Three platforms, three completely different fee structures. Here's where your money actually goes on Payhip, Gumroad, and Creastor — and which one makes the most financial sense for your revenue level.

Payhip advertises "free forever" with all features included. But the 5% transaction fee, payment processor fees, and missing email tools add up to far more than a simple monthly subscription.

Payhip lets you build and sell courses for free. But if you're planning to make courses your primary revenue stream, the missing features will cost you students and sales.

Switching platforms sounds painful. It's not. Here's exactly how to move your products, customers, and links from Payhip to Creastor — most creators finish in a single sitting.

You've listed your digital products on Payhip. They're not showing up on Google. Here's why Payhip's infrastructure blocks organic discovery — and what to do about it.

Sellfy charges $29/month minimum, caps your annual revenue, and limits your email sends. Here's what to use instead — and why creators are making the switch.

Sellfy's $29/mo with revenue caps, Gumroad's 10% flat tax, or Creastor's $19/mo with 0% fees? We calculated the total cost at every revenue level.

Sellfy looks affordable at $29/month — until your sales hit $10,000/year and you're forced to upgrade to $79/month overnight. Here's how the revenue cap system really works.

Sellfy gives you 10,000 email credits per month on the Starter plan. A single product launch to 3,000 subscribers burns through most of them. Here's why credit-based email holds creators back.

Sellfy bundles print-on-demand into your subscription — but is built-in convenience worth the trade-offs in product range, margins, and quality? Here's when to split your merch off.

Moving from Sellfy to Creastor takes under an hour. Here's exactly how to export your products, migrate your email list, set up your new store, and redirect your traffic without losing a single sale.
