    I have 3x files (PDF, EPUB and MOBI) that the customer downloads after purchasing the ebook we have advertised on the website.

    How can i stop people from downloading all three files without paying for it.

    The three files are uploaded directly to our website in the uploads folder.

    Is there a way to stop anyone from just downloading this using direct link ??

    Do you have encrypted downloads, along with download link expiry enabled?

    How can i stop people from downloading all three files without paying for it.

    Is the problem really that you feel buyer should be paying separately for each file format, à la Amazon? If that’s the case, force the buyer to specify the desired format as a product variation, at the time of purchase.
