  • Favour listings that specify the license type (personal use, commercial use, extended).
  • Favour listings that create product bundles (template packs, preset collections) for higher value.
  • Favour listings that keep up to date products periodically with improvements to maintain relevance.

Digital Products: frequently asked questions

How does digital delivery work on GeraMarket?
After purchase, buyers receive instant access to download files. Sellers upload their digital files when creating the listing, and GeraMarket handles secure delivery. Buyers can re-download purchased files from their order history.
Can I sell software or apps on GeraMarket?
Yes. You can sell software tools, plugins, apps, and code. Include clear system requirements, compatibility information, and installation instructions. Provide customer support for technical questions.
What digital products sell best?
Printable planners, social media templates, resume templates, Lightroom presets, digital art prints, e-books, and design assets are consistently popular. Products that save buyers time or help them create professional results perform best.
How do I protect my digital products from piracy?
GeraMarket uses secure delivery that limits unauthorized sharing. Watermark preview images, offer personal-use and commercial-use licenses at different price points, and regularly update your products so the latest version is only available through legitimate purchase.
Can I sell courses on GeraMarket?
Yes. You can sell online courses, tutorials, and educational content as downloadable video files, PDFs, or access links. Include clear descriptions of what is covered, skill level required, and total content duration.
Are digital product returns allowed?
