How do I create a Download for Digital Items in Square Online?

The title of this thread has been edited by a Square Moderator from the original: "How do I create a digital music download item that will be linked to my website?"

I want to embed the square item sale link into my images on my website for selling my music. How do I actually create that item? Ive sold physical items through square before, so I know how to make that happen. But I’m not seeing any info on digital downloads. Thanks!

Hey there @Chessa_Millan.  While Square allows us to create and sell digital products in our online stores, it currently doesn’t have functionality to automatically fulfill those orders.  This is where the Square App Marketplace comes in.  There are a few third-party apps that integrate with our Square accounts and do this for us.  One of those is SendOwl, but there are others.  I’d recommend checking it (and any others) out since most of these apps have free or reduced price trial subscriptions.  

My guess is that Square will eventually offer this functionality, but for now this is your only really solution to remove the manual part of the process.

What do people find helpful if they  are selling digital content and square said they don't have the feature yet to send the content automatically with each sale.
