Sellfy vs 2DL: the short version

Sellfy is often chosen as an all-in-one storefront for creators. 2DL is a better fit when you want to keep an owned storefront (your site + brand) and add a dedicated checkout + entitlement + secure delivery backend with stronger access control.

Integration-first storefront

Keep your existing site as the storefront and plug in 2DL for checkout + delivery.

Stronger access control

Entitlements gate delivery, with signed links and refund/dispute-aware revocation to reduce leakage.

Predictable pricing approach

Clear tiered pricing so you can choose your platform-fee tradeoff without guessing effective rates.

Cost model and payouts

When comparing all-in-one storefronts, it often comes down to whether you want a bundled platform or an owned storefront with a specialized delivery backend.
