Description
RS Secure Digital Downloads for WooCommerce replaces default, vulnerable direct file links with an encrypted, expirable token system and provides your customers with a modern, high-tech Customer Asset Vault.
Whether you sell eBooks, software, audio files, design templates, video courses, or digital assets, this plugin ensures your downloadable files stay protected while delivering a first-class customer experience.
🛡️ Core Features:
- 🔐 Secure Link Masking & Encryption: Never expose your raw server file URLs. Download links are generated as dynamic cryptographically-hashed tokens that expire after configurable hours or download limits.
- 💼 Modern Customer Asset Vault: Transforms the standard WooCommerce “My Account > Downloads” tab into a sleek card/grid vault with search, file size badges, and download counter.
- 📄 Dynamic Forensic PDF Watermarking: Stamps customer name, purchase email, order ID, and transaction date directly onto downloaded PDF pages (bottom margin, top margin, or diagonal watermark) to deter piracy.
- 💸 Pay-What-You-Want (PWYW) Pricing: Open pricing engine allowing customers to name their price or tip with suggested price tiers and minimum thresholds.
- ⚡ 100% Digital Cart Checkout Optimizer: Automatically removes unnecessary shipping and billing address fields during checkout when carts contain only digital downloads, minimizing checkout friction.
- 📦 Order Received & Thank You Card: Renders a prominent, high-converting download access card right on the WooCommerce order confirmation screen.
- 🧲 Built-In 1-Click Lead Magnet Engine: Offer free sample files, PDF chapters, or trial assets in exchange for visitor name and email to rapidly build your marketing list.
- 📊 Download Logs & Analytics: Track customer downloads, timestamps, file names, and IP addresses directly in your WP Admin.
- 🚀 HPOS & WooCommerce Blocks Compatible: 100% compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage and Checkout Blocks.
External Services

FAQ
-
Instead of linking directly to files stored on your server, the plugin generates an encrypted, single-use token. Once the token expires (e.g., after 24 hours or X downloads), the link stops working, preventing buyers from sharing download links on forums or social media.
-
Can customers access their downloads anytime?
-
Yes! When logged in to their WooCommerce account, customers can visit their Customer Asset Vault anytime to generate fresh, authenticated download tokens for products they have purchased.
-
Does it support large files?
-
Yes! Chunked output streaming is used to serve large files efficiently without exhausting server PHP memory limits.
-
Is WooCommerce HPOS supported?
-
Yes! The plugin fully supports WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) and WooCommerce Cart & Checkout Blocks.
