Sell your digital products directly within Kit

You can sell your digital products directly through your existing Kit account without having an e-commerce integration.

The only cost of this feature is the industry-standard 3.5% + $0.30 processing fee per transaction. Better yet, you don't need to be on a paid plan to use it.

All Commerce features are available to both our paid and free plan users.

All you need to do is set up payments and create a product to start selling. Cha-ching!

Currently, these countries are supported: United States, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland.

Support for other countries is coming soon. We'll keep this page updated as this feature progresses.

Our existing e-commerce integrations aren't going anywhere. There's absolutely no requirement to use your Kit account to sell digital products if you prefer to do this on a separate e-commerce platform.

Here are some ideas to get your creative juices flowing:

This is just the tip of the iceberg. There are options for every niche, and we can't wait to see what you come up with.

First, check out our guide on setting up payments, and then create a product to start selling.

No, there aren't. The 3.5% + $0.30 processing fee per transaction is the only cost to you when you sell products via your Kit account. (And since this is a processing fee, it'll kick in only when you make sales.)

Kit fees are comparable to some of our competitors in this space. That being said, we are building a platform for creators.

As a result, we are not attempting to (nor claiming to) compete against the transaction fees offered by banks or other financial institutions. We instead suggest drawing fee comparisons between us and other platforms in the creator space, balancing these fees against factors like feature set and ease-of-use.

The following currencies are supported:

Transaction fees will vary due to the exchange rates in different currencies.

Here are the fees per currency:

As the seller, you will be paid in your bank account's currency. Find out more about currencies here.

Yes, you will, for receiving payments—and you'll need to create a new one for linking with your Kit account even if you already have a Stripe account. You'll create this Stripe account when setting up payments in Kit for the first time.

Like many other e-commerce systems, Stripe powers a lot of our commerce features under the hood. They're a world-class leader for payment processing and fraud prevention, and we want our creators to directly benefit from that expertise.

Currently, apart from Value-Added Tax (VAT), we don't have a way of charging or collecting taxes payable for purchased products. However, we may in the future.

We are specifically working on further tax support, like Canada QST and US sales tax.

Can Kit help me calculate VAT (Value-Added Tax)?

Yes, we can. You may find these articles helpful:

Payouts to trusted creators go out every Friday. That said, your first payout will take a bit longer due to processing.

Typically, you’ll receive it 7–14 days after your first successful sale, with subsequent payments occurring weekly thereafter.

Yes, you can. Check out our tutorial on setting up a paid newsletter for more details. (It applies to other types of subscription-based products, too.)

Yes, you can apply discount codes to your products. We show you how here.

You can sell whatever you'd like, but Kit can fulfill only digital products for now. If you choose to sell something else, like a workshop, you'll be responsible for fulfilling that offering.

No, product bundles are not supported at this time, though this is something we're working on.

Can I upsell customers who purchase one of my products?

Yes, you can feature up to two upsells on your products' checkout pages. This is a great way to offer more value to your customers and to increase revenue for someone who has already made the decision to buy.

When setting up your product, choose the Go to URL fulfillment method. Learn more in our guide to creating a product.

We support static image files (such as JPG or PNG) for product images.

The button's color and text cannot be changed at this time.

You can add additional messaging in the receipt email as a workaround for changing the button text.

The Download button will not show on receipts if you haven't uploaded a file to your product's fulfillment settings.

If you have a paid account, you have the option to remove the Kit badge. If you are a free user, the badge cannot be removed.

You can make a test purchase in two ways:

If you no longer want to sell a product, you have two options:

Yes, you can be by enabling account notification for product purchases and/or subscription cancellations. Learn how in our article on account notifications.

Yes. The download link may be used multiple times and by anyone who has the link.

Yes, you can navigate to the subscriber's profile and click the Purchases tab to resend the receipt.

Full refunds are supported, with partial refunds coming down the road. Here's how to process a refund.

If a purchase is labeled as incomplete or expired, that means that the purchase didn't go through, and the customer wasn't charged. The customer should generally try to purchase again.
