The #1 Way to Sell Digital Products with WordPress
We help you sell software, eBooks, templates, music, and more — without the complexity of
tools designed for physical goods.
Easy Digital Downloads is the leading WordPress eCommerce plugin built exclusively for digital creators.
Most eCommerce platforms were built to ship physical products. That means you’re stuck with features you don’t need — shipping calculators, inventory management, warehouse integrations — and missing the ones you do.
Easy Digital Downloads was purpose-built for digital creators from day one. Whether you’re selling a single PDF or running a full software licensing business, EDD gives you exactly what you need and nothing you don’t.

Supporting Creators and Small Businesses is in our DNA
Easy Digital Downloads was born in 2012 out of a simple frustration: there wasn’t a good way to sell digital products with WordPress. The existing tools were either overly complex general-purpose eCommerce platforms or too basic to run a real business.
What started as a focused solution for digital downloads has grown into the most trusted digital eCommerce platform in the WordPress ecosystem — powering businesses in 187 countries, processing tens of millions of orders, and powering the creator economy.
Today, Easy Digital Downloads is part of the Awesome Motive family of products, which includes WPBeginner, WPForms, OptinMonster, MonsterInsights, and many more. Together, our tools power millions of WordPress websites and help small businesses compete with the big guys.
We know a thing or two about building products that customers love, and we bring that same commitment to every release, every support interaction, and every line of code in Easy Digital Downloads.
