Question 3

Do I need a credit card to try RodBooks?

Accepted Answer

No. The Free plan gives you 10 credits and 3 books every month with no card required. You can upgrade later inside the app whenever you need more room.

Question 4

How fast can I publish my first book?

Accepted Answer

Most publishers go from idea to a print-ready PDF in under an hour. Pick a niche with Niche Finder, generate puzzles, build the listing copy and export the interior, then upload to KDP.

Question 5

What are the plan limits?

Accepted Answer

Free: 10 credits, 3 books, up to 10 puzzles per book. Pro ($29/mo or $249/yr): 100 credits, 5 books, up to 80 puzzles per book. Business ($59/mo or $499/yr): 200 credits, 10 books, unlimited puzzles per book.

Question 6

How do credits work?

Accepted Answer

Each research and strategy action (keyword search, niche analysis, listing generation, etc.) costs a small number of credits. Generating puzzles and exporting PDFs does not use credits. Each tool shows its credit cost before you run it.

Question 7

Do credits roll over?

Accepted Answer

No. Credits and book quotas reset on the 1st of each month. Unused credits do not carry over so you always start fresh.

Question 8

What is the difference between monthly and annual billing?

Accepted Answer

Annual plans give you the same monthly quotas (credits and books refresh each calendar month) at a discounted yearly rate. You pay once per year and get roughly two months free compared to monthly billing.

Question 9

Can I switch plans at any time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can upgrade, downgrade or switch between monthly and annual billing from the Polar customer portal. Plan changes take effect immediately and are pro-rated where applicable.

Question 10

How do these workflows work?

Accepted Answer

Tools like Niche Finder, Competition Analyzer, Title Generator, Description Generator, Backend Keywords, Cover Blueprint, A+ Content Blueprint and Category Finder combine structured KDP workflows, marketplace signals and validation checks to suggest profitable niches and produce KDP-ready listing copy quickly.

Question 11

What file formats can I export?

Accepted Answer

Print-ready PDFs at 300 DPI, optimised for Amazon KDP with correct trim sizes, margins and bleed. Upload the export directly as your KDP interior file.

Question 12

Are generated outputs unique?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each generation is produced fresh per request based on the inputs you provide. We never resell or reuse content generated for one customer in another account.

Question 13

Can I edit a puzzle after generating it?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every generator includes a layout designer where you can fine-tune size, margins, fonts, page numbers and decorations before exporting your final PDF.

Question 14

How are payments processed?

Accepted Answer

All RodBooks subscriptions are billed securely through Polar. They handle checkout, invoices and the cancellation portal. We never see or store your full card number.

Question 15

Do you offer refunds?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer a 15-day money-back guarantee on your first paid subscription, provided you have not generated any book and have used 5 credits or fewer. Email support@rodbooks.com with your order details and we will process it.

Question 16

How do I cancel my subscription?

Accepted Answer

Open the Polar customer portal from your billing settings and click Cancel. You keep paid access until the end of the current billing period and there are no further charges after that.

Question 17

Will I be charged automatically when my plan renews?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Polar will charge the same payment method used at signup at the start of each new billing cycle. You can update your card or cancel auto-renewal at any time from the customer portal.

Question 18

Can I use the output commercially?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every puzzle, listing, cover and PDF you generate with a paid plan is yours to publish and sell on Amazon KDP and other marketplaces. The Free plan is for personal evaluation only.

Question 19

Are RodBooks puzzles unique to my account?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Word lists, grid placements, sudoku boards and clue layouts are generated per request based on your inputs and seeds, so two publishers do not get identical books.

Question 20

Do I need to credit RodBooks in my book?

Accepted Answer

No attribution is required. Books generated through RodBooks are yours to publish under your own author name and brand.

Question 21

Are RodBooks affiliated with Amazon KDP?

Accepted Answer

No. RodBooks is an independent SaaS product. We are not endorsed, sponsored or affiliated with Amazon, KDP, Kindle or any other Amazon service.

Question 22

Where is my data stored?

Accepted Answer

Your account, generated content and analytics are stored on managed infrastructure in secured European and US regions. Backups are encrypted in transit and at rest.

Question 23

Can I delete my account?

Accepted Answer

Yes. From your Account settings you can request account deletion. We remove personal data within 30 days and only keep the minimum information legally required for invoices and fraud prevention.

Question 24

Is my work private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Generated puzzles, books and listing outputs are visible only to you. We never share user-generated content with other accounts.
