They’re popular for selling digital products, but they come with a catch. SaaS platforms charge monthly fees that eat into your digital product revenue. Marketplaces like Etsy and Gumroad take a large cut of every digital product sale, charge listing fees, and own your customer relationships. With Easy Digital Downloads, you own your digital store, your customer data, and your revenue. No monthly platform fees, no listing fees, and no marketplace commissions on your digital product sales. Easy Digital Downloads gives you the freedom to sell digital products on your own WordPress site with the same powerful ecommerce features as these platforms, plus the flexibility to customize your digital store.

It works well and support is timely. I also like that they are always working to improve the software. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/edcb50b4ae8bb05b5d9d3207735f17e437ac3d9d1196d8d6cab93ba3270c0630? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Free plugin, until it wasn’t](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/free-plugin-until-it-wasnt/)󠁿 [bighrts](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bighrts/) August 4, 2026 I built my entire storefront around Easy Digital Downloads specifically because it offered free PayPal integration for digital products. That was the whole reason I chose it. Seven months later, an update added a 3% "Pay as you go" platform fee on top of PayPal's own processing fees. That fee did not exist when I originally connected my store through EDD to Paypal. There was no clear warning before this rolled out, and the only way to avoid it now is to pay for an Extended Pass license of $99+. The only fee-free option remaining is manual check payments which not viable for an actual online store making the free version of the plugin completely useless. If you're thinking of using EDD because it's "free," know that "free" does not cover any real online checkout. PayPal or Stripe both cost you 3% on top of standard processing fees unless you pay for a license. Very deceptive and I'm not using them anymore.
