Why use your ISBN instead of KDP's free ISBN?
Amazon KDP's free ISBN can only be used on KDP, and its imprint shows as "Independently published", which can't be changed. An ISBN from us also works on other platforms, and lists your book on Bookwire once you register it.
| KDP's free ISBN | An ISBN from us | |

| Where you can use it | KDP only | KDP and the other platforms in our platform list |
| Imprint | "Independently published", can't be changed | "Staten House" for books registered in our portal |
