The 10 best E-junkie alternatives in 2026

1. 1.ByteSellOur pick

   Keeps the part of E-junkie worth keeping, which is that buyers pay you and no share is taken, then adds what the delivery tool never had: recurring billing, coupons, upsells, affiliates and analytics on the same account. The lowest plan is free rather than eight dollars.

   Pros

   • Nothing taken per sale, and the entry plan costs nothing either
   • Recurring billing, coupons, upsells and affiliates included on every tier
   • Buyers pay your own Stripe, PayPal or crypto wallet with no balance in between
   • Pro at $29 raises storage to 50 GB with single files up to 10 GB

   Cons

   • Matching E-junkie’s storage headroom means $29 a month against $8 to $20 today
   • Free keeps only seven days of analytics history and one saved funnel
   • The free plan holds 500 MB and will not take a file over 50 MB
   • Licence keys are strings you upload in advance, with no activation API

   E-junkie would take, in a year

   $96and ByteSell would take none of it

   On a $50 product selling 50 times a month, on its $8 a month plan. ByteSell is 0% on every plan including the free one, and the buyer pays your own Stripe, PayPal or wallet, so nothing is held in the middle.

   Free plan, no card, keep every cent of every sale.

2. 2.Shoprocket

   Made for a website that already exists, so the checkout goes inside your pages instead of sending buyers elsewhere. It takes no cut on any tier and settles into your own gateway immediately. Recurring products and your own domain both begin at $79 rather than at the $29 entry.

   Pros

   • Zero transaction fee across all three plans, with unlimited sales volume
   • The embed is a single line of code on any page you already publish
   • Payments land in your own Stripe, PayPal or PayU account instantly
   • Digital delivery includes an auto-emailed pool of licence keys

   Cons

   • Recurring products need the $79 Business plan, not the $29 Starter
   • Connecting your own domain also starts on that $79 plan
   • Nothing on the site documents gated Discord or Telegram access

3. 3.SendOwl

   The other long-running delivery tool, and it works the way this one does: no percentage, no funds held, and every capability present on the cheapest plan. Launch is $39 a month and allows 5,000 orders and $10,000 of sales, counted over a rolling year with automatic upgrades.

   Pros

   • No percentage on any plan, and no funds are ever held
   • Every feature appears on the entry plan, including subscriptions and affiliates
   • A chargeback costs nothing, and download access is simply withdrawn
   • Buyer email campaigns run from the same dashboard as the checkout

   Cons

   • Launch is $39 a month and stops at 5,000 orders and $10,000 of sales
   • Crossing either line upgrades the plan automatically rather than warning you
   • Bandwidth past the allowance costs a dollar per gigabyte
   • Tax is tracked but never remitted, so that work stays with you

4. 4.Payhip

   The way to avoid a monthly bill altogether while getting a storefront that looks like this decade. Payhip takes 5% of each sale on its free plan and gates nothing behind a tier, so a quiet catalogue can sit there indefinitely. It also handles US sales tax and EU VAT.

   Pros

   • Nothing monthly on the free plan, which carries every feature Payhip has
   • Unlimited products and unlimited revenue on that same free tier
   • US sales tax and EU VAT are both collected and remitted for you
   • Payments deposit into your own connected processor immediately after each sale

   Cons

   • The free plan takes 5% of each sale, and $29 Plus still takes 2%
   • Only the $99 Pro plan brings the rate down to zero
   • In practice a seller connects PayPal plus one other processor
   • No annual pricing is published anywhere on the Payhip site

5. 5.Ko-fi

   Cheap in the same spirit, with no subscription to pay and 200 GB of storage on the Contributor tier for up to 1,500 shop items. The trade is 5% on anything you sell rather than are tipped, and the page stays on Ko-fi, since a domain of your own is not offered.

