For details please see ourFAQ on Fees and Payment。

The following policies are valid for all journals published by JMIR Publications.

Why Fees?

We aim to publish widely indexed, carefully copyedited, high-quality manuscripts, that are also deposited in repositories such as PubMed Central, publication of an accepted paper requires expensive production steps such as copyediting, reference checking and XML tagging. In the editing & production stage, JMIR employs professional full-time staff and freelancers, including copyeditors (most journals such as PLOS do not include copyediting). To defray these costs (and because we cannot sell subscriptions like toll-access journals) we require authors to pay certain fees. Authors publishing in JMIR are paying a nominal submission fee ($90), an article processing fee (APF) only in case of acceptance, and (optionally) a fast-track fee for expedited review. These fees are usually funded from research grants, and new researchers in the area are urged to budget for open access publications in their grant proposals, much as they budget for conference presentations (please budget about $2000 per article). When comparing the costs for publishing in JMIR against the cost of publishing in other OA journals, please consider that 1) JMIR is consistently ranked #1 in its field by impact factor, 2) JMIR employs professional copyediting after acceptance, which is a service many OA journals with lower costs do not provide. Given these considerations, JMIR is currently one of the most cost-effective OA journals on the market. For a detailed fee overview seeInstructions for Authors。

Non-Credit Card Payment Handling Fees

There is a 7% handling fee for non-credit card payments (by cheque or wire). Links to the bank account and cheque payment information are on thecontact page。

Article Processing Fee Refund Policy

An invoice for the Article Processing Fee (APF) will be made out after acceptance (authors can also generate their invoices on theiruser homepage). The full fee will also be charged (and is non-refundable) if the article has been accepted but later cannot be published due to factors which are the responsibility of the author(s), for example, (a) the paper is, for any reason, withdrawn by the author after acceptance; (b) a copyright violation, case of plagiarism, undisclosed duplicate publication, or other form of scientific misconduct (eg, fabricating data) is discovered after acceptance, thereby preventing us from publishing the paper or requiring a retraction; (c) the paper cannot be published because the authors fail to provide the signedpublication forms。In all these cases, the full fee will be charged, regardless of the stage the manuscript is at, as long as the manuscript has already been accepted by the editor before withdrawal. The APF is also not refundable for articles which are retracted after publication, either by the author(s) or the editor due to scientific misconduct.

We also reserve the right to charge the full or partial fee if a copyright violation, case of plagiarism, undisclosed duplicate publication, multiple journal submission, or other form of scientific misconduct was discovered during peer review or after acceptance.

All co-authors share the responsibility for payment of the APF. We reserve the right to not consider further submissions from any author or co-author or users from institutions/departments which have unpaid invoices.

The APF is fully refundable if the paper cannot be published due to factors which are the responsibility of the editor, journal or publisher.

Fees for Discretionary Corrigenda and Addenda

Authors are invited to submit short addenda to exisiting manuscripts (including additional appendices, updates, additional material), or publish "discretionary" corrigenda such as missing acknowledgements, missing affiliations etc. There is a fee of $190 for the publication of such corrigenda/addenda (which also involves fixing the original paper and resubmitting information to various databases), if the error/omission was already in the proofs approved by authors.
