SendOwl pricing in 2026

SendOwl has three main plans. Every plan has the same features. They differ in how much you can sell and how much your buyers can download. SendOwl counts your orders and sales over the last 12 months. Pass a plan's limit and SendOwl moves you up to the next plan.

Downloads use a monthly bandwidth allowance. Go over it and SendOwl bills $1 per extra GB. Here are SendOwl's published plans:

SendOwl planMonthlySales / yearOrders / yearBandwidth / mo
Launch$39$10,0005,00010 GB
Grow$87$36,00025,00020 GB
Scale$159$100,00050,00050 GB

Checked 21 October 2026 on sendowl.com/pricing. Billed yearly, the plans cost $32.50, $72.50 and $132.50 a month. Business plans start at $299/month for up to $200,000 in yearly sales. Bandwidth is from the plan cards; the FAQ on the same page says 20, 30 and 50 GB.

To be fair to SendOwl: it's a full checkout. It takes payments, handles sales tax and EU VAT, stamps PDFs and runs affiliate programs. If you sell from your own website, that's what you pay for.

If you sell on Etsy, Etsy already does the checkout. OrderFiles only delivers the files, for one price: €9/month. No yearly sales limit. No per-GB overage. No tier you're forced to climb as your shop grows.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to switch from SendOwl to OrderFiles?

The email forwarding rule takes about five minutes, with steps for Gmail, Outlook and iCloud in the app. The rest is uploading your files. Your Etsy listings, reviews and search traffic stay where they are.

Can I migrate my existing files from SendOwl?

Yes. Download your files from SendOwl and upload them to OrderFiles. There's no automated migration tool. Files up to 5 GB upload as they are. SendOwl's current plans have no per-file limit, so split any single file bigger than 5 GB into parts first.

Will my customers notice the switch?

They get a link to a download page carrying your shop's name and the product. They unlock it with their Etsy order number or purchase email, then download files one by one or all at once as a ZIP.

What if I need help during the migration?

Our support team is available at support@orderfiles.app. We're happy to walk you through the process and answer any questions.

Does OrderFiles have sales limits or bandwidth overage fees like SendOwl?

No. SendOwl's plans limit your yearly sales ($10,000 on Launch, up to $100,000 on Scale) and move you up a plan when you pass the limit. Downloads past your monthly bandwidth cost $1 per GB. OrderFiles has no sales limit and no per-GB overage: one flat €9/month, with 100 GB of downloads a month as fair use.

Is the €9/month price guaranteed?

Once you subscribe, yes. €9/month is the launch price β€” new customers will later pay €19/month. Your price locks in when you subscribe and never rises while you stay subscribed.

Do I need to change anything on my Etsy or Shopify listings?

On Etsy, one thing: swap the listing's digital file for a small PDF holding your OrderFiles link, so Etsy hands the link over the moment the buyer pays. Title, photos, price and reviews stay the same. For Shopify, connect via our native OAuth integration.
