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.
