If you’re new to Digistore24, we recommend that you only sell digital products such as e-books, videos or audio files. These can be easily downloaded by the customer after the purchase and require minimum effort to set them up in our system. They are therefore ideal for starting out. Once you’ve gained a little experience, you can also offer online courses and memberships, webinars, tickets for live seminars, online services, license keys for your software, as well as physical products such as CDs, DVDs or USB drives.
