Take note that the Professional and Publisher Plans come with extra features, such as additional payment gateways, more currencies, PDF stamping and more.

Take note that your payment gateway fees are separate from the fees that Sellfy charges you.

  • Stripe (only available in Pro and Publisher plans).
  • PayPal (PayPal Express is only available in Pro and Publisher plans).[/su_list]

Key Features

Now let’s check to see if Sellfy has the key features you need to grow your business…

One-Time Payments:  Yes.

Recurring Payments: No, so this is not a good fit if you’re selling memberships, subscriptions or similar offers.

Trial Payments: No, this feature is not available.

Dime Sale:  No, this feature is not available.

Coupon: Yes, you can distribute coupons.

Sales Funnel: No, you cannot offer upsells and downsells during the ordering process.

List Building: No, you cannot automatically add your buyers to an autoresponder.

Hide products from the marketplace but still can accept sales: Yes.

Custom IPN to integrate with external/other scripts:  Yes.

Reporting: Yes, you can keep track of your sales statistics.

Unique Features

What makes Sellfy unique from many of the other platforms we’ve reviewed is that it’s a marketplace. This means you have your own storefront where you can showcase all your products.

Another unique feature is that you can give your customers the option either pay full price, or they can get your products for free after they’ve shared your page on social sites. This is a great way to create some viral buzz in your niche.

There’s also the option to see the “name your own” price feature, which is a good way to introduce entry-level customers into your sales funnel.

Digital Files Security

All files are hosted on the Sellfy’s server. These files are only available in the downloadable format, so you cannot offer streaming video or similar options.

Affiliate

Sellfy doesn’t have the advanced or sophisticated affiliate features of other platforms…

JV Profit Sharing: No.

Instant Affiliate Program Setup: No.

Instant Affiliate Payments:  No.

Automatic Bonus Delivery:  No. (This feature is for affiliates who want to offer their own bonuses.)

Platform Integrations/Supported

You can get everything up and running fast by copying and pasting a Sellfy buy button into your sales page. Alternatively, you can send people directly to your Sellfy-hosted storefront or even a product-specific page. You don’t even need your own website if you select this option.

Getting Paid

You’ll receive your money instantly after the purchase is complete. Payments will be made directly into either your PayPal or Stripe account, depending on which gateway you choose for payment processing.

Support

Who Can Use Sellfy

Sellfy is a good option if you’re a beginner who isn’t looking for a lot of features. That’s because Sellfy isn’t very powerful – instead, it focuses on simple, core features such as handling one-time payments securely. This would be a good choice for selling products such as themes, icons, fonts, ebooks and similar products.
