Suggestions for a simple, but professional looking checkout/shopping cart software for e-book site?

7 replies
Hi guys, I was wondering if you had any suggestions...

I sell one e-book, that's all. I don't want some kind of checkout setup that looks like it's for a site that sells a bunch of products. Simple and to the point for the one download.

Also, it needs to be able to work with paypal payments pro, and it needs to be customizable. I want to be able to mention that shipping is not necessary because it's for download. Other shopping carts I've looked at haven't allowed me to remove/customize the fields needed.

Thanks guys, but I'm kind of lost now, and this would be awesome help.

    For one single ebook you don't really need a "shopping cart" - just a sales page with a PP button and a (preferably, protected) download page. That's it.

    I suggest you going with OsCommerce. It is free and fully customizable with lots of options and lots of payment processor. But you should be familiarize with it. Beacause it has lots of custoizable options. You will found many free plugins and templates to use with it.

      Are you serious...? Did you even read the OP?

      He wants to sell ONE EBOOK. That's all.

      He also said: "I don't want some kind of checkout setup that looks like it's for a site that sells a bunch of products."

      To which your suggestion is OsCommerce... Netx time read first, before hitting the reply button!

    I am sorry, I overlooked "one".

    It is better you use a simple free wordpress plugin(If you use wordpress of course).

    Here those are:
