Digistore24 pricing
How Digistore24's pricing works
Digistore24 has no plan tiers and no monthly subscription. It is the reseller, or merchant of record, so it earns by taking a cut of each sale rather than billing you to use the platform. Affiliates pay nothing, and vendors pay only when they sell. The figures below are the Ireland (MSLW Ltd) reseller; the schedule and currency differ on the US, German and UK entities.
7.9% + €1 per transaction
- The standard rate, rising to 9.9% + €1 if your chargebacks pass 1% of sales
- Refund fee: €0.75 on amounts up to €10, €1 above
- Chargeback fee: €40 with chargeback prevention, €50 without
- Payout fees: €2.50 by SEPA or PayPal in Ireland, €20 to PayPal outside Ireland, €40 by international bank transfer
- Merchant processing, VAT and sales-tax remittance, invoicing, refunds, chargebacks and automated affiliate payouts included
Affiliate commissions come out on top of the platform cut, so model your margin with both in. Subscriptions and installment payments are only available on the US reseller, and an optional download vault costs €0.25 per started gigabyte per purchase.
Is it worth the money?
What works
- It is real and it pays. Digistore24 has run as a reseller since 2012, has processed more than 3 billion euros in sales, and sold over 5.5 million products last year. Reviewers keep returning to the same point: one Capterra user says they "got paid out always in time," and it pays multiple times a week for high volume. As reseller of record it guarantees the payout, which is what matters most for a platform that holds your money before it reaches you.
- A genuine affiliate network is attached. Vendors get access to more than 3,000 vetted active affiliates across 44 niches, and the marketplace lists 8,500-plus offers. Digistore24 vets what it approves, so the pool is a real customer-acquisition channel rather than a link directory.
- The reseller work is done for you. As the legal seller, Digistore24 calculates and remits VAT and sales tax, sends invoices, manages refunds and chargebacks, and pays your affiliates automatically. It lets you sell internationally without registering a business in each country, and its end-customer reputation is tuned to keep cancellations and chargebacks low.
- Real conversion tooling, not just a marketplace. Unlike a bare affiliate network, Digistore24 gives you a customizable cart builder with conversion widgets, one-click and multi-upsells on a single upsell page, and its own split-testing tool for products, prices, pages, order forms and upsells. Signing up is free, affiliates pay nothing, and vendors pay only when they sell.
What to watch
- It is the reseller, so it owns the processor and the customer. Digistore24 is the legal seller and the single processor on every order, so you cannot route your own volume across several merchant accounts the way a high-volume or high-risk media buyer does to spread risk. The buyer is contractually Digistore24's customer, not yours, and you must keep Digistore24 in customer communications, so a seller who wants to own the checkout and the buyer relationship will not get that here.
- The cut adds up, and disputes cost you. The Ireland reseller keeps 7.9% + 1 euro per sale, rising to 9.9% + 1 euro if your chargebacks pass 1% of sales, on top of refund, chargeback and payout fees and the affiliate commission. There is no monthly fee, but high-volume sellers feel the take, so price your offer with all of it built in.
- The dashboard is dated and takes time to learn. Reviewers consistently describe a "steep learning curve," an interface that feels less polished than course platforms like Kajabi or Podia, and confusion configuring upsells and switching between the vendor and affiliate views. Budget time to set it up before you scale on it.
- Buyer complaints attach to the platform, and the rules vary by region. Because Digistore24 is the seller of record, end-customer complaints about billing and unauthorized recurring charges land on its name on public complaint boards, and its systems resolve them rather than yours. Fees, currency and even features differ by reseller entity, and subscriptions and installments are only available on the US reseller, so confirm the schedule for your region.

Does Digistore24 have a free trial?
