Djangify eBuilder
Sell Digital Products From Your Own Website
A Django-based eCommerce platform for creators selling PDFs, templates, courses, and downloadable resources. Available as managed hosting or a one-time self-hosted purchase. No marketplace rules. No revenue cuts. Your customers and your profits belong to you.
Your store. Your data. Your profits.
Djangify eBuilder is a Django-based eCommerce platform you either host yourself or have hosted for you. No marketplace cuts, no third-party access to your customer data, no vendor lock-in. Whether you choose managed hosting or self-hosted, you own your store, your branding, and every sale you make.
This is not SaaS. With SaaS platforms like Shopify or Gumroad, you're renting a seat on someone else's platform — they set the rules, hold your customer data, and can change their terms or pricing at any time. Djangify works differently: your store runs as its own independent instance, and your data belongs to you regardless of which option you choose.
Built for creators selling PDFs, guides, workbooks, templates, digital art, audio, and downloadable resources — Djangify gives you a complete professional storefront without the middleman.
Built on Django
A proven, stable stack. Runs on your own infrastructure for easy deployment and maintenance.
Two Ways to Run It
Managed hosting at £12/month with everything handled for you, or a one-time £79.99 self-hosted purchase for full infrastructure control.
Stripe Payments Built In
Connect your own Stripe account. Payments go directly to you — no platform taking a cut of every sale.
Built For Creators Who Want Ownership
- ✓ Digital product creators selling PDFs, guides, workbooks, templates, audio, or downloadable resources

What You Get
Secure Digital Delivery
Files are delivered securely through a member dashboard after purchase. Customers get order history and access to everything they've bought.
Stripe Payments on Your Terms

Your store comes with a blog and SEO support built in. Drive organic traffic without relying on marketplace search or paid ads.
Clean Admin Area
Manage products, orders, and customers through a straightforward admin interface. Add new products whenever you're ready — no migration needed as your catalogue grows.
Your Domain, Your Brand
Your store runs on your own domain. It looks like a real business website, not a marketplace profile. Your branding, your way.
Customer Accounts & Order History
Customers register, log in, and access their purchases through a member dashboard. You own every customer relationship.
Why Not Just Use Shopify or Gumroad?
You could. Many creators do. But those platforms take a cut of every sale, set the rules you operate under, hold your customer data in their database, and can change their pricing or terms at any time. If they raise fees or shut down a feature you depend on, you feel it immediately — because you're a tenant on their platform, not an owner.
Djangify is fundamentally different. Your store runs as its own independent instance. Your customer data lives in your database. Payments go directly from your customer to your Stripe account. No platform sitting in the middle taking its share.
Djangify sits in the middle — more professional than a PayPal link, far more ownership-friendly than SaaS marketplaces, and entirely yours to run however suits your business.
Two Ways to Get Started
Managed Hosting
£12/month
Everything is set up and handled for you. No servers, no Docker, no configuration. Your store is ready to use immediately. Updates, backups, and maintenance are all taken care of.
This is not SaaS. You get your own dedicated instance — not a shared platform. Your data stays in your database and you could migrate to self-hosted at any point. Think of it like managed WordPress hosting: someone else runs the server, but it's your store.
Get Managed HostingSelf-Hosted
£79.99 one-time
Install Djangify on your own VPS or server using Docker. Connect your own domain. Full infrastructure control — your server, your database, your rules.
Suited to developers and sysadmins comfortable with terminal, SSH, and editing configuration files. You'll need a Linux VPS (DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Linode), Docker, and your own Stripe account.

Try Before You Buy
A live demo store is available so you can experience exactly how Djangify works as a customer — secure downloads, Stripe payments, and customer accounts all running on the same platform you'd be buying.
Register on the demo store, browse example products, and go through the full purchase flow before you commit to anything.
Visit the Demo StoreWhy This Isn't SaaS — And Why That Matters
SaaS means the software runs on the vendor's servers, everyone is on the same shared platform, and your access depends on your subscription continuing. Stop paying and your store disappears. The vendor can raise prices, change their terms, or shut down features at any time.
Djangify is different at a fundamental level. Whether you're on managed hosting or self-hosted, you have your own dedicated instance — not a seat on a shared platform. Your customer data lives in your database. Your store runs independently. The software doesn't depend on Djangify's continued existence to keep running.
The people Djangify is built for have often already felt the frustration of SaaS dependency — platforms that raise transaction fees, change payout rules, restrict customisation, or shut down with little notice. Djangify offers a different relationship with the software running your business. You're not a tenant. You're an owner.
