A Payloadz alternative with a fully hosted beautiful storefront

Increase profits with upselling
We're one of the few eCommerce solutions to offer a built-in upselling feature, included in the Business plan. Use it wisely and you can skyrocket your effectiveness. Payloadz gives you all the basics for selling digital goods, but platforms like Sellfy can really help you take your sales to the next level.
Talk to your customers in their language
Just like Payloadz, the default language for our stores is English. However, if your customers speak other languages, Sellfy can automatically detect your buyers preferred language and set the store language to that. Pick between English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian or Russian.
How to switch from Payloadz to Sellfy
Move your store in six steps, and keep Payloadz selling until your Sellfy store is ready.
1. Export your product and sales history
Payloadz lists data export as a feature, so download your product and sales history from your account. Check what the sales file includes, since a buyer export isn't documented.
2. Save your product files
Payloadz stores your files on its servers and doesn't document downloading them back, so collect your originals first.
3. Set up your Sellfy store
Start a 14-day free trial, no credit card needed, and connect PayPal or Stripe. Plans start at $22/mo with 0% transaction fees.
4. Add your products, or let AI do it
Recreate your products with prices and files, plus license keys if you sell software. Or ask Claude or ChatGPT to create the drafts through Sellfy's MCP server.
5. Import your email list
If your buyers went to a mail service like Mailchimp, export your list from there. Keep only people who agreed to hear from you, and upload a one-column CSV under Email marketing > Import on a paid plan.
6. Swap your buy buttons, then close Payloadz
Replace Payloadz's button code on your site with Sellfy buy buttons or an embedded store, and ask subscribers to re-subscribe. Then go to Account > Close Account, or ask support to close it.
Here's why you should go with Sellfy
Selling on social media
If you can share it, you can sell it! It's time to reach your customers where they actually hang out — social media. No matter if it's posting a link, embedding a store on Facebook, or selling through YouTube cards, we've optimized our platform for selling on social so it's as easy as 1, 2, 3.
Sell downloads through your website
Hosting your products is a great way to maximize the effectiveness of your website. Using our embed functionality, all you have to do is copy and paste a snippet of code to sell from your own site, be it WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, or anything in between.
Professional digital product delivery
Sellfy is all about instant gratification! We've streamlined our product delivery so that it's fast and reliable even for very large files. Pair it with our top-notch digital file security and you have a one-stop storefront for all your digital files. Try us out and see for yourself!
Frictionless checkout
Sellfy has made losing customers at checkout a thing of the past! Our optimized and streamlined checkout process makes it a breeze for customers to buy your products quickly and easily. With its clean and minimalistic look, you'll never miss out on a sale again.
Built-in marketing tools
Why pay for separate tools? So many creators spend thousands of dollars on marketing apps when they could use the ones built into Sellfy. Email marketing and discount codes come with every plan, and upselling is included in the Business plan.
Advanced digital file security
Sellfy is a platform made for digital products, so you know we use only the best security measures to keep your products safe. With features like limited download attempts, unique download links, and PDF file stamping, you know your products are in good hands.
Here is what other creators say about Sellfy
"For FGD Sellfy is everything! We have all our assets exclusive here nowhere else. This helps us to keep everything in the same place and not spread around the web, Sellfy provides all the services we need!"
"One of the things I really appreciate about Sellfy is I know exactly where my source of sales traffic is generated (Facebook, Twitter, Soundcloud, etc). I can track sales on a daily / monthly basis. It also tracks buyers and allows me to reach out directly (through Sellfy's email tool)."
"Sellfy is easy to use, logical and quick. The constant upgrades and efforts to make this platform better are what really convince me. Sellfy more or less offered everything I needed while other platforms didn't."
