The Etsy problem

Why digital creators are leaving Etsy

Fees stacked on top of fees

Etsy's real cost: $0.20 per listing + 6.5% transaction fee + ~3% payment processing + up to 15% Offsite Ads if enrolled. On a $20 eBook, you could pay $5+ before factoring in tax. Weblify's free plan is 8%+$0.50 total — no listing fees, no ad fees.

Buyers remember Etsy, not you

When someone buys from your Etsy shop, they're buying from Etsy. Your shop URL is etsy.com/shop/yourname — you don't own the relationship. On Weblify.me, buyers visit weblify.me/yourname and build a connection with you directly.

Competing in a crowded marketplace

Your digital products compete with thousands of similar listings. Etsy's algorithm decides your visibility, and competitors can undercut you at any time. On Weblify.me, you share your own URL — no competition from other sellers on your page.

FAQ

Questions about selling digital products without Etsy

Yes. No credit card required. Free plan: 8%+$0.50 per sale. Pro ($3/mo): 5%+$0.30 per sale. No listing fees on either plan.

For a digital product: $0.20 listing fee + 6.5% transaction + ~3%+$0.25 payment processing + up to 15% Offsite Ads (if Etsy ran an ad that led to the sale). On a $20 eBook, that could be $4–$7 per sale. Weblify free plan: $0.50+8% = $2.10 on the same product.

Yes — eBooks, PDFs, Notion templates, Canva templates, AI prompt packs, ZIP bundles, audio files. Upload directly (up to 80 MB) or share a private Google Drive, Dropbox, or Notion link that unlocks automatically after payment.

New customers you acquire through your own social media and content will go directly to your Weblify.me page. You can still keep an Etsy shop alongside — many sellers run both — and gradually redirect your audience. Your Weblify.me URL works perfectly in bio links.

Etsy's marketplace brings organic traffic to creators who optimize their listings well. If discovery through Etsy search is a significant source of new customers and you sell physical as well as digital goods, Etsy may still be worth it. For creators who drive their own traffic through social media, Weblify.me keeps more revenue per sale.

Yes. Your Weblify.me page is designed to be placed in your Instagram bio, TikTok, Twitter/X profile, or any social media link section. Photo, bio, social links, and all your products on one URL — unlike Etsy, which is a marketplace not a creator page.
