Easy Digital Downloads Wallet

Description

The Wallet addon adds to Easy Digital Downloads a prepaid balance per customer, allowing each user to deposit amounts into their own account and spend that credit as a native payment method at checkout. The extension creates a dedicated wallet area in the customer panel, records transaction history, and gives the administrator the option to manually credit or debit balance, ideal for digital stores that work with recurring repurchases, refunds as credit, or loyalty programs.

Main Features

• Prepaid balance per customer
  Each user accumulates credit in their own wallet to use for future purchases.
• Dedicated payment gateway
  Enables the option to pay with wallet balance directly at Easy Digital Downloads checkout.
• Detailed transaction history
  Records each deposit, purchase, manual credit, and refund with date and amount.
• Top-up via installed gateways
  Allows customers to add balance using the gateways already configured in the store.
• Administrative balance management
  Admin panel allows manually crediting, debiting, and adjusting any customer’s wallet.

Wallet Benefits

• Faster checkout
  Customers with balance complete the purchase in a few clicks, without re-entering card details.
• Reduced gateway fees
  Single top-ups concentrate processing costs instead of charging per sale.
• Frictionless refunds
  Returns can be converted into wallet credit, avoiding card chargebacks.
• Customer retention
  Prepaid balance encourages customers to return and spend within the store.

Who Is It For?

• Digital merchants selling frequently repurchased products like credits, packs, or licenses.
• Operations preferring to offer internal credit instead of refunding payments via the gateway.
• Businesses with loyalty, bonus, or referral programs that distribute balance to customers.

Designed for digital download operations wanting to move away from the classic transactional model, the Wallet addon transforms customer relationships into something recurring by offering an internal wallet, balance control, and a native gateway integrated with the checkout flow. It is the piece that connects retention, repurchase, and simplified financial management within Easy Digital Downloads itself.
