Digital Products

Digital products let you upload and sell downloadable files as a standalone product or as a gate step.

Uploading a digital product

1. Go to Dashboard → Digital Products
2. Click New product
3. Fill in:
   • Name — shown to readers at purchase
   • Description — what the reader gets
   • Price — one-time purchase price
   • File — upload the file (PDF, EPUB, ZIP, etc., up to 100 MB)
   • Cover image — optional thumbnail shown in the gate
4. Click Save

The file is stored securely and is only accessible to paying readers via a time-limited download link.

Using a digital product in a gate

Add a Digital product step to any gate (see Gate steps). When a reader reaches this step, they see the product name, description, price, and cover image. After purchasing, they receive a download link and access to the gated content.

Managing products

From the Digital Products list you can:

• Edit the name, description, price, or cover image
• Replace the file — existing purchasers retain access to the old file; new purchasers get the new one
• Archive — hides the product from new gate flows (existing purchasers are not affected)

Purchase history

Click a product to see a list of all readers who have purchased it, with purchase dates and payment amounts.

Download links

After purchase, readers receive a download link valid for 24 hours. They can re-request a link by revisiting the page where they purchased the product.

File storage

Files are stored in Cloudflare R2 and served from Cloudflare's CDN — not through the OnePaywall app server. This keeps delivery fast regardless of file size.
