Gumroad vs Payhip
Priced at four sizes on whatever each one charges by, the features checked against both pricing pages.
Take Gumroad if you want the cheapest way to sell something today and a storefront that takes a cut instead of a subscription. Take Payhip if you want the cheapest way to sell something today and a storefront that takes a cut instead of a subscription. Payhip is cheaper at every size we price.
What each one actually costs
The real monthly figure at four sizes with the add-ons each platform forces on you included, from the same engine the shortlist quiz uses. The cheaper of the two is marked on every row.
| Gumroad | Payhip | Difference | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 products | $200 | $69 | $131 |
| 10 products | $200 | $69 | $131 |
| 25 products | $200 | $69 | $131 |
| 100 products | $200 | $69 | $131 |
What is actually different
- Payhip lists a website builder where Gumroad does not, which is their own wording rather than something we verified.
No verdict from me yet
I have not used Gumroad or Payhip on camera, so everything on this page comes from their own pricing pages, re-read weekly, and nothing from my own experience. When I review either, it will be here.

Neither, or not sure?
A head to head only helps once you have picked the two. The shortlist asks 8 questions about what you sell and how many students you have, and gives you four picks priced at your own numbers, from all 19.
