I will prefer payhip because it looks very advance and it has a lot of function that are limited on gumroad

[@zahrarina-f5q]

Like what

[@cripz1436]

I'll be using both to sell on with my digital products. I think its better to have a wider reach than just on one platform and both of them are pretty amazing. I don't mind the fees on either since my main objective is simply cash flow.

[@AureliusTjin]

It doesn’t work that way unfortunately. The platforms do not promote your products for you. You would still have to market your product in order to get sales. Although Gumroad has a Marketplace, it still does not mean sales will come in automatically once published.

[@SupremeKid98]

Update?

[@DaleLRoberts]

I love Payhip. Gumroad is nice, but I agree with you that Payhip is just a bit better.

[@carolinemortlock7078]

Thanks for the info. Great video! I have 3 questions: 1) Do both Payhip and Gumroad take care of collecting and remitting taxes that customers pay (like marketplaces like Etsy do) so we don't have to worry about having to work our how to pay taxes when selling digital products internationally? 2) What would our shop url look like using both platforms as obviously we can't use our own domain name? 3) If we decide to make our own website later using Wordpress for example, can both Payhip and Gumroad be integrated with our wordpress website so that when a customer buys a digital product, the buy now button and checkout process on our website takes them through either Payhip or Gumroad so that they still take care for payments and tax responsibilities (which is the main reason Im wanting to use them)? Thank so much!

Hi there and “Thank-You” for you time. When I sell my 47 page ebook, can my purchasers pass it on to other people? As my niche is close knit in different expat towns of a foreign country, that is a concern of mine. I appreciate your feedback. “Thank-You”

[@FIREcrochethairstyles]

Hi. Can you do a video on Patreon alternatives? Specifically ones that have more than 2 ways (Stripe & PayPal) to pay out their creators... Being Nigerian, it's been super hard to find a reoccurring subscription model that offer more payout methods than just Stripe & PayPal... Both of which are unavailable to most African countries ☹️

[@growwithalan]

The Payhip membership option isn't as you showed, I think you pulled up the course details. The membership option does not have curriculum etc. and is very limited as to how you can layout posts in the membership itself (they can't even be ordered in any way). The only way around is to set things up as a course and then market it as a membership.

[@AureliusTjin]

Thanks for spotting that. My bad with the wording. I meant the Course option when adding a new product. I’ve never used the Membership option in Payhip and not a fan of it because of reasons you noted. With the Course option, you can setup subscription plans to charge a recurring. Content can be created in different sections and lessons and rearranged the way you want.

[@quia-kia]

Payhip. I'm starting out and i was noticing how you were feeling Payhip more. So i'm sold on it and i really would like to get my mom ebook out there and hopefully other products as well.

[@AureliusTjin]

Yes, fees are lower with Payhip which is a big factor for your bottom line.

[@pramodgeorgehq]

One of the biggest value that Gumroad gives me is the ability to email people directly after each purchase, allowing me to upsell with content. Not sure how I'd do this natively with Payhip?

[@Gustaiiv]

I just set up payhip because of you. Thanks.

[@AureliusTjin]

Fantastic!

[@theaishaejaz]

Great video, Aurelius. I’m sold on Payhip & looking forward to setting up. Does Payhip allow you to set up your own affiliate programme?

[@AureliusTjin]

You sure can. There’s an affiliates option in your account.

[@dalianodaliano7114]

If I want to sell 30 png together on payhip. should I put them in a folder and upload the folder or what should I do ?

[@ElinWinblad]

Does gum road charge fee if the product is a free download?

[@PochoNieves]

Gumroad Is more popular because it came out first. Is that simple...payhip is a lot better but needs to pay the due of time and keep providing a better product.

[@v_r_]

I guess Payhip did away with the curriculum and certificate features inside of a membership. I don't see them there anymore. That sucks!

[@mahmoudmatar1196]

Is it permissible to open more than one store on Gumroad?

[@NuWaters]

I've been doing my research on both for the past week and this video helped me to make my decision - Payhip for me! Thank you for the great explanation and visual presentation of both.

[@mingingerlondon]

I prefer Payhip. Thanks

[@edwardrapka1073]

Sadly, because of Aurelius' editing style his video is almost unwatchable. He runs everything together at a breathless pace, jump cutting every sentence to slam it into the next, which doesn't give you time to process an idea before smashing on into the next. Be prepared to hit "pause" frequently, especially if you want to take notes...

[@WakeyWakeyEggsandBakey]

You can slow the playback speed down using the settings menu on the video screen. I know it's not a perfect fix but I do it all the time, either speeding up or slowing down speed to fit my own brain's retention ability lol.

[@rebirthedsoul3185]

Thank you so much for this video 🙏🏻 my question is payhib themes either for digital products or physical products there are no themes for both categories my question is can i choose the theme for physical products and make changes into it that i can sell digital and physical products with the same theme? Thank you again 🙏🏻❤

[@avee4295]

Thanks for an informative video. I just set up my Payhip account prior to your video and I do like it this far. It is quite similar to Beacons Ai which I had for a brief time. If I get more established I think I'd return but Payhip seems really credible.

