BookFunnel
Ebook delivery and reader magnets for authors
BookFunnel solves the unglamorous half of giving a book away: getting the file onto a stranger's e-reader without a support email, and adding them to a mailing list on the way. Group promotions with other authors are built in and are where most of its users find readers. Everything is priced by downloads a month rather than by titles.

SendOwl
Digital delivery billed flat, with no cut of sales
SendOwl delivers digital files after payment and prices that on volume rather than on a share of the sale, which is the difference that matters to anybody selling a high-priced product. Every feature is on every plan, so the tier only decides how many orders, how much revenue and how much bandwidth are covered. Products and storage are uncapped at all levels. The flat fee is worse than a percentage for somebody selling very little, and better for everybody above that crossover.
Our note
Work out where the flat fee beats a percentage on your own numbers, because the crossover against a platform charging 5 to 10 percent arrives at a few hundred dollars of monthly sales. Watch the revenue ceiling rather than the order count, since a dear product hits the sales cap long before the order cap.
