Editorial commentary
Full or partial waiver for article processing charges (APCs) offered by some publishers to authors based in selected developing countries or low-income economies, based on the premise that inability to pay should not preclude publication. Fee waivers are sometimes offered as a marketing incentive for a fixed period to all authors.
