    Hello. Please look at my scenario and guide me for the same… *Note – all my products are digital (zip) files. Also, I have all the 3 products i.e. eStore, eMember and Affiliate Platform.

    I want a create a site which has the following features-

    1) Free Membership (Which will have access to the FREE DOWNLOADS ONLY).

    2) Premium Membership (Which will have access to both FREE and PREMIUM PRODUCTS.

    3) Individual Product Purchases (the buyers aren’t registered as members. they can just buy individual products).

    Now in that, I want to create digital products that will only be available for members to download (free and premium both).

    So 1) – how do I create products that can be accessed by both free/premium members.

    2) how do I create products that can ONLY be accessed by premium members.

    3) how do i keep those products to be purchased and downloaded individually?

    How do I SECURE the products so they cannot be downloaded by any random person even if they have the direct links to the ZIP files?

    I’ve gone through the documentation several times but yet confused!

    You could also build upon the solution that @Peter previously gave you.

    Using “Download Now” buttons from eStore, instead of actual links, on the membership download pages will generate encrypted links that will protect the content from direct access.

    For individual purchases, just setup eStore as usual, without any specific membership restrictions.

    So for the individual purchases, I set up the products in eStore and for the free products + premium products, I don’t add them from eStore but from the “Download Folder Protection” inside eMember. Is that correct?

    Yes, but because you don’t want members to know the “real URL” of your downloads, you’d use “option 3” that is discussed on the demo page; which is to place eStore “Download Now” buttons on the protected pages, instead of direct links.
