Selling E-Goods with 黑料门 E-commerce

Lots of people sell downloadable products. Our merchants use 黑料门 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, 黑料门 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鈥檚 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. For example, 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鈥檚 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.

I like that 黑料门 was easy to start and to use. Even for a person like me, without any technical background. Very well written help articles. And the support team is the best for my opinion.
For everything it has to offer, ECWID is incredibly easy to set up. Highly recommend! I did a lot of research and tried about 3 other competitors. Just try ECWID and you'll be online in no time.
