How do I sell Procreate brushes online?

Updated

The short answer

To sell Procreate brushes, export your brush set from the Procreate app as a brushset file. Put your file on a selling platform, set your price, and share the store link with your followers. When a customer buys your brush set, they download the file and open it right inside Procreate to start drawing.

How to prepare and export your brushes

Open Procreate on your iPad and tap the brush icon. Create a new brush set and drag your custom brushes into it. Tap the name of the brush set and choose Share. Save the file to your iPad or cloud drive. Procreate saves it as a single brushset file that holds all the brushes you picked.

Make a simple guide to go with your file. Write a short text file or PDF that tells buyers how to install the brushes. Include sample drawings that show what each brush does. You can bundle your guide and your brushset file together in a standard zip folder so buyers get everything in one easy download.

What to watch out for before selling

Always test your files before you put them up for sale. Send the exported file to another iPad or delete and re-import it on yours. Make sure every brush works as expected and keeps its texture, size, and pressure settings. Testing stops unhappy buyers and cuts down on support messages.

Be clear about software compatibility. Tell buyers your brushes only work in the Procreate app and require an iPad with Apple Pencil support. State whether buyers can use the brushes for personal art, commercial art, or both. Clear rules protect your work and keep buyers happy.

What to look for in a selling platform

Selling fees matter a lot when you sell digital files. Look closely at what platforms take from each sale. Some charge high cuts on every purchase or add monthly costs. You want a platform that lets you keep most of your earnings while handling payments smoothly.

Checkout speed is just as important. If buyers have to create an account, verify an email, or fill out long forms, many will leave without buying. Give your audience the simplest path from seeing your art to downloading your brushes.

A simple recommendation for creators

Whop is a strong choice for selling digital files. It charges sellers a small fee plus payment processing for most products, though apps and some categories differ. Buyers can pay by card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and some crypto. Payouts go to your bank account once you reach the minimum balance. For exact minimums, check Whop's help center for the current number.

To make buying even easier, you can install the MKKT app from the Whop App Store. You upload your brush file, pick a price or offer it for free, and get a direct store link. Your buyers can complete their purchase using that link without creating a Whop account.
