How it works in practice

Once installed and activated, the Easy Digital Downloads integration automatically records commissions at checkout. The administrator sets a default commission rate and, if necessary, assigns individual rates to selected products. The system creates a commission record for each purchase, which can be viewed, edited, and exported. In the event of a refund or sale adjustment, commissions can be manually adjusted to maintain billing accuracy.

Easy Digital Downloads Commissions is ideal for applications where financial transparency and efficient billing are essential. This tool is designed for digital stores looking to automate commission management and maintain orderly settlements between multiple sales participants.
