Both let you sell digital files. The difference is the shape of the product: Gumroad is a storefront you set up; Radirn is a single paid link you share. Here’s how they stack up in 2026 (check each platform’s current pricing, as it changes).
The fees
Gumroad charges 10% + $0.50 per sale on its checkout (no monthly fee), plus payment processing of roughly 2.9% + $0.30, and 30% on Discover marketplace sales. Radirn keeps it flat: you keep 90% of your price, with no monthly fee and no separate per-sale surcharge stacked on top.
On a $10 preset pack, Gumroad’s platform + processing fees land near $2, so you keep about $8. On Radirn you keep $9. On a $20 sale you keep roughly $16–17 on Gumroad versus $18 on Radirn. The smaller and more frequent your sales, the more the flat 90% matters.
Setup and speed
Gumroad asks you to build a product page and configure your store. Radirn starts from the file: upload, set a price, get a link — about 60 seconds, entirely from your phone. No storefront to design.
The buyer experience
On Radirn, buyers don’t create an account — they tap your link, pay with a card or wallet, and the file unlocks instantly, with an email link to download it again anytime. Fewer steps means fewer abandoned checkouts. Your files also stay behind blurred previews until payment clears.
Payouts
Radirn pays out to your bank in days, in your local currency, across 119+ countries. A quick identity check keeps your account and payouts secure.
Who should use which
- Use Gumroad if you want a hosted catalog page and discovery through its Discover marketplace, and you’re comfortable with its fee structure.
- Use Radirn if you want the fastest way to sell to the audience you already have — one link, keep 90%, no monthly fee, paid to your bank in days, and no signup for buyers.
- Plenty of creators use both: Gumroad for the catalog, Radirn for the quick per-file link they drop in a story.
