    I used PayPal Sales Page script its fully automated and secure, if you are going to sell loads you can go with a fully automated ebook site.

    Thanks Brian

    So your process is:

    Paying with Paypal and let the customer download it directly with a unique url (which expires after downloading) from your website?

    If so do you never experience problems with this? For example a customer who paid but the download failed because of what ever reason because the download is expired you need to help?

    I ask this because I have future plans with some ebooks just wondering what the best and easiest (fully automated - no support needed etc.) sell process is for seller as well customer.

    You can never say never but I don’t recall many problems with the script, the customer also receives an email containing the download URL.

    Thanks Brian

    After receiving the payment, you can send through email or can provide unique url to download.

    Hi,

    What program do you recommend to automate the process of sending download link through email or provide a download link immediately after payment is received through Paypal?

    Hi,
    I can help you with it. You don't need to do anything. It's not any Paypal sales page or such. You'll get the money in your Paypal and the eBook will be delivered to the customer automatically. With my method you can sell many things other than eBook also.

    Thank you.

    I have solved this by using Clickbank.com. The users will be redirected to the download site after the payment is done :)

    You have multiple options:
    a) Using Clickbank. They'll receive a link to a "protected" page to download the materials.
    b) Send them a link, but they can share that link.
    c) Use a random generated page that will expire after 24 hours.
    d) You can use a password protected area.

    And about 241 more methods. But for your convenience, stick to ClickBank.
    PayPal is not that good. If you'll get only one complaint or refund request that is not fulfilled, PayPal will freeze your account for investigation.
    This will never happen with CB.

    Best regards,
    Howard J.

    The fee is 49,95 USD for each product? They dont ask a X percentage of your sales?

    You might want to look at http://www.DeliverMyFile.com

    It's a hosted service, so there's zero technical set-up required. Just upload your file, enter your PayPal information, and it will give you a "buy it now" button to use.

    It's completely pay-as-you-go so there's no set-up fees or monthly fees. Depending on the size of your download file you can get pretty far with the system with a buck or two in the "gas tank".
