UP-TO-DATE Catalog vs Publuu
Publuu turns a PDF you already designed into a flipbook. We build the catalog itself — from your store URL — and then give you the same sharing, tracking and lead tools.
No account needed — see your catalog first, sign up only if you like it.
What it costs to publish under your own name
Every tool here does the basics. The price gap opens up at the tier where a custom domain and your own branding appear.
Optimum is where Publuu's custom domain, your logo, lead forms and tracking links start, capped at 50 flipbooks.
The shape of the difference
A polished PDF-to-flipbook tool with tracking links, lead forms, product tags and a branded mobile app.
This chart is our opinion, not a benchmark — we drew both shapes. The checkable facts are in the table below, and every price links to their own page.

Three real differences
You don't need a designed PDF
Publuu starts from a finished file; we start from your website — and still take the PDF if you have one.
An enquiry, not just a wishlist
Their wishlist emails you a list of products. Ours collects quantities and contact details, replies straight to the buyer, and lands in an inbox.
Everything at one price
Domain, white-label, unlimited catalogs and full history are one plan here. There they're spread across three, each capping how many flipbooks you keep.

When Publuu is the better choice
- You already produce a designed PDF every season and only need it turned into a flipbook.
- You want a branded Android app with push notifications for your readers (their Premium tier).
- You publish very large files — their top tier accepts 1 GB PDFs.

Judge it against your own file
Paste your store URL, or drop in the PDF you'd have uploaded there. It takes about a minute and costs nothing.
