Frequently asked questions

Do I need to sell physical products to use Shopify?

You don't need physical products to use Shopify. You can build a store that sells only digital products like ebooks, templates, online courses, music, and design files, then add physical products to the same store anytime.

How do customers receive their files after they buy?

You can choose automatic or manual delivery. For automatic, instant delivery, your customer will get an email with a secure download link the moment they check out—no manual work on your end. You can also set download limits to control how many times each file can be accessed. Prefer to deliver manually for custom or made-to-order work? You can do that, too.

Is there a file size limit for my uploads?

Yes, you can upload and sell assets that are up to 5GB. That's plenty of room for high-resolution videos, full music albums, large design bundles, and detailed course materials. And if your product includes multiple files, you can bundle them together into a single product.

How much does it cost to sell digital products?

The Digital Products app is free with every Shopify plan—there's no extra monthly fee to sell digital. You'll just pay your standard Shopify subscription and the usual payment processing rates on each sale. No per-product surcharges, no hidden digital fees. You can see current plan pricing on our pricing page.

Can I migrate my existing products and customers over?

Yes, you can migrate your existing products, files, and customer list to Shopify. Whether you're coming from another digital selling tool, a marketplace, or a simple checkout link, migration tools and apps make the move straightforward, so you pick up right where you left off without losing your catalog or audience.

What types of digital products can I sell on Shopify?

You can sell digital products such as:

  • Ebooks, PDFs, guides, and workbooks
  • Templates, dashboards, presets, and worksheets
  • Courses, videos, and recorded workshops
  • Music, audiobooks, beats, and sample packs
  • Digital art, graphics, fonts, and brushes
  • Printables, patterns, and cut files
  • Services and bookings
  • NFTs
  • Links to hosted content, including Notion pages, online courses, booking pages, and cloud storage files

Shopify's free Digital Products app supports delivery through uploaded files or links from supported providers. For products or services that don't require shipping, you can designate them as digital so that shipping charges don't apply.

Can I sell digital and physical products together on Shopify?

Yes. You can sell digital products, physical products, or both in the same Shopify store. A single product can also combine physical and digital components—for example, a vinyl record that includes an MP3 download. Shopify's Digital Products app supports this type of mixed product.
