What Is a Digital Product?

A digital product is created, purchased, and received electronically without physical delivery as its main component.

A digital product is an item, resource, or access right received electronically. Examples include e-books, templates, presets, design assets, recorded classes, webinar tickets, software, music, and community-access instructions. Its value does not come only from a file; curation, licensing, updates, support, and the user experience can also form part of the offer.

What Buyers Need to Know

  • The contents and file or access format
  • Required devices or applications
  • Personal or commercial usage rights
  • Whether updates are included
  • How and when the product will be delivered
  • Help, replacement, and refund policies
  • Restrictions on sharing or resale

Digital products are easy to distribute, but that does not make them free from copyright. Sellers must own or license the materials they sell and should not include third-party fonts, photos, music, templates, or software without the appropriate rights. Buyers also need to know when access expires or depends on another platform.
