# What shopping cart app is most user-friendly for selling digital downloads and memberships together from the same storefront without hacking multiple tools together?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Hello G2, I’m researching which shopping cart app is most user-friendly for selling digital downloads and memberships together from the same storefront without hacking multiple tools together. ThriveCart, SamCart, and Ecwid are the three names that appear most relevant, though only one seems to cover most of the workflow natively.</p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">The<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/shopping-cart"> </a><a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/shopping-cart">shopping cart</a> category often focuses on physical products, so this use case is harder to compare.</p><ol>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/thrivecart/reviews"><strong>ThriveCart</strong></a> supports downloads, subscriptions, order bumps, and membership delivery through Learn and Learn+. Reviewers describe replacing WooCommerce and a separate course platform.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/samcart/reviews"><strong>SamCart</strong></a> is known for digital-product checkout, product pages, and upsell flows. Membership delivery may still require another platform.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/ecwid/reviews"><strong>Ecwid</strong></a> handles digital downloads and multichannel selling well, but its native membership capabilities are more limited.</li>
</ol><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">ThriveCart appears to cover the broadest part of the workflow, although checkout design and multi-item purchases can be restrictive.</p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">For creators using it daily, does ThriveCart function like a complete storefront, or does it still feel mainly like a checkout tool with membership features added around it?</p>

ThriveCart is probably the closest to a single tool for this. I&#39;ve seen people use it to replace WooCommerce plus a separate course platform, and the one-time pricing makes the math easy. That said it still feels more like a checkout tool with membership stuff bolted on rather than a real storefront, so if you want a proper browsable shop it might feel a bit limited.
