Description
Free Downloads is an extension for Easy Digital Downloads that simplifies how visitors get free products from your store. Instead of going through the usual cart and checkout, they see a modal window pop-up and can download right away. It is built for offering lead magnets or freebies to engage site visitors.
Key Features
- Simplified pop-up downloads – Visitors get a modal window pop-up for quick downloading, so they can skip the standard cart and checkout process.
- Email marketing integrations – The extension connects with popular email marketing platforms so users can be subscribed to your lists automatically when they complete a free download.
- Configurable post-download actions – After someone submits the modal, you can send them to the Success page, redirect them to a page you choose, or have the file start downloading automatically.
- Required user information – You decide what the modal asks for, including first and last name, account setup, or email verification.
- Custom message display – You can show your own message inside the download modal.
- Lead tracking as customers – Everyone who fills out the download modal becomes a customer record on your store, giving you a list of leads you can review.
Who Is It For
This extension is for Easy Digital Downloads store owners who want to grow an email list by giving away free resources such as eBooks, PDFs, or free trials. It suits anyone offering lead magnets who would rather collect contact details through a quick pop-up than send visitors through checkout.
