Comparison
A Gumroad alternative with no cut of your sales
Gumroad is your checkout and takes a share of what you sell through it. Wixzel Store is a marketplace with a catalog and product pages, where the checkout is your own gateway and the cut is zero.
What Gumroad is
A direct-to-audience storefront for creators selling digital products. Simple, well known, and good at what it does.
Rates and terms change, so check Gumroad's current pricing before you decide. The differences below are structural, not a snapshot of today's numbers.
Side by side
| Gumroad | Wixzel Store | |
|---|---|---|
| Who processes the payment | The marketplace. Buyers pay them; they pay you out on their schedule. | You do. Buyers pay through your own Stripe, Dodo, PayPal, Razorpay, or Lemon Squeezy account. |
| Commission on each sale | A percentage of every sale, deducted before you're paid. | None. Wixzel never touches the money, so there is nothing to deduct. |
| Who owns the buyer relationship | The marketplace. Buyer details are theirs, not yours. | You. The sale runs through your gateway, so the customer record is yours. |
| Payouts | Held and released on the marketplace's payout schedule and thresholds. | There is no payout. The money is already in your account. |
| Discovery | You bring the audience; it's a storefront, not a marketplace. | A browsable catalog with category pages, creator profiles, and indexed product pages, plus whatever audience you bring. |
| What Wixzel charges | - | A one-time fee per product when a listing goes live. No subscription, no per-sale cut. |
