Question about Zen Cart

**slackermoney** · 2 Dec 2007, 11:10 AM

Not sure if this is the right topic or not, but I've been unable to find an answer to a question.

I'm kicking around using Zen Cart for the first time, but before I do, I'd like to know is it possible to use ZC as an Ebook storefront only? As in only virtual products, no physical?

You can set products as either physical or virtual.

Virtual products can be download from your website after customers have purchased them.

So, yes - Zen Cart would be perfect for your ebook store! :)

Yes and there are options on how many downloads customers can have as well as restricting the downlod period. I don't use it on my site but I read all about it in the manual, well worth the money, explains everything, espeically product attributes.

You really need to read the Tutorials/FAQs on Downloads vs Virtual Products ... they are not the same thing ...
