Article processing charges

The standard article processing charge (APC) is USD 400 or RMB 2,500 per accepted article. The applicable charge is invoiced after editorial acceptance.

APC discount based on funding need

For new manuscripts submitted on or after 7 November 2026, corresponding authors who lack APC funding from their institution, research funder or co-authors may apply for a 50% discount. If approved, the APC is USD 200 or RMB 1,250. Authors may apply from any country. Only the most favorable applicable discount or waiver is used.

Request the discount at initial submission by emailing editorialoffice@masonpublish.org with the manuscript ID, the corresponding author's primary affiliation and a brief statement of the funding available for the APC. The publisher handles requests separately from editorial decisions. A request, ability to pay or discount status does not influence peer review or acceptance.
