Step 6. Payment Methods

To facilitate efficient and secure transactions, the journal recommends different payment methods based on the author’s institutional affiliation. These recommendations are intended to minimize transaction costs and administrative delays.

Step 7. Payment Currency Determination

The currency used for APC payment is determined by the author category and institutional collaboration status, as outlined below.

Optional Service: Fast Review

Authors with urgent publication requirements may apply for the Fast Review Service by submitting a formal request via email to senarai@tunasharapanummat.or.id or by stating the request in the “Note for Editor” during manuscript submission.
