Payment Methods:
Accepted payment methods include credit card, bank transfer, or institutional invoice. Detailed payment instructions will be provided after manuscript acceptance.

APC Transparency:
The journal ensures transparency in its APC structure. The fee supports the entire publication process, with editorial decisions remaining unaffected by the payment.

Cancellations and Refunds:
If an article is withdrawn after acceptance but before publication, a partial or full refund of the APC may be granted depending on the stage of publication.

IJARCSE may partner with institutions or organizations to cover APCs for affiliated authors.

Regular Review of APC Policy:
The APC policy is periodically reviewed to ensure it reflects the actual costs of publication and remains fair to authors.
