Editing my review, as Shopify does not allow replies:
I did respond to your emails—"No thank you, please close my account" is a clear response. I'm not interested in a promotional offer, especially one limited to 12 months. You also asked which service I switched to. That’s not information I’m obligated to share. As a provider, it's your responsibility to understand the competitive landscape.
Additionally, your platform only supports hosting up to 250 files, which does not accommodate larger businesses like mine. For years now, my files haven’t been hosted directly on SendOwl—only links have been provided. So no, your service does not offer true file hosting at scale.

Based on the reviews here, it’s clear we’re not the only company frustrated with SendOwl. We've used SendOwl as a backup to Digital Downloads for the past 10 years at our grandfathered rate of $29/month. Recently, we received just 30 days’ notice that our rate would be adjusted to be "in line with similar apps." I didn’t expect the increase to be so extreme — our new rate is $599/month, a staggering 1965% jump. This is nowhere near competitive with other apps. The most frustrating part is that SendOwl won't actually host my files — they only host links to my files. Meanwhile, other apps host the actual content. So not only am I paying more, but I’m getting less compared to what other platforms offer.
Fortunately, this has motivated us to move to self-hosting for a fraction of the cost.
Not a good look, SendOwl.
We appreciate your candid feedback and understand that changes to pricing can be challenging.
This adjustment marks our first price increase in over 15 years. During this time, we've maintained legacy plans to support our long-standing customers. However, to continue providing reliable and scalable services, it became necessary to realign our pricing structure.

While we cannot discuss specific account details due to privacy considerations, we can share that our new rates are competitively positioned. In fact, I personally managed your support tickets and when evaluating the relative fee based on a percentage of sales (note: our SaaS pricing does not actually charge a % of sales or per order fee, it is all inclusive on those regards), our pricing is approximately one-tenth the cost of a key larger competitor.
Regarding file hosting, we offer both hosted and self-hosted options to provide flexibility based on your preferences. Choosing to self-host is a feature available for your convenience, not a requirement imposed by our platform.
We also want to note that we reached out to discuss your specific account details and explore potential solutions. Unfortunately, we did not receive a response to engage in a productive conversation. Our support team remains available and willing to work with you to find a suitable path forward.
We value your business and wish you the best of luck going forward.
Pre-April 2025, I would give SendOwl 5 stars. Worked in the background, very reliable, did everything I needed.
At $15 /month it was great value for money. They probably undercharged, to be honest, so it makes sense for them to revisit their pricing in April 2025.
However, my new plan will be $159/month. This amounts to a 3% cut of my entire online business. No thank you. Not doing it.
I am currently looking for alternatives that will simply deliver digital downloads without charging MailChimp-like fees for it.
Thank you for the effective 5 star review for our underlying service. That mean a lot to us. Regarding the 3 starts on pricing - we believe our new pricing is balanced and fair for the reliability, scalability, uptime, etc. That said, we know it will not work for everyone. Please also note this is the first time in 15 years we have re-priced legacy merchants, and will not do it again. If there is anything we can do to earn your future business, can you pls reach out to us at support@sendowl.com to discuss your options?
I rate the app itself well, but this review pertains to the experience with SendOwl.
Your price hike means me severing ties with your Company, not just because of the price hike, but how it was implemented as well.
Additionally, I reached out and got no response. There are too many options available today to continue this service. Price for me was raised from $15 per month to $89 per month- more than my Learning Platform.
The continued justification for such a steep price adjustment, (such as in this review segment) even in the face of poor reviews demonstrates an unwillingness to really listen to customers.
Hi there – Ben here, COO at SendOwl. I wanted to personally address your comment to clarify a few key points.
It’s simply not accurate to say that you received no response. Our records show that you contacted our support team on April 25th at 9:32am, and we responded within 15 minutes at 9:47am. We always strive to respond promptly and supportively — and in this case, we absolutely did.
We fully understand that pricing changes can be frustrating, especially after many years on legacy plans. That said, we've done our best to give ample notice — including emails and in-app banners — and we continue to offer one of the most cost-effective solutions in the space relative to usage.
We're always here to help if you'd like to revisit the conversation and see if there's a better plan fit. And if not, we still truly wish you and your business all the best.
I was pretty happy with this service and I have used it for almost four years..BUT....they just increased my price from, wait for it, $24 USD per month to $299 US dollars per month.
I run a pretty small business and this is outrageous. I have already shifted to "Easy Digital Products" which is much more affordable and actually easy to use.
Shocking and stupid move by Sendowl.
Hi there – we’re genuinely sorry to hear this is how you’re feeling. We reached out more than five times to try and find a solution tailored to your account, and while we won’t share specifics for privacy reasons, we can say that based on your usage level, the current pricing is still a fraction of what several larger competitors would charge for comparable features and volume.
Our goal has always been to help creators and businesses succeed, and if another platform is doing that better for you right now, we truly wish you the best. That said, we’ve had many customers who’ve tried other options and ultimately returned—we’d be happy to welcome you back if things don’t work out elsewhere.
All the best,
The SendOwl Team
Pure rip off. I used them dir years, but they suddenly changes their price from 15$ to 89$… it seems like they sand 1 email a few weeks ago where they had a small warning about a price increase written somewhere in the long email. This company is ripping you off and what they offer is not better than the other providers, so just use someone else..
thanks for sharing your feedback, even though I'm sorry to hear about your experience.
To clarify: we provided multiple notices about the pricing updates, including emails sent on March 24th and April 24th and multiple in app notifications, outlining the upcoming changes, timelines, and new plan options. Our goal was full transparency, and we gave all users at least 30 days' notice before any changes took effect.
We understand that any price change — especially after many years of consistent pricing — can be frustrating. However, after more than 15 years without major adjustments, we had to realign our plans to better reflect the infrastructure and support required to serve our users today.
Of course, we respect your decision if you find another provider that better suits your needs — and we sincerely appreciate the years you spent with us. If you’d like help reviewing options or understanding your specific plan migration, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team. We're happy to help.
