Questions.
Which plan includes books?
Books are on Pro and Max. Free lets you build your site and publish, and you can upgrade the day your book is ready.
What format do buyers get?
A PDF. It is attached to the purchase email, sent as a download link and kept in the buyer's account.
Do I need my own payment account?
Yes. You connect your own Stripe, PayPal, 2Checkout or Safepay account, or take bank transfers. Money goes straight to you, and Brandidos adds 0% per sale on top of your gateway's normal fees.
Can I stop download links being shared?
Yes. In Settings, make emailed links expire after a number of days or a number of downloads. A buyer signed in to their account is never limited.
Can I run a launch discount?
Yes. Create a coupon with a percentage or fixed amount off, an optional expiry date and a usage limit, and share the code.
Can someone pay for the same book twice by mistake?
No. Checkout tells a buyer when they already own the book.
