A marketplace where every new listing ships with $2 of creator-campaign credit
Selling digital products in 2026 has a hidden cost most marketplaces don't tell you about — the marketing tax.
Platform fee (10–15%) + ad spend (CAC often higher than product price) + creator outreach (mostly ghosted) + affiliate tool subscriptions (separate platform, separate attribution). By the time you reach a buyer, half your sale is gone before you calculate it.
I built Peddlum to fix this. It's a digital marketplace where the creator marketing layer is built into the platform itself — not a separate tool you have to plug in.
How it works for sellers:
– List your digital product (Notion templates, ebooks, code, design files, photo packs, video assets) or SaaS tool (webhook fulfillment — no billing system to build) – Keep 90% of every sale. Flat 10% platform fee. No tier games, no monthly subscription. – Post a creator campaign from the same dashboard you list from. Set a brief, budget, and target platforms (TikTok / Instagram / YouTube). – Creators apply to YOU. You approve who fits. They post the content. You pay them per post + commission per sale. – Every new listing ships with $2 of creator-campaign credit auto-attached — so by Friday someone's already promoting your product on TikTok.
Plus, if you don't have a product yet:
Three AI studios are built into the seller dashboard — Media Studio (AI images, video, slide-deck PDFs), No-Code App Builder (real working web/mobile apps from a single prompt), and AI E-Books Maker (outline → chapter drafts → AI cover → publish). Every output one-click lists on the marketplace.
One platform doing the work that used to require five.
Would love feedback from any indie sellers, SaaS founders, or digital makers here — what's working in your current stack, and what would actually make Peddlum useful for you?
