admin andrew apply bonus book button buyer buyers cart checkout code copy deter discount download ebook ebooks email feature file format free host link method page password pdf price product public seller send separate setting sharing site sold sort stamped stamping thank-you-email url

Hi.

I'd like to host a small PDF file that holds bonus material for one of my books that I'll be publishing in print and ebook format. The ebooks will be sold through e-junkie. The print will be print on demand and go through amazon.

Because I have the two different formats, I want to place a link and password for the file in the book so readers who want the extras can go and download them.

Can I do this sort of thing on E-junkie?

If so, how?

Thanks,

- Andrew

I would suggest setting up the bonus PDF as a separate product in Seller Admin, then you can have a "secret" page on your site (not linked from any public page) where you paste the Add to Cart button for that product, so you would publish the URL of that secret page in your book.

Buyers of the printed book would visit that page, Add to Cart the bonus product, and if it's priced at 0.00 (or you could provide a discount code in the book which reduces that product's price to 0.00), they would be able to use our Free Checkout method to provide their name/email and obtain their download link:

You could publish the file's password in the book, or just put it in the thank-you email we'd send each "buyer" of the free bonus book (keeping it more of a secret and allowing you to change the password occasionally). If you're using our PDF Stamping feature to deter file sharing, you could have the Stamper apply a password to each Stamped file, which could even be unique for each buyer's copy:
