How much do you pay?

Reviewers are paid following a tier system, where the first three completed review processes* per year are paid $100 (USD). After that, they are compensated with $150 (USD) per completed review process*. The tier resets every year. The specified amounts are inclusive of any taxes that may apply.

*Please note that one review or handling process may include several rounds of reviews of the same paper. Generally, we advise against more than two rounds of reviews per paper to minimize the workload for editors and reviewers. Please also note that the initial decision to reject a paper without reviews will not count as a completed editing or review process and will therefore not be financially compensated. Likewise, the editor is not compensated when they assign action editors to handle a given paper.
