DownGrade 7.1 – Single Vendor Digital Marketplace
Description
DownGrade is a WordPress plugin that helps you run a single-vendor digital marketplace for selling themes, plugins, and scripts. Instead of relying on a scattered catalog, it organizes your items into a curated storefront designed to monetize your content directly from your website. The subscription approach encourages repeat visits and recurring interest from visitors who want ongoing access.
With an easy checkout flow, DownGrade is useful for turning page viewers into subscribers while keeping day-to-day operations simple. It’s also built with a modern tech foundation (PHP Laravel, MySQL, and Bootstrap4 support) to support a clean marketplace experience that fits well into WordPress-driven projects—especially for designers who want effortless management and strong presentation.
