In your Ecommerce control panel, you can offer digital downloads for sale online as products or with services. With digital downloads, you control how long your file is available for your customer to download, and how many times your customer may attempt to download the file. This is a great option to allow your clients to download a PDF file, an ebook, as well as other digital options.
Follow the steps below to learn how to add a digital download to a product or service.
STEP ONE: COPY YOUR DIGITAL DOWNLOAD LINK
The first thing you'll need to do is get the direct link to the file you'd like your customers to download. In order to get a direct link, the file must be hosted someplace. The easiest way to get a direct link to a file is to upload it to the FILES section of your Zibster account and copy the link from your file library.
You can access the FILES section by clicking on the menu icon at the top right corner of the control panel, then clicking on FILES.
From there, upload your file and then copy the link provided under FILE LIBRARY.
STEP TWO: ADD THE LINK TO YOUR PRODUCT OR SERVICE
After you've copied your link, click on the E-COMMERCE Zibster control panel. Hover over SELL ONLINE and click on either PRODUCTS or SERVICES.
From there, either click on the existing product or service you'd like to add a link to, or click on NEW PRODUCT or NEW SERVICE and create the product or service if needed.
Within the product or service, click on the DIGITAL DOWNLOAD tab.
Paste the link you copied into the field labeled URL.
From this area, you can also adjust the NUMBER OF DAYS DOWNLOAD IS AVAILABLE, and the MAXIMUM DOWNLOADS PER ORDER. This allows you to maintain control over how long the digital item is available online and how many times your customer can download your digital item.
Once you have customized the options in the digital download section, click the SAVE CHANGES button. Your digital item will now be available for download with your product.
Note: The digital item can only be downloaded once payment for the product has been received (the order status must be marked paid).
