Digistore24 vs JVZoo (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Digistore24 if

• Fits if you sell a course or info product and want affiliates to promote it
• Works for sellers who prefer one per-sale fee to a monthly plan and want tax and VAT handled for them

Look elsewhere if

• Watch out: 2.9% + $1 is a starting rate, and the final one depends on product type, traffic source and volume
• Pricey if you sell low-priced items, since the flat $1 is a big slice of a $10 sale
• Watch out: payout fees are $2.50 for ACH and $40 for an international wire
• Skip it if you want a phone app for running the store, as the only app is for analytics
