What they are
ConvertKit
Newsletter platform with landing pages, automated email sequences, paid newsletters, and a creator marketplace. Strong choice for selling digital products to a subscriber base. Now rebranded as Kit.
Gumroad
Gumroad is a storefront platform where creators sell digital goods like ebooks, courses, music, templates, and software directly to buyers. It handles payments, file delivery, and basic licensing with minimal setup. Indie creators and solopreneurs favor it for its low friction, though Gumroad takes a 10% $0.50 fee on every sale with 30% fee on discover marketplace sales, which adds up quickly at higher revenue volumes.
