Shopify publishes a free app for this and it does the obvious part: attach a file to a variant, send it when the order is paid, cap how many times it can be downloaded. If all you need is a PDF in an inbox after payment, you are already finished and the rest of this list is for somebody else.

What the rest of the category sells is control after delivery, which the native app has nothing to say about: streaming instead of handing the file over, stamping a document with the buyer's name, expiring a link, issuing licence keys, and a download page that looks like your store. There is also a tax trap worth knowing before you list anything. Switching a product off as a physical item removes shipping and leaves its tax setting completely untouched, because those are two separate fields, and customers in the European Union owe VAT on digital goods regardless of where you sell from.

What to look for in a Sky app

Delivery, or what happens afterwards: These are two different purchases. Getting the file to the buyer is solved and free. Stopping that file being forwarded to a hundred people, or knowing who leaked it, is the thing you are actually paying for, and it is worth being honest with yourself about whether you will ever act on it.
How big the files are: Native hosting has a ceiling per file, which is generous for documents and not for video. Once you are selling course footage the question changes from hosting to streaming, and that is a different kind of app with a different cost structure.
Whether it replaces the free app or sits beside it: Several of these are built to run alongside Shopify's own downloads app rather than instead of it, which is fine but means two places where fulfilment can be configured and two places to look when a customer says nothing arrived. Find out which arrangement you are signing up for.

What does the Built for Shopify badge mean?

Built for Shopify
Built for Shopify is the highest level of recognition Shopify awards an app. To earn the badge, an app must meet Shopify's standards for safety, performance, ease of use, and proven usefulness: it cannot slow down the admin, storefront, or checkout, must integrate seamlessly into the Shopify admin, and must demonstrate quality through installs, reviews, and ratings over time. When comparing similar apps, preferring ones with the badge is a safe default. Learn more about the Built for Shopify badge →
