The Problem
Selling Digital Files Shouldn't Require a Store
Creators shouldn't need to build a product page or configure a full ecommerce platform just to sell an eBook or PDF. Existing tools are designed for stores — not for a single download link.
-
Too much setup for small digital products
-
Complex platforms for simple file downloads
-
Manual file delivery after payment confirmation
Full storefront required
Just to sell one PDF, eBook, or template
Manual payment then send
PayPal request → wait → manually send download link
Files can be shared for free
Public download links can be forwarded by anyone
The Solution
Turn Any File Link Into a Paid Download
Upload your file to any cloud storage, then place the download link behind a LinkGate payment gate. Users pay first, then get the file.
Upload your file
Upload your eBook, PDF, or asset to Google Drive, Dropbox, S3, or any cloud storage.
Copy the download link
Get the download URL from your file host. Any direct link or sharing URL works.
Create a LinkGate
Paste your file URL, set a price, and your paid download link is ready in seconds.
Share and earn
Share your LinkGate URL. Anyone who pays gets instant access to the download.
Perfect For Selling Digital Products
From eBooks to design assets — if it's a file, you can sell it with a link.
eBook Download
Sell your eBook directly via a link. Upload to any host, gate it, share it — done.

Digital Asset Library
Photo packs, video clips, audio loops — any hosted digital file you want to monetize.
