This is sometimes called a “diamond” or “platinum” open-access model — free to publish and free to read.

Business Model & Financial Sustainability

MyJMS is published by Three House Global Solutions. The journal operates on a low-cost, volunteer-driven model:

  • Editorial and review work is carried out on a voluntary basis by the editorial team and reviewers.
  • Hosting and infrastructure costs are met directly by the publisher.
  • The journal uses the free, open-source Open Journal Systems (OJS) platform.
  • The journal does not rely on APCs, advertising, or sponsorship that could influence editorial decisions.

Should cost pressures ever require introducing a fee as the journal scales, any change will be announced with at least six months' notice, will never apply to manuscripts already under review, and fair fee-waiver arrangements will be provided.

No Influence on Editorial Decisions

Because the journal charges no author fees, there is no financial incentive tied to acceptance. Editorial decisions are based solely on the academic merit of each submission.
