Ebook Store for WordPress

You wrote it. You should get paid for it.

You spent months on your ebook. Then one buyer emails the file to ten friends, someone drops it in a group chat, and it spreads for free while you never see another sale. Ebook Store fixes both halves of that problem on your own WordPress site: it gets you paid, and — with Pro — it stamps every copy you sell, PDF or ePub, with the buyer it was sold to, so a leaked file points straight back to the person who shared it.

No separate storefront. No marketplace skimming a cut of every sale. You keep the payment, the customer, and the file.

Sell your first ebook this afternoon Upload a book, set a price, drop a shortcode on any page — that page is now a working order form, with the cover, description, price and a buy button. Add an optional 3D book preview and a free sample chapter if you like. When someone buys, they get a checkout, a thank-you page with their download links, and an optional delivery email with the file attached or linked. Would you rather they didn’t download at all? Let them read it in the browser instead.

PayPal is built in — PayPal balance, card, eCheck and bank transfer — so you can take money the moment you’re set up. A store-readiness panel walks you through exactly what’s left before your first sale and links straight to the screen that fixes each item. Several order-form designs let the form match your site.

That’s the free version, and it is a complete store: sell ebooks and other digital downloads, take payment, and deliver — for real, not a crippled demo.

The free version sells and delivers. Pro protects and scales. When casual sharing starts eating your sales, or you outgrow PayPal-only checkout, Ebook Store Pro adds the protection and reach a growing store needs. Everything below is what you gain — Pro adds capabilities, it never switches off anything the free version already does.

New in 6.20 — watermark every ePub to its buyer (social DRM) An ePub is a website in a box: unlike a PDF, it cannot be password-locked without breaking the e-readers your customers use. So Ebook Store doesn’t lock it — it stamps it. Every ePub you sell is watermarked with the buyer’s identity right in the pages, recorded again in the file’s hidden metadata, and can carry a scannable QR verification code. You decide where the watermark and QR go: the opening page, the start of every chapter, or a dedicated licence page at the end; top or bottom; a subtle line or a boxed notice.
