# FetchApp review (2026): is the free plan enough? > Digital download and license key delivery for your own store Checked Nov 13, 2026 ยท graded Nov 13, 2026 by ToolGPA. FetchApp delivers digital downloads and license keys after an order is paid in a store you already run, such as Shopify or a PayPal button. It is not a checkout of its own. Pricing follows the amount of file storage used, with no commission or per-order fee. - **Category:** Selling Digital Products - **Made by:** FetchApp (since 2007) - **Website:** https://www.fetchapp.com - **Runs on:** Web - **Who should skip it:** Tight if you stay free, since Hobby holds 5 MB and has no API. - **Facts last checked:** Nov 13, 2026 ## Pricing As of Nov 13, 2026, FetchApp has a free plan, and paid plans start at $5 per month for 50 MB of storage. - **Pricing model:** Free plan - **Free plan:** Hobby plan: $0 with 5 MB of storage, for trying delivery. Free accounts have no API access. - **Free trial:** None listed. | Plan | Price | What you get | | --- | --- | --- | | Hobby | $0 | 5 MB of storage for trying out delivery.

Prices change, so confirm with FetchApp before buying. ## Key features - **Delivery after payment:** When your store reports an order as paid, FetchApp emails the download links and any license keys to the buyer. - **License keys:** A key can be sent with each purchase. License keys are included on every paid plan, with no per-key charge. - **Expiring links and limits:** Business plans add expiring download links and download limits, and orders can be searched so links can be resent. - **Shopify and PayPal connections:** A Shopify app and PayPal buy-button setup are maintained by FetchApp. A WooCommerce plugin is community-made. - **Own storage:** From the Business tier you can host files in your own S3 or Cloudflare R2 storage and give FetchApp their links. - **API and webhooks:** A REST API lets a developer connect any checkout so that paid orders trigger delivery. ## Good for - Shopify or PayPal sellers who want automatic file delivery - Sellers with large catalogues who would rather pay by storage than by sale - Anyone moving off SendOwl who keeps their own checkout ## Worth knowing - It delivers files only: checkout, payments and tax come from the store or PayPal setup you connect. - The free Hobby plan holds 5 MB and has no API access. - The WooCommerce plugin is third-party, last released 2023-02-28, and BigCommerce is open to existing accounts only. - Billing follows stored files, so a growing library moves you to a higher monthly tier. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. FetchApp delivers files and licence keys after a sale made somewhere else, such as Shopify or PayPal. It does not do checkout, the free plan holds 5 MB, and the price rises with stored files. - **Value for money: B.** Starter is $5 a month, inside the cheapest quarter of digital-product tools ($10), but it holds only 50 MB. 2 GB costs $10. - **Free plan and trial: C.** A free Hobby plan exists, but it holds 5 MB and has no API access, so it is for trying only. - **Features: D.** It delivers files only: checkout, payments and tax come from a store or PayPal you connect, so it needs another product to be useful. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. You connect a store and set up delivery rules. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, with Shopify, PayPal, WooCommerce, Amazon S3 and Cloudflare R2 listed, and an API and webhooks on paid plans.

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 28 of the 50 other tools for selling digital products grade higher. It costs $60 a year. - You could make: Digital downloads: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you. - You could not: It plugs into other products, Shopify, PayPal and WooCommerce among them, and has an API.
