What is a Whop store and how do you sell on it?
Updated
The short answer
A Whop store is an online space where creators sell digital products like files, courses, software, and access to private communities. You set up a page, list your items, and share the link with your audience. Buyers pay with cards or mobile wallets, and you get your money sent directly to your bank account.
How to set up your store
Setting up takes just a few steps. First, create your account and name your store. Next, choose what you want to sell. You can upload digital files, create a course, or set up a paid community. Then, pick your price. You can charge a one-time fee or set up a recurring subscription.
After that, connect your bank account so you can receive payouts. Whop lets your customers pay using credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and some crypto. Once your payment setup is ready, copy your store link and share it on your social channels.
Fees and payouts to watch out for
Whop takes a fee on each sale. For most products, this fee is a small fee plus standard payment processing. Some apps and special categories have different rates. Check Whop's help center for the current number for your specific product type.
Getting your earnings requires a bank account. Whop has a minimum balance rule, so you cannot withdraw your money until your sales reach that amount. Make sure to check Whop's help center for the current minimum balance number before planning your cash flow.
Selling digital files without friction
Whop has an App Store with tools you can install inside your community. If you only want to sell standalone digital files, you can use MKKT. You upload your file, set a price or offer it for free, and get a direct store link. Buyers can purchase your file through that link without creating a Whop account.
Our plain recommendation
Start simple. If you run a membership or community, setting up a full Whop store makes sense. It handles access, member roles, and recurring payments in one dashboard.
If you only have one or two digital downloads, keep things easy for your buyers. Avoid forcing people to jump through extra hoops to grab a simple PDF or template. Pick the setup that gets your product into their hands with the fewest clicks.