[@glenjones4009]

Another informative video about payhip by Arelius.. Etsy has become to out of touch. And it has been hard to find an appropriate replacement. I will try payhip. Thanks Arelius.

[@iRevCMD]

Payhip...Thanks for sharing this information!

[@Hollera8]

How about a comparison with Lemon Squeezy? As no videos exist on your channel from the search I just did...

[@CarFactsCentral]

Can I use it if I’m 14

[@MichaelDooney]

Happy that I found this and that you're promoting Payhip, I'm always hearing about Gumroad and until your video's had never heard of Payhip. I recently set up my course with Kajabi after buying into the all in one package and what it is able to do. But at this early stage it's more power and expenses than I need. Payhip look like a good starting point for offering courses and coaching, then branching out from there once it's more established.

[@lgordon718]

Your Website is amazing nice and clean how did you build?? And I think I'm going to try both in the beginning but I agree I believe Payhip might be the winner in the End.

[@SuperFoodParents]

It was pretty obvious from the beginning where your preference was😂 I agree, clear winner considering the terms, capabilities, and interface of each

[@AureliusTjin]

Yes, though I prefer Payhip, whichever platform that works for you is the right platform 👍

[@myadvisor]

Although payhip is a more complete option, and what I used at first, I continued with gumroad because it handles taxes as a merchant of record (I work in Greece with Greek clients and I do not want to invoice each and every customer separetely). Also, in my opinion, a lump sum bank deposit once a week or once a month is better than real time deposits in PayPal. It is easier to manage your revenue and taxes

[@xNWDD]

I'm considering options and saw that PayHip actually states > However, Payhip can take this burden off your shoulders and take on full responsibility for complying with these laws. If your customer is buying a digital product in the EU/UK we act as your reseller which means we're 100% responsible for digital EU/UK VAT. Since merchant of record is the same as reseller I don't see any difference? Perhaps they added this recently?

[@myadvisor]

@@xNWDDthank you for that! Maybe it is a recent addition to their business model. I ll take a look and ask them again, because in our last conversation they replied that taxes and invoices are on me :)

[@Telematics411]

@@myadvisor - Did you ever find out if Payhip covers taxes and invoices now? Thanks for any feedback you can provide. :)

[@Baracscity]

Honestly I love the aesthetics of gumroad, its more modern and up to date and payhip does seem a bit outdated. But besides that as was said in the video payhip sounds better

[@renaldsunset]

Very nice video , great job ! I’m trying to SELL my EBOOK. It’s already on amazon but I get a lot of complaints from people being unable to buy my ebook. Oh and I’m French, which one is better ?

[@dp55822]

Big difference: Gumroad pays out 1 time a week, so all sales are collected and paid out together. Payhip pays each sale directly. I am from Germany and there all sales as an invoice at the tax advisor for the taxes must be submitted and printed. (I believe this is also the case in other EU countries). As an example: If I have in a week 100 sales. Gumroad only 1 invoice (print) because the sales are collected and only 1 time paid out. And with Payhip I have to print/create 100 invoice because each sale is paid out individually. Its a huge difference in a month: Gumroad: 4 invoices / Payhip: 400 invoices create/print! So Gumroad wins...time saving 😀 Greetings

[@AureliusTjin]

Thanks for touching on the payout point. Agree that convenience may be a deciding factor. Depending on your business’ revenue though, fees might be a drawback with Gumroad as they charge 10% fee /transaction. I would consider, Lemon Squeezy which I recently did some research on. It’s 5% + $0.50 /transaction. They also act as an MoR (Merchant of Record) where they collect the payments and payout sellers (twice a month).

[@martinfitzpatrick697]

This isn't correct. Payhip (like Gumroad) acts as the merchant of record for EU sales so are responsible for remitting the VAT for those sales for you. There's no difference from an accounting perspective whether you submit the resulting payments individually or in bulk. It's quite possible your tax advisor just doesn't understand what a MoR is (many don't).

[@dp55822]

@@martinfitzpatrick697 Hey, for us, every incoming payment that is received by paypal, for example, must be created as a single invoice. So 100 times cash receipt = 100 individual invoices. With Gumroad, all incoming payments are collected and paid out 1 time per week. So only 4 invoices per month.

[@martinfitzpatrick697]

​@@dp55822 I understand your accountant/tax advisor may be asking for that, but that could be an accountant problem, not an accounting one. I'm not in Germany, but have done this in both the UK & NL without issue. It is clearer with Gumroad (single payment source) but from an accounting perspective they are identical -- post tax payments. Edit: Of course, don't take tax advice from a random person on KZbin. If you're happy with how your setup works, keeping doing that.

[@mariabarakatrahme7394]

Hello Aurelius! I love your videos - they're so informative. I'm not sure if you'll see this comment, but I wanted to get your opinion on choosing between Payhip or Learning Lab for an online business that sells digital products. Which one do you think is better? Thanks!

[@AureliusTjin]

Wish I could share my input on that but I don’t have any experience with Learning Lab. But based on the name of the platform, it sounds like it’s more focused on eLearning and online courses. So it will depend entirely on the product you’re selling. It doesn’t go to say that Payhip can’t host online courses too as demonstrated in this video.
