ePublishing Acquires Leading Subscription-Management Software Provider Multipub

ePublishing, a trusted provider of content management, e-commerce, and workflow solutions to publishers for almost three decades, has acquired long-time partner Multipub, which offers leading subscription-management solutions. ePublishing and Multipub have been supporting publishers together since 2014.

The merger strengthens that relationship and enables the two companies to build better tools, including seamless user experiences, integrated fulfillment options, and increased revenue for B2B publishers, newspapers, and data providers.

The entire Multipub team will remain with the business to continue to support clients’ growth and develop the product.

“We are pleased to welcome Multipub into the ePublishing family,” said ePublishing CEO Tom Chaffee. “Multipub has helped publishers grow for more than four decades. Combining Multipub’s products and expertise with our integrated suite of software and services furthers our mission to provide a unified, full-stack solution that drives revenue, improves productivity, and increases engagement for publishers.”

More than 700 users manage in excess of 500 publications and products in Multipub. The platform simplifies subscription management, allowing publishers of all types to manage orders seamlessly, and increase efficiencies.

“Over the years, we have worked with ePublishing to expand our system’s capabilities and better serve business-to-business publishers and newspapers. This merger is a natural extension of that collaboration and offers benefits to our clients, products, and employees,” said Multipub President and COO Lorna Fenimore. “Now, we can more easily support those desiring a single source for their best-of-breed technology stack, because our solutions work together without extensive integration efforts. We are excited about the opportunities ahead as we grow with one another.”

Multipub drives audience management for business-to-business, consumer, and newspaper publishers – and any enterprise selling access to content or data on a subscription model. The powerful data within Multipub gives publishers a 360-degree view of each customer, improving efficiency and enabling publishers to maximize sales and marketing efforts.
