The worst shopping experience I’ve ever had. I tried 4 different cards from different banks – either the bank declines the transaction because it considers Gumroad suspicious, or the website itself s... See more

I ordered from this company
I ordered from this company. I never received an invoice or an email concerning my order. There's no contact information and when I emailed Gumroad support, I never received a reply. Scam of a business!! If I could give less than 1 star, I would!
Once a creator on gumroad, never again
Im a creator on gumroad, they havent paid me in more than 2 months now.. no one answers their email, scam company.
If another creator have this issue, spam their Twitter account and let others know what a scam company this is.
STAY AWAY FROM IT! THEY WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY
Gumroad was good before but now it become the worst platform and they do shady things just to let go your balance after your hard work. STOP USING THEM AND WIDTHRAW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
I reached out to support to request a…
I reached out to support to request a second chance to reactivate my Gumroad account. Unfortunately, their response was not as courteous as I had hoped. They indicated that they would not be providing another opportunity, stating, "We cannot grant a second chance as it appears you will no longer be using your account."
Scam Company
Scam company. It bills your credit card more than what stated. Also it keeps sending you promotional emails even though you have supposedly unsubscribed from them. Do not trust any company who does this.
You get signed up for marketing email lists.
You get signed up for marketing email lists automatically and without consent as soon as you are signed in and just try to purchase something. Incredibly scummy.
Never ever heard of them until they…
Never ever heard of them until they tried to defraud my credit card, but lucky for me my bank notified me and did not process the transaction.
Needless to say, I had to cancel my card as scammers like them will continue to try and push through their fraudulent request.
I am a seller on gumroad
I am a seller on gumroad. My payouts have been paused. Their support responses are made by AI pretending to be an Employe in their support team named "Eva". I am totally done with this kind of scam.
Totally scam!!
Totally scam!!! I bought dumps for an exam. The questions had nothing to do with the exam, and more than that, the answers were wrong anyway. Couldn’t even get a refund from Paypal for this scam.
Horrible website for consumer
Horrible website for consumer. Tried to switch levels of a monthly subscription and I just got billed at the original rate (more). No customer support.
SCAM WEBSITE, AVOID AT ALL COSTS !!!
This company is a complete Scam. Do not use them to buy anything. I brought a product on their site that turned out to be a fake made up posting for something the seller didn’t actually have.
I brought the product paid the money and the seller never sent me anything. I contacted Gumroad many times for assistance and they completely ignored all my emails and did absolutely nothing. I ended up having to contact my bank to get the transaction reversed through them. The company is a complete scam. All the reviews below mine say the same thing. AVOID THIS SITE AT ALL COSTS, IT’S A SCAM. YOU WILL LOSE YOUR MONEY!!!
Gumroad support facility not responding to me
I have an issue with a seller on Gumroad and asked for a refund from the seller. Gumroad informed me that this is the procedure and should the seller not respond within 30 days I should then let them know and they would make sure I receive the refund. I have followed this procedure and informed Gumroad a week ago and again 3 days ago. They are now not responding. Will never purchase off their platform again. Its disgracefu!!
28/10/2024 Update. Despite further emails sent to this company I am yet to receive a response from them. I have just sent another.
05/11/2024 Update. Further emails sent. No response or acknowledgement received. Customer care non-existent.
13/11/2024 Update. Despite almost daily emails to them I have still received no response/acknowledgment from them. It seems they are in a hurry to take money but ignorant and selfish when it comes to refunds. I wonder how much correspondence I would be receiving if I owed them money?!! Scammers!!
21/11/2024 Update. Same as my previous update/s. Avoid this company, especially if you need customer care support!
26/11/2024 Update. Still no response despite sending further emails. If you think you may need there customer support then avoid at all costs. They are active because they did originally respond to me but now that I have followed whatever procedure they required and owe me a refund there is no response.
03/12/2024 Update. Still no response from these people. Absolutely no business ethics from what is supposed to be their "support" facility. Avoid at all costs if there is a chance you may need their assistance. Eventually people won't purchase from the sellers that use their platform.....
They’re stealing all the money
They’re stealing all the money. All your hard earned work is gone due to one measly email they send you stating you’re “temporarily suspended” when in fact they’re taking everything and permanently preventing you from withdrawing. Do not recommend. Bail now.

I don't have issues with the people who use Gumroad to distribute the files.
I have an issue with Gumroad's use of the captcha. I can not get past it. I have better luck with the multiple choice but with the other, I just keep getting try again until it tells me to completely try again latter to complete the charge
MMF is much better and not a pain in the ass to get your purchases..
SCAMMERS! STAY AWAY
This platform is bunch of scammers. It appears they are calling themselves as a small company, but they are living off scamming sellers. Had sales for thousands of dollars only to end up in an account temporarily suspension and upon inquiring what went wrong - the support was like well, we don't want you in our platform so we will no longer respond to any of your concerns. My thousands of dollars balance worth of money was also stolen, no response from them. Turns out account is permanently suspended. I have spoken to my lawyers and will be filling legal lawsuit against them. Save your time and do not use this platform. Once you start making money - they will take it all.
This company is scamming people
This company is scamming people, never paid me for all my hard earned money, sent multiple emails never got a response, been waiting for 20 days now and never got a single payout.
I will report them to commercial instructions in the UK for this criminal behaviors.
Racist mod wouldn’t open me an account
Racist mod wouldn’t open me an account. Excessive fees per transaction even stripe seems better rn. Do not sell your products on this website it will be easier to just buy hosting make it on Wordpress and sell with stripe.

The support never reply
The support never reply, just post the scam information in their public channel, and do not pay to them, you won't get anything
HORRIBLE SITE
HORRIBLE SITE. Every step of the process sucks now. Cannot view any reviews for a product, except the fake glowing positive ones they force on the product page. Library screen is AWFUL and wastes so much space making it difficult to browse.
All round AWFUL site for BUYING ANYTHING.
