File Replacement Policy
Important: When you replace a product's file, all previous buyers automatically get access to the new file.
How it works:
- You upload a new file to replace the existing one.
- All buyers who purchased your product can now download the new file.
- Their Downloads page shows the updated version.
When to Replace vs. Create New Product
| Scenario | Action | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Bug fixes | Replace file | All buyers should get the fix |
| Minor improvements | Replace file | Enhances existing product |
| Compatibility updates | Replace file | Keeps product current |
| Major new features | New product | Charge separately for new work |
| Significant redesign (v2) | New product | Existing buyers keep original |
| Pro/Premium edition | New product | Different product tier |
Keeping Versions Separate
If you don't want previous buyers to get an update, create a new product listing:
Example:
- Original: "3D Character Model"
- Updated: "3D Character Model v2"
This way:
- Original buyers keep access to the original file only.
- The new version requires a separate purchase.
- You control who gets which version.
