Important details about membership activation
Find answers to common membership queries
Yes. Colloquys Journal memberships are valid for one year from activation. About 30 days before expiry, you'll receive a reminder email. Renewal is manual unless enrolled in an auto-renewal plan.
If you upgrade during your active term, you only pay the pro-rated difference based on unused portion. The upgraded benefits apply immediately, but your membership expiry date remains the same (unless you extend for a full year).
Unused free submission quotas expire at the end of the membership year and cannot be carried forward. We recommend scheduling submissions within the membership period to maximize your benefits.
Once your free submission quota is used, you still benefit from reduced APCs compared to non-members. The exact discounted APC depends on your membership plan and will be clearly shown in your member dashboard.
Membership ensures priority assistance from our editorial office and faster responses to technical queries. However, peer review and editorial evaluation follow the same independent and rigorous standards for all authors.
No. Membership is strictly non-transferable and applies only to the individual or institution that registered. Co-authors or collaborators need their own membership to access benefits.
Individual Membership: Designed for single researchers with benefits like free submissions and discounted APCs.
Institutional Membership: Offers broader advantages with higher submission quotas, APC waivers for multiple authors, consolidated dashboards, and bulk submission management.
After successful payment, you'll receive a confirmation email. You can also log into your member dashboard, where your membership plan, expiry date, and remaining free quota will be clearly displayed.
Colloquys accepts major credit/debit cards and international bank transfers. All payments are processed securely. For detailed information, please refer to the Fees & Payment section on our website.
Yes. Colloquys membership is open globally without geographical restrictions. Payment options and available currencies may vary by region. In some cases, APC discounts or waivers are applied for researchers from low- and middle-income countries.
