Gumroad Reviews & Product Details

Seriously, Gumroad makes it so easy to sell any digital product.. as they make checkout so easy for customers. Product is delivered instantly after purchasing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the 10% fee is high, Depending with your country,transfer to bank may not be availaible and you may have to use paypal or stipe Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's ridiculously easy to set up in minutes. In your account, you click on "New Product" and follow along. Gumroad delivers digital products like pdfs or audios straight for download or directs them to your membership/course site right to your customer's inbox.

Just connect your payment gateways and you're off!

Embedding the products into your website is also very easy, loads well and the customer UI and experience is a smooth, seamless process that beats other platforms.

Best for small casual solopreneurs/freelancers/hobbyists that sell low-volume digital products, like 30 sales of a $20 product.

Also for those who don't exactly like marketing their goods, as Gumroad allows your product to be displayed in their marketplace called Gumroad Discover. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the stark look of the November 2021 redesign, the old one was softer and filled out, and less harsh on the eyes. The new one seems too graffiti and Andy Warhol-like.

Their 10% flat fee is too much of a cut. This is not including the fees Stripe/Paypal take away. So if you have a $50 product, you'd get less than $45.

Comparing this to platforms like Snappy Checkout, which is just $0.50 per transaction.

Or a professional selling platform like Paykickstart, where if you sold 10 products at $100, you'd have made back the subscription fee compared to Gumroad.

As in, you can continue selling and technically pay no more fees to Paykickstart on their Starter tier, up to $10k/mth, while you still have to pay that 10% to Gumroad.

Gumroad also does not have any order bumps or upsells as of March 2023, so it's not possible to build a sales funnel. If you plan to earn more than $1000, it doesn't make financial sense to use Gumroad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With Gumroad I've been able to "set it and forget it." The interaction was very easy to navigate--I posted my books, set the price, and sent out a link to customers. There are tons of other features as well. And I like the fact that there are various ways to negotiate your relationship with Gumroad depending upon your level of sales.

Outside of the tech-based creator economy, more people have heard of ebook publishing platforms than they've heard of Gumroad, so I had a few customers who had trouble finding their way to the site (even with a link). I'm not thrilled with the tax reporting--it feels like an afterthought. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Gumroad because of it's pay-what-you-want and variable pricing options. I could not find another option that offered this feature. I also really love how easy it is to integrate Gumroad into my website. It's SUPER easy to use and I think the end-user-experience for my customers is pretty seamless as well.

I wish I could customize the email receipts and product delivery more. Gumroad give you the option of delivering files to customers or to redirect them to a link. If I could change one thing it would be more formatting and customization of the email confirmation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of set up and functions well for getting a store going. No monthly fee Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Too high a percentage of sales fee. CEO is a right wing troll on Twitter which I do not want to fund. They changed the UI with no notice and have little customization options. Exchanging currency when both customer and seller not in US dollar which causes uncertainty with fluctuations between payment and pay out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the interface for gummroad. It makes creating the products I want to sell really easy. I just launched my first free product before my paid one and it was easy as pie! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish their profile page had more options for customization. I want a section to add more than just a bio- maybe an intro video, some socials, more pics, things like that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The price. They will not charge you unless you make a profit from your sales. I highly recommend this site as opposed to Click Funnels and Samcart. This works best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, I just signed up, and so far, I do not see any negatives regarding the site. It is easy to set up; I have yet to have any hiccups on the website so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fast and straightforward UI. There are no unnecessary elements on the purchase page. Basically has only features that are required for selling products by the creators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the pages have gone down from the internet, making things a little tricky. There can be SEO functionality on the product pages, so that we can optimize these pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The options to create a product and ad multiple discounts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the new interface is so unpleasant for using its like some toy and not real helpful product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
