There is no submission fee for SLR-M. Unlike other journals, whose business model is based on making readers pay and therefore their contents are closed to the public, Systematic Literature Review and Meta-Analysis (SLR-M) Journal publishes open-access content, which allows authors to reach a wider audience and foster the international and social impact of their contributions. To make this open access policy sustainable, the Systematic Literature Review and Meta-Analysis (SLR-M) Journal are charging £200 per article. However, the fee waiver is available for authors from developing countries. We are not receiving any funding from any organization to facilitate the publication process. The journal is also thankful for the voluntary services provided by researchers who have an interest in systematic literature reviews and meta-analyses to make this open-access journal sustainable. 

The Association of Professional Researchers and Academicians (The APRA) publisher is seeking to enhance the readability of its published content, the SLR-M is collaborating with many associations and societies working with The Association of Professional Researchers and Academicians (The APRA) globally and provides discounts to the members of these associations and societies. Currently, SLR-M is collaborating with CONNECTING ASIA and all members of these associations can enjoy a fee waiver of 50% for any publication in SLR-M.
