Easy Digital Downloads Custom Prices Addon 1.5.9
Wordpress Plugins Easy Digital Downloads 4.8 (4.6K reviews)
Easy Digital Downloads is a widely used platform for selling digital files, and this extension brings a flexible pricing option to any store built on it. Instead of forcing a single fixed price, the Custom Prices addon lets customers type in their own amount—a practice often called pay-what-you-want. That approach works well for digital products like ebooks, software, music, templates, and creative resources. When a download is configured to accept custom prices, the usual "Add to Cart" button with a set price is replaced by an input field where the buyer enters a number. From there, the order proceeds through the normal Easy Digital Downloads checkout. The store owner receives payment for whatever amount the customer submitted, and the product is delivered through the same automated file download system you already rely on. This makes the addon a natural fit for stores that want to test variable pricing without building any custom code.
A major advantage is the ability to apply custom pricing to individual downloads rather than the entire catalog. Each product in Easy Digital Downloads can be set up independently. You might have one item with a fixed price, another with a completely open price field, and a third with no price at all, all within the same store. That granular control is what makes the addon practical. You decide which products participate in the pay-what-you-want model and which ones remain traditional. For a store selling multiple types of digital goods, this is essential. You are not locked into one pricing strategy across every product. The addon simply adds a set of configuration options for each download, so the decision stays within your normal product management workflow. There is no separate dashboard or extra menu to learn. It feels like a native part of Easy Digital Downloads, which removes the friction often associated with third-party extensions.
Setting up a product with custom prices is done through the download's configuration screen. This is where store owners decide how the price field behaves for that specific item. The addon includes options for configuring a download with custom prices, so you can enable the feature, define any important parameters, and then publish the product. While the exact list of settings is documented on the official Easy Digital Downloads website, the core idea is simple: you turn on custom pricing for a chosen download, and the product page immediately reflects that change. Buyers see a price input instead of a fixed amount. Because the addon comes from the same team that makes Easy Digital Downloads, the integration is clean. It uses the existing plugin structure, so you do not need to edit templates or install additional frameworks. Just upload the ZIP file, activate it, and the configuration options appear where you expect them to be.
A significant point for store owners is that the distributed copy is the exact same ZIP file you would get from the original author. There are no modifications, no rewritten files, and no surprises. If you are already comfortable with Easy Digital Downloads, installing this addon is no different from installing any other extension from the developer. The feature set includes individual download custom prices and configuring a download with custom prices, and the official product page lists the complete capabilities. For anyone who runs a digital store and wants to offer pay-what-you-want pricing on specific items, this addon removes the need for custom development. It brings a proven, supported pricing mechanism right into your existing setup. You maintain control over which products use it, and your customers gain a flexible way to support your work. That combination makes it a straightforward choice for expanding your store's pricing options without changing the platform you already use.
