Introduction
SimplerSuite Access is an entitlements and digital file delivery app for Shopify. It lets you grant customers access to products, content, and downloadable files — automatically on purchase or manually via API.
Why SimplerSuite Access?
- Automatic entitlements — Grant access when a customer buys a product, cancel when they refund
- Digital file delivery — Upload files and let customers download them with signed, time-limited URLs
- Flexible access types — Permanent, time-limited, usage-limited, or subscription-linked entitlements
- Full REST API — Build custom storefronts, portals, or integrations with scoped API keys
- Webhooks — Get notified when entitlements are created, revoked, or when files are downloaded
- Bandwidth & storage tracking — Built-in usage metering with plan-based limits and overage billing
- Shopify Flow — Automate entitlement workflows with triggers and actions
How it works
Automatic (order-based)
When a customer purchases a product you’ve configured, an entitlement is automatically created. If the product has digital files attached, the customer can download them from the customer portal or via your custom frontend.
Manual (API-based)
Use the REST API to create, revoke, suspend, or reactivate entitlements programmatically. Useful for integrations, migrations, or custom business logic.
