How Does WooCommerce Deliver Digital Products?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 4:27 pm

WooCommerce is a plugin for WordPress that enables you to turn your WordPress website into an eCommerce store. It is one of the most popular eCommerce platforms on the web, powering over 30% of all online stores. WooCommerce is a flexible platform that can be customized to meet the unique needs of your business.

WooCommerce enables you to sell both physical and digital products. For digital products, you can set up downloadable products, which are delivered to your customers electronically after purchase. In this article, we will discuss how WooCommerce delivers digital products.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that WooCommerce does not deliver digital products itself. Instead, it provides a platform for you to sell digital products. This means that you will need to set up your own delivery system for digital products.

When a customer purchases a digital product from your WooCommerce store, they are taken to the order confirmation page. On this page, they will see a link to download the product they purchased. They can also access their download by going to My Account > Downloads.

When a customer downloads a digital product from your WooCommerce store, the file is first downloaded to their computer, and then opened in the appropriate application for that file type. For example, if they download a PDF file, it will open in Adobe Acrobat Reader.

If you have set up your WooCommerce store to sell downloadable products, congratulations! You are now offering your customers a convenient way to purchase and receive your products.
