Article processing charge

Heranca APC is 450€ for regular review (6-8 weeks), or 1500€ for fast review (2-4 weeks). The article processing charge (APC), includes numerous editing and dissemination support services in the best databases in the world. In this context, the importance of invisible work behind the scenes is highlighted, which allows for moderate average publication times, rapid submission for copy editing, design/editing and approval by the author(s), access to indexes and publication of abstracts, attribution of DOI and publication in Open Access, increasing the visibility of authors, and, finally, the hosting of articles in archive, among others. It should also be noted that the APC is charged. 

In this framework, we do not aim at profit, but at creating scale through the methodology and technological platform, ensuring sustainability at all stages of the process, with transparency and equity.

      Partial refund

- You can ask us to transfer you back the 30% of the production charges (in which case we will pay the bank/PayPal commission) if at least 25 documents cite your paper in WOS in the following four years. We must exclude the documents you authored from the list to avoid fostering unethical behavior. In case the number of citations of your article is close to the threshold, write to us and we will study your case!
