Yumpu review
A flexible flipbook publisher with free publishing and paid kiosk expansion.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Yumpu is a web-based digital publishing platform from i-magazine AG that converts PDFs into interactive ePaper publications. It is designed for magazines, brochures, catalogues, and reports that need to be shared through direct links, social networks, or embedded website players. The free plan covers PDF-to-ePaper conversion, responsive design, adjustable reading mode, page-flip effects, and up to three magazines. With web, iOS, Android, and API availability, Yumpu suits publishers and businesses that want digital distribution without starting with a paid plan.
Pricing is structured around a free entry tier and progressively broader publishing options. The adFREE plan costs $24.95 per month with monthly billing or $19.95 per month with annual billing, adding no third-party ads, player branding, multimedia elements, analytics, and website integration. WEBKiosk costs $95 monthly or $85.50 monthly with annual billing and adds an online kiosk, corporate design, a drag-and-drop editor, and premium support. APPKiosk costs $219 per month on either listed billing option and adds a customized iOS or Android app, push notifications, and offline reading. PROKiosk costs $339 per month and includes customized iOS and Android apps, user groups, and in-app subscriptions.
The product’s main strength is its progression from simple flipbook publishing to branded web kiosks and customized mobile apps. Publications can include videos, audio, links, analytics, password protection, visibility controls, and customer logos. The listed ecosystem connections are Google Analytics, website embed code, and the Yumpu API, so Yumpu fits organizations focused on digital publication delivery more than broad business-tool integration. Choose it for free or ad-free flipbooks with a clear kiosk upgrade path; consider another option if extensive integrations are central to the workflow.
