Paywall as a service?
Let’s say you have some content (an ebook, a course, a premium video, etc) which you are looking to monetise. Would you be interested in a service that let you host your content, put it behind a paywall, handles payments/access control and charges you either a percentage fee on each sale, or a subscription fee where this is waived?
I know this is pretty similar to gumroad, but the difference here is that you’d be able to author the content within the app itself.
I reckon this might be an alternative to something like teachable for small content creators (where the fees can take a big percentage of your revenue if you’re not selling massive amounts)
Hi! The idea is good, but the market is full of paywall plugins and apps. Even shopify has a paywall app.
To check if there is a demand, you should look for customers who would pay for such an application in pre-seles and then start the implementation.
I am not saying that the application does not make sense, maybe there is an unexploited niche, but you need to ask people who want to introduce paywall.
Thanks, this is great feedback
I think that niche/problem is full of products, not sure if something is new in what your suggesting
I have an idea for you: A paywall to see the paywall.
Now we talking 💰🤙
It does sound good, but sounds like there’s existing competition. Why don’t you launch it, but positioned for a specific niche. I’m sure a bigger feature set will pop into view once you’be been in the space for a while.
Yeah I think it needs to be more specific - going to investigate the existing solutions and see if I can spot a gap. Thanks for the feedback!
