Selling E-Goods with Ecwid E-commerce
Lots of people sell downloadable products. Our merchants use Ecwid E-commerce to sell music, video, e-books, documents, and PDF files on their own websites. No matter which type of files you have for sale, Ecwid E-commerce provides a rich set of features for selling e-goods.
These features include:
- An “upload file” tool inside your store Control Panel. This tool lets you add an electronic product to your inventory, set the price, and specify taxes and promos for it as you like.
- Instant goods delivery. When a customer buys a product from you, the customer’s download link is instantly delivered via email so they can access their purchased file.
- Extra protection for download links. Set a self-destruct timer for your download links, or set the maximum number of times a link can be used. This way you can rest assured that your products are safe, even if the customer shares a link online.
- Unlimited number of files per product. You can offer several downloadable files under one product to sell them in a bundle. De exemplu, a music album or series of books will consist of many individual files.
- Unlimited file storage and bandwidth. A single file can be up to 25 GB in size, but your shop’s overall storage is not limited. The number of files is unlimited as well, so you can upload as many files to your products as necessary without worrying about running out of space.
- Safe download for customers. Your customers automatically receive a direct download link for the ordered product as soon as the order is paid. Your files are safely hosted by Ecwid E-commerce, and there is no middleman between your online store and your customers.
Sell Downloadable Files Up to 25GB
We remember times when 100 MB was quite enough for most sellers dealing in e-books, audio files, documents, or photos. But a lot of merchants started to sell bigger files, like movies, lossless audio, or even software. Now you’re not limited by smaller files, as you can upload files up to 25 GB in your store!
You can sell basically any type of files:
- smaller files like photos, music, e-books, or PDFs and document files
- bigger files such as lossless audio, video, or digital games
- large product files, like HD video and computer software.
