"Switched from Gumroad and saved £240/month in fees. That's £2,880/year back in my pocket. The migration took 10 minutes."
"The 0% fees are game-changing. On my last £500 sale, I kept it all. On Gumroad I would have lost £50. Do the math—it adds up fast."
"Set up my store in under an hour. Already made £894 with 49 sales. The analytics dashboard is exactly what I needed to track growth."
Hey, I'm Mo
Founder of PengDrop
Last year I was selling digital products on Gumroad. Every month I watched 10% of my revenue disappear in platform fees.
On a $5,000 month, that's $500 gone. On $10,000? That's $1,000 I'll never see again. It felt like paying rent to someone else for my own business.
I looked for alternatives but they all had the same problem—percentage-based fees that punish you for being successful.
So I built PengDrop. A simple platform with a flat monthly fee and 0% platform fees. Because creators deserve to keep what they earn.
Since launching, 1,000+ creators have switched to PengDrop and collectively saved thousands in fees they would have lost to other platforms.
If you're tired of watching your hard-earned money go to platform fees, give PengDrop a try. Start free with 5% commission or pay $89/year for 0% fees.
