You have two options for designing your thank you page:

Password-protected member area – with DigiMember

You can protect your thank you page by requiring a login to a member area. We recommend using the WordPress plugin DigiMember for this method. DigiMember keeps your content secure by automatically sending your customers a password for logging into the member area after their purchase. This method is currently the industry standard.

Please note that with this option, you should specify the DigiMember login page as the thank you page. It is also important to inform the customer about the next steps and let them know that the charge will be processed by Digistore24.

Own download page as thank you page with cryptic URL and “no follow, no index” tag

On your own thank you/download page, you can provide the download directly. The page URL should be cryptic and the page should contain the “no follow, no index” tag to ensure it cannot be found through search engines.

Please create a secret URL that cannot be easily guessed, and offer the download link on this page.

URL example: https://My-Website.com/download_IVQ9ZnegWcY.html

We have had very good experiences with this method regarding security. It is crucial that the thank you/download page cannot be found via search engines.

If you need assistance with implementation, we recommend hiring a technician. You can find freelancers to support you on www.machdudas.de.
