# Kindle ebook pricing: 35% or 70%

Which price range earns 70%, what the delivery fee is and when 35% is the only option.

Kindle ebooks earn either 35% or 70% of the list price.

## The 70% range on Amazon.com

- List price between $2.99 and $12.99.
- A delivery fee of $0.15 per megabyte is taken off each sale, so heavy picture books earn less.
- Some marketplaces also require KDP Select for 70%.

## 35%

Outside that range the rate is 35%, with no delivery fee. The lowest 35% price depends on file size: $0.99 under 3 MB, $1.99 from 3 to 10 MB, $2.99 above 10 MB. The highest is $200.00.

For a picture-heavy ebook, compare both: a big file at 70% can earn less than the same price at 35%.
