Easy Digital Downloads Custom Prices Addon 1.5.11

That's another great extension for Easy Digital Downloads! The Easy Digital Downloads (EDD) Custom Prices Add-on is designed to give you flexibility beyond fixed pricing for your products.

The primary function of this add-on is to enable Pay What You Want (PWYW) pricing for your digital downloads.

💡 Core Functionality: Pay What You Want (PWYW)

The Custom Prices extension allows you to configure a product so that the customer decides the final price they want to pay at checkout.

Key Features:

Enable Custom Pricing: For any given download (product), you can check a box to enable custom pricing.

Set a Minimum Price: This is crucial for PWYW. You can set a minimum amount a customer must pay. If you don't set one, customers could theoretically pay $\$0.00$ (unless you configure it otherwise in the checkout process).

Donation-Style Sales: This functionality is perfect for accepting donations or for selling content where you want to test market demand with flexible pricing.

Variable Product Support: The extension integrates with EDD's Variable Pricing feature, allowing you to offer PWYW on specific options of a variable product.

Use Cases:

Donations: Setting a minimum price (e.g., $\$1$) and letting customers pay more if they wish.

Tip Jar/Support: Allowing customers to pay extra to support the creator.

Market Testing: Offering a product at a flexible price point to see what the market is willing to pay.

Variable Products: If you have a product with tiers (e.g., "Basic Ebook" vs. "Ebook + Templates"), you could allow the price for the "Basic Ebook" to be customer-defined while keeping the "Ebook + Templates" bundle at a fixed price.

This extension is often included in EDD's higher-tier pricing passes, like the Extended Pass or higher.
