Introducing FOC Rewards: Preorder. Pick Up. Get Paid.
FOC decides everything.
Every Wednesday, a new comic hits the shelf. What decides its fate happens earlier: Final Order Cutoff. Retailers lock orders. It shapes print runs, marketing, and whether a series continues.
Most fans overlook it. Not anymore.
FOC Rewards is live. A new program from DSTLRY Media—across DSTLRY Publishing and Neon Ichiban—that puts real money back in your pocket for supporting books early.
Start here: focrewards.com
Here’s the deal:
-
$2.50 for submitting proof of a qualifying preorder before FOC
-
$2.50 for confirming pickup in-store (photo + geolocation)
-
$5 per title.
Credit goes straight to your Neon Ichiban wallet. Use it across the platform.
No points. No tiers. No hoops.
Preorder. Pick up. Get paid.
Why this matters
Preorders drive everything.
They give retailers confidence. They guide print runs. They signal demand to publishers and creators.
Fans have always done this work. Now it pays back.
