Delivery happens when the customer successfully completes a payment. The value add is this:

If you sell e.g. a downloadable product, it's relatively easy to manually email out a link to it every time you make a sale.

But when you start to grow and/or see an increase in sales, you'll be wasting a lot of time on delivering that eBook to all those customers. This, x10, for other digital content like license keys.

And if you look at it from the customer's perspective: you don't want to wait for the seller to come online and send a link to the product you paid for hours ago. You want it instantly.

That is where the simplicity of SellApp comes in. We handle the payment, automatically send out the product to the customer, and help the customer get in touch with you in case anything is wrong with their purchase.

Thanks for explaining. Would this work for an ebook that has unique watermarking per customer, or does it have to be the same exact downloadable each time? Other than ebooks, what are other popular product types that you're seeing?

Not a worry. We don't have eBook watermarking/stamping yet, so every customer will get the same exact eBook.

That said, it's relatively easy to implement this specific feature (pretty sure I've got the relevant code from our old codebase somewhere) if/when a seller requests it.

It's mostly either downloadable goods, or serial-based products, but we launched just last week so I anticipate the type of popular product types will change as we grow.

It’s easy if you know how to do it. You have to implement a backend that’s the issue. But I’ve heard that zappier might help you avoid that.
