Is there an estimated timeframe for round 2 of Webflow that will include the ability to sell digital and downloadable products? If not, is there a workaround to set up a store in the meantime, such as treating the digital product as physical and manually sending it via email with a customized message? Please advise.

Webflow already has e-commerce functionality available, allowing you to create and set up an online store. However, at this time, Webflow's e-commerce features primarily focus on physical products, and the ability to sell digital and downloadable products is not yet available natively within the platform.

Webflow has mentioned that they are actively working on improving their e-commerce capabilities, and the ability to sell digital products may be introduced in future updates or versions of the platform. I cannot provide a specific timeframe for when this feature will be released.

In the meantime, there are some workarounds you can consider to set up a store for selling digital products on Webflow. One option is to treat the digital products as physical products and manually deliver them via email with a customized message. This approach involves creating a product in your Webflow store and configuring it as a physical product. When a customer purchases the digital product, you can manually send them the digital file or a download link via email, including any necessary instructions or personalized messages.

To handle the purchase process, you can utilize a third-party payment gateway, such as Stripe or PayPal, which integrates seamlessly with Webflow. These payment gateways provide options to customize the purchase confirmation emails, making it easier to include the digital product download link and any personalized messages.

Furthermore, you can enhance the purchase experience by incorporating a secure digital delivery service. These services can automatically handle the delivery of digital products once a purchase is completed, eliminating the need for manual intervention. Some popular options include SendOwl, Easy Digital Downloads, or Gumroad.

Although these workarounds may require some manual effort and additional setup, they can help you create a functional digital product store using Webflow until native support for digital products becomes available.

Please bear in mind that Webflow's features and updates may have evolved since this post, and it's always recommended to refer to Webflow's official documentation or contact their support for the most up-to-date information on e-commerce capabilities.
