iTunes / Apple Books Royalty Statements
How to download your Apple Books ebook royalty reports
Apple distributes ebooks through Apple Books (formerly iBooks). Royalty statements are available as tab-delimited text files (.txt) from the iTunes Connect / App Store Connect financial reports section. These reports contain multi-currency sales data across all regions.
How to Download Your Statements
Log in to App Store Connect
Go to App Store Connect and sign in with your Apple ID.
Navigate to Financial Reports
Go to Payments and Financial Reports and select the reporting period you want to download.
Download the Report
Download your earnings report as a .txt file. The file will be tab-delimited and contain sales data across all territories and currencies.
Upload to Familiar
Upload the .txt file to Familiar. The parser will automatically detect the distributor, extract the reporting period from the data, and handle multi-currency conversions.
