How to sell digital products with no upfront costs through a Pay Link

Creating yourself a Pay Link is an easy and simple process that won’t cost you a penny. Within minutes, your digital products are online for everyone to purchase. Plus, they’re unlimited.

Above, you’ll see an example of a Pay Link. This example took just minutes to create and upon purchase, consumers will get access to instant digital download files. The link has been customised to represent the items for sale.

As a small business, tools like this are so valuable as they allow you to sell your digital products hassle-free. You can create as many Pay Links as you need, so each item you have to sell can have its own feature and unique link.

With Pay Links, you can customise everything. From the title of the link, to the URL, Background Image and description. This keeps the business owner in full control. Allowing them to focus their Pay Link around their business branding.

They’re easy for your customers to use. All they need to do is head to the link, click on the Buy button and pop in their card or PayPal details. They’ll see the product start to download to their device, and you’ll find their payment appear on your PUSH.fm account.

On the Checkout page, you can choose how your customers can pay. If you don’t have a preference, we’d recommend leaving both options switched on.

It encourages more people to buy, as some will only have one method, and others will want the alternative. However, do check out what these options charge.

You can now start sharing your link with your audience, who can purchase from you straight away. Make sure you’ve named your link for your own reference.

📌 PUSH tip: If you do need to change the items within your Pay Link, please contact [email protected]

There you have it, in just a few minutes, your digital products are online. It’s important once they are that you start sharing them with your audience. Add these links to your social media bios and start marketing your content.

You can access your PUSH account at any time to see how much you have earned through your Pay Link. Please be aware, you cannot request a payout until your earnings have reached the $50 threshold. After this time, you can make a request and will need to attach your details.

Decide how it is best to be paid, and attach this information to your PUSH account. You will receive your payout on the 15th of the month. So, if you request a payout after this date, your earnings will be sent the following payment month.
