We accept payments for Article Processing Charges (APCs), invoices, and other publishing fees. Use the instructions below to complete payment by wire transfer, card (PayPal/Stripe), UPI/local gateway, or institutional purchase order (PO). Please keep your invoice number or manuscript ID as the payment reference so we can reconcile quickly.
Quick summary
- Standard APC (default): USD 200 per article (unless your invoice states otherwise).
- Invoice timing: You will be invoiced in USD after acceptance and proof approval.
- Due date: As shown on the invoice (typically 30 days). Contact finance to request an extension.
- Need a waiver or discount? Request this at acceptance — waivers are considered independently of editorial decisions.
How to pay — step-by-step
- Confirm the invoice (check invoice number, article title, amount in USD).
- Choose a payment method below. Use the invoice number (e.g., INV-2026-0001) as the payment reference.
- Complete the transaction and forward proof of payment (transfer receipt / screenshot / UPI confirmation / payment provider receipt) to contact@usrgp.com so we can reconcile and issue an official receipt. If an institutional payor is handling payment, provide the purchase order and designated payor details in your email.

Card payments (PayPal / Stripe / Checkout)

What to do if you cannot pay
If you cannot meet the APC, request a waiver, partial waiver, or payment delay at the time of acceptance. Waiver requests are assessed transparently and independently of editorial decisions — contact editorial@usrgp.com for guidance and follow the waiver application process described in the APC policy.
Security & privacy
We do not store raw card numbers. Card payments are processed by third-party, PCI-compliant providers (e.g., PayPal, Stripe). By submitting payment information or proof, you consent to OMR Publication recording transaction metadata for invoicing and record-keeping. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
