Article Processing Charges

The International Journal of Innovative Technologies in Economy (IJITE) operates as an open-access journal, providing immediate and unrestricted access to all published articles. To cover the costs associated with high-quality publishing, IJITE applies an Article Processing Charge (APC) to accepted manuscripts. This APC supports the editorial workflow, peer review management, typesetting, online hosting, and long-term archiving of articles.

APC Amount

  • The APC for IJITE is 120 USD per accepted article.

Payment Process

  • Authors will receive an invoice following acceptance of their manuscript. Payment options include credit card, PayPal, and bank transfer. Details for bank transfer will be provided on the invoice.
  • Payment is required before the article can be processed for final publication.

APC Waivers

  • IJITE offers waivers or discounts on APCs for authors from low-income countries, as classified by theWorld Bank. Authors may apply for a waiver during submission, and requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

What the APC Covers

The APC ensures that IJITE can continue to provide a high standard of publishing services, including:

  • Editorial Management: Coordination of the peer review process, including reviewer selection and feedback integration.
  • Production: Typesetting, formatting, and preparation of articles for online publication.
  • Open Access: Ensuring all articles are freely accessible to readers globally without subscription fees.
  • Indexing and Archiving: Securing the visibility and long-term accessibility of articles in indexing and archiving services.

No Submission Fees

  • IJITE does not charge any fees for manuscript submission or peer review. The APC applies only to manuscripts that are accepted for publication following peer review.

Refund Policy

  • APCs are non-refundable once the article has been accepted.
  • If a manuscript is withdrawn by the author prior to peer review or rejected after peer review, no APC is charged.

By supporting IJITE through the APC, authors contribute to the open-access model, enabling the journal to disseminate knowledge widely and foster research impact across the field of technology and economy.
