each, that is $100 extra per month. Not a full-time income, but real cash for something you would do anyway.
No. iWrity requires honest reviews only. If you did not enjoy the book, you can say so professionally. Authors accept this when they list. Writing fake five-star reviews violates Amazon policy and iWrity policy, and we enforce it.
The paid reading system is in active development and launching soon. Reviewers who join the waitlist now build their profile, get matched with free early reads, and receive priority access the moment paid bids go live.
Not at all. If you love reading and can share a clear, honest opinion, you qualify. Readers from all backgrounds are welcome.
All major genres including fiction, non-fiction, self-help, mystery, romance, history, fantasy, thriller, business, memoirs, and more. You set your genre preferences and only see books that match what you enjoy.
Most paid review sites pay pennies per book or require you to review books you have no interest in. iWrity lets you filter by genre and bid amount, requires honest opinions, and is building a real marketplace where authors compete for the best reviewers.
Yes. iWrity does not require a writing portfolio, journalism background, or prior reviewing history. If you read regularly and can express a clear opinion, you qualify. Your track record builds up naturally as you review more books on the platform.
Several platforms connect readers with books, including iWrity, Reedsy Discovery, and Online Book Club. iWrity is unique in building a real bid-per-review marketplace where authors set the payment themselves, rather than offering fixed low rates or gift cards.
Yes. Most books listed on iWrity are available as ebooks, meaning you can download, read, and review entirely online. No physical copy needed. You can start the same day you join the waitlist.
ARC stands for Advance Reader Copy, a pre-publication version of a book given to readers for an honest review. Traditional ARC programs like NetGalley give you the book free but do not pay cash. iWrity goes further: you get the book and a monetary bid from the author for your time.
Yes. iWrity currently verifies reading through Amazon, so an active account in good standing is needed. Amazon requires the account to have made at least $50 in purchases. As long as you meet that threshold, you are eligible.
