A reading house — for readers who want a calm app and a fair price, for authors and publishers who want to be paid honestly, for printers who want a steady book of work.
Our house
Reading is private. Buying is simple. Authors and publishers should be paid clearly, on time, in the currency they actually use. None of these are radical ideas, but most online reading platforms have lost track of them.
Loni is one platform, three apps, no clutter. The web is for browsing, buying, and managing your account. The mobile app is for reading. There is no in-app purchase on mobile — we don't take a cut just to take a cut. Mobile Money and cards both work.
Who it's for
Browse on the web. Buy in CFA francs by Mobile Money or card. Read in the Loni mobile app — bookmarks, highlights, notes, font size, theme, search inside the book, and offline reading all sync across your devices.
Authors and publishers list books with cover, metadata, and any combination of digital + printed editions. Upload EPUB, PDF, or DOCX. Keep 70% of net revenue per sale. Track every order, every payout, every reader-side action affecting your earnings.
Print partners receive paid orders in their portal, print and ship within the service-level window, upload proof of delivery, and request payouts on their schedule. Loni handles customer support and refunds.