   Pros

   • No subscription needed, and money moves into your PayPal or Stripe immediately
   • Contributor, where new creators start, carries 1,500 shop items and 200 GB of storage
   • There is no payout minimum and no waiting period
   • The supporter email list downloads whenever you want it

   Cons

   • Selling anything costs 5% on both free tiers, tips excepted
   • Reaching zero means Ko-fi Gold at $12, which Ko-fi itself discourages
   • There is no custom domain, so the page stays on Ko-fi
   • The creator is merchant of record, so refunds and disputes come back to you

6. 6.Sellfy

   A proper storefront rather than a buy-now button, taking no cut and paying into Stripe or PayPal instantly. Starter is $39 and allows $10,000 of annual sales before a 2% charge starts on every order. It is also the only entry here that prints and posts merchandise.

   Pros

   • Zero transaction fee on all three of the published tiers
   • Print-on-demand goods sit in the same storefront as the files
   • Sellfy states outright that the seller is merchant of record
   • Starter carries a 10 GB file ceiling and unlimited products

   Cons

   • Starter is $39 and allows only $10,000 of sales a year
   • Every order beyond the ceiling picks up 2% until you upgrade
   • The 14-day trial cannot take payments, so nothing sells while you look
   • Only Stripe and PayPal connect, with no crypto option

7. 7.SellApp

   Built for accounts, licence keys and gated community access, which is a different business from selling ebooks. Nothing is due up front and 3% of each sale is billed the following month. Crypto goes to your own wallet, and clearing the fee entirely costs $199.99 a month.

   Pros

   • No charge up front, with the 3% invoiced at the start of the next month
   • Paid Discord, Telegram, Slack and WhatsApp access is native
   • Automated software delivery and licence creation, with webhook-based fulfilment
   • Crypto payments route to a wallet that you control

   Cons

   • Three percent of every sale on the free Standard tier
   • The only plan without that fee costs $199.99 a month
   • Its terms make paid fees non-refundable and permit termination without cause

8. 8.SellAuth

   Cheaper than almost anything else that charges no percentage, at $9.99 for the first paid tier and free below it. The catch matters for a downloads business: the largest file it will deliver is 10 MB on the free plan and 100 MB on either paid one.

   Pros

   • Zero on the free plan and both paid ones, from $9.99 a month
   • An embeddable checkout and API access on every tier
   • VPN, Tor, country and ASN blocking on the paid plans
   • Scale at $29.99 brings a reseller panel and up to fifty team members

   Cons

   • Ten megabytes is the largest file the free plan will deliver
   • Paid plans stop at 100 MB and go no higher at any price
   • The free tier is limited to fifty products and a hundred files
   • No merchant of record or payout terms appear on the pricing page

9. 9.Lemon Squeezy

   Worth opening if what you sell is software and the tax paperwork has become the annoying part. It is merchant of record in every market and its licence API activates, validates and deactivates keys. The charge is 5% and 50 cents on the order total including tax.

   Pros

   • Handles VAT and sales tax worldwide as merchant of record
   • No monthly charge at all, whatever the month brings
   • Real licensing endpoints with named instances, activation limits and expiry

   Cons

   • Five percent and 50 cents, charged on the order total with tax in the base
   • Refunding a buyer does not bring the platform fee back
   • Money waits thirteen days and pays out twice monthly above $50
   • Eighteen listed countries cannot buy from you at all
   • Signing up now routes through a form recommending other Stripe products

10. 10.Gumroad

    The one name your buyers will already know, with a marketplace behind it and no plan to pay for. It takes a tenth of every sale plus fifty cents, holds each one for seven days, and will not release anything until the balance passes a hundred dollars.

    Pros

    • Nothing to pay monthly, whatever the catalogue does
    • Gumroad carries the merchant-of-record role, so tax is remitted wherever the buyer sits
    • Its Discover marketplace can put a product in front of new buyers
    • The buyer list exports as CSV whenever you want it

    Cons

    • Ten percent and 50 cents come out of every order, at every volume
    • Sales sit in a Gumroad balance for seven days
    • That balance has to reach $100 before any payout happens
    • Sales made through Discover cost 30% rather than the headline rate

    Gumroad fee calculatorGumroad alternatives

Every price above is computed from that platform's own published rates on its entry plan, which is the plan almost everyone is actually on. Where a charge applies only in certain cases, an international card or a payout, the row says so rather than adding it to the headline rate.

Every E-junkie figure and limit is quoted from its own pages, linked in the fee breakdown above.
