Understanding Product Types

Not sure which product type to select for your listing? Here's a breakdown of each product type and when to use them.

Digital Good (Movie or Download)

Choose this when you have a digital product that's already created and ready to be delivered to the customer. This could be a movie, a music album, a software download, or any other digital file.

Custom Video or Digital Good

Choose this when you're offering a custom video service. This could be a personalized video message, a video editing service, or any other video-related service.

You can also choose this for other types of custom digital goods, like a 3d design file. Just make sure to describe the service in the product description.

Physical Good (Requiring Shipping)

Choose this when you have a pre-designed physical product that you stock up or create on demand. This could be a t-shirt, a mug, a poster, or any other physical product that requires shipping.

Custom Physical Good

Choose this to take commissions for custom physical goods. This could be a custom painting, a handmade necklace, or any other custom physical product.

Service

Choose this when you're offering a service that doesn't involve creating a digital or physical product. This could be a consulting service, a coaching service, or any other service that doesn't involve delivering a product.

Generally, you should charge your service's deposit amount through the platform and then collect the remaining balance directly from the customer.

Subscription

Choose this when you're offering a digital content subscription. Use the Blog tool to create a blog post with private content, and then announce the blog post to your paid subscribers.

Subscription Upgrade

Choose this when you're offering an upgrade to an existing subscription service. This could be a premium subscription tier, an add-on service, or any other upgrade to an existing subscription service.
