In this help article, we’ll show you how to include downloads with plans, sell downloads individually, and explain how members access their purchased files.

​
Include a download with a plan

To begin, go to Content → Downloads and then click Create Download.
Name the download, choose the file from your computer, and add a description.
In the Which plans should include this download? section: select All plans to include the download with all current and future plans. Alternatively, choose Select from your list of plans to assign it to specific plans.
Then, click Create Download. You can also configure this for each plan via Revenue → Plans → Select a plan → Included content and click Edit.

​
Sell a download

Go to Content → Downloads, then click Create Download.
Name the download, choose the file from your computer, and add a description.
Toggle on Available as a standalone purchase and set the price.
Enter a redirect URL if you want customers to land on a specific page after buying this download.
If you have taxes enabled, you can toggle off tax collection for the download.
You also have the option to require a mailing address during checkout.
Copy the purchase link and add it to your website or newsletter.

How members access downloads

Members can access all their downloads when they log in to their account. For ease of use, they can sort them alphabetically or by the date they were added.
You can use our WordPress shortcodes to directly link to downloads on your site. Alternatively, you can use the URL below, but make sure to replace the last four digits with the ones for your download found in the Downloads tab.
When a member clicks a download, Memberful generates a temporary link that expires after 10 minutes. This helps prevent unauthorized sharing. Members can click the download link again to generate a new link if needed.
