Author Fee

Blockchain Frontier Technology has established the following fee structure for authors:

  • Article Submission Fee: IDR 0.00 Authors are not required to pay any submission fees when submitting articles to BFRONT.
  • Article Processing Charges (APCs) / Article Publication Fee: $100 (USD). This fee includes an 8% PayPal processing charge. The APCs support the open-access dissemination of research findings and cover various administrative and editorial costs associated with the management and publication of manuscripts. Upon acceptance of an article, either the authors or their affiliated institutions are expected to cover this fee. The fee provides for:
    • Standard publication of manuscripts up to twelve (12) pages. An additional charge of $10 per page will be applied for manuscripts exceeding this length.
    • DOI registration for each article.
    • Similarity check using Turnitin, with the final report available to authors upon request.
    • Layout editing to align with the journal's template and standards.

Fee Waiver Policy: The Editor holds the discretion to grant a full or partial waiver of the author fees under specific circumstances, such as financial constraints, unusually long manuscripts, or other valid reasons presented by the author at the time of submission. Authors seeking a waiver should indicate their request in the "comments to the Editor" section during submission. It's essential to request a waiver at this stage, as late requests are more likely to be declined. Importantly, the decision to grant a waiver will not influence the outcome of the manuscript review process.
