Selling Digital Product Downloads in PhotoBiz ECommerce
You can sell downloadable digital products—such as PDFs, eBooks, presets, audio files, and ZIP folders—through the PhotoBiz ECommerce system. Each digital product can include one downloadable file, and you control how long the file remains available after purchase.
Digital Products in ECommerce are separate from Digital Images in Client Galleries.
If you need to sell individual photo downloads, please see How to Sell Individual Digital Downloads in Client Galleries.
You can also create multiple versions of a digital product at different price points by creating a separate product for each downloadable option.

Offering Multiple Digital Product Download Options
If you want to offer different versions of a digital product at different prices—such as a basic file, extended version, or bundle—you will need to create a separate product for each download option.
Digital product downloads do not support variations or multiple file selections within a single product.

Lightroom Preset – Standard Edition

Each product can have its own file, price, and download settings.
