Sellfy, a Latvian startup, is offering a drag-and-drop Web app to help users sell digital goods via Twitter and Facebook. By digital goods, we mean products such as design templates, graphics, eBooks, photos, music and such like. You upload your digital goods to your site – this could be a personally hosted website, or somewhere like SoundCloud. You then log-in to Sellfy, enter a desired price and embed the off-the-shelf “Buy Now” Sellfy button on your site. It takes a 5% fee once your product is sold, and it requires a PayPal account for the transaction, though we’re told that credit cards and other payment methods will be added soon.
