Functions

Yumpu Publishing offers digital page-turning software for publishers. Since 2020, it has been using its proprietary software to build a "digital newsstand".[6] The service is also offered as a mobile app, the Yumpu Publishing AppKiosk.

With Yumpu, an interactive publication can be created from a PDF, which can then be embedded and offered for sale on websites, blogs or on social networks. While the publisher decides on the content type of their publication, Yumpu Publishing converts any PDF into a page-turning ePaper. This ePaper can be provided with multimedia elements such as sound, video, images and links.[9] The PDFs are readable by search engines like Google.[5]

The Yumpu Publishing service can be used for free or through a paid subscription. The paid subscription comes at four different levels, where publishers also have the option to gain access to data about their publications.[10]

Yumpu News is a subscription-based platform through which users can read various news publications. Its service can initially be used for 30 days in a free trial subscription; after that, a paid registration is necessary.[9][11] It is available on desktop and mobile apps.[6]
