The problem
Global platforms, local problems.
Stripe doesn't work here. PayPal withdrawals are blocked or frozen. Nigerian creators are left routing payments through workarounds that eat weeks and a percentage of every sale.
Buyers don't trust download links.
A link in a DM, a Google Drive folder, a Flutterwave page with no branding — buyers have been burned before. The moment they hesitate, the sale is gone.
There is no local marketplace built for this.
Gumroad is foreign. Selar exists but its reach is limited. There's no place designed from the ground up for Nigerian creators selling digital goods at Naira prices to Naira buyers.
How it works
Three steps.
That's the whole thing.
Upload your product
Add your eBook, course, template, or audio file. Set your Naira price. Your store is live in minutes.
Buyer pays via Paystack
Card, bank transfer, or USSD — every Nigerian payment method works. No foreign card required, no middlemen.
Secure download key delivered
The buyer gets a time-limited download key by email. One use, then it expires. No piracy workarounds, no link sharing.
Why CreatorLock
Built around outcomes,
not feature lists.
Sell in Naira. Get paid in Naira.
Set your price in the currency your buyers actually use. No conversion rates, no withheld funds, no explaining why payment failed.
Paystack pays you. Instantly.
No 14-day holding periods. No manual withdrawal requests. When a buyer pays, your Paystack balance updates — transfer to your bank on your schedule.
Buyers don't need an account.
Guest checkout only. Enter an email, pay, get the download key. Zero friction between intent and purchase — no sign-up wall to kill the sale.
Download links that expire.
Every purchase generates a single-use, time-limited download key sent by email. Once used or expired, it's gone. Your files stay yours.

From the founder
I built this because I kept watching Nigerian creators lose sales to broken payment links, WhatsApp DMs gone cold, and Google Drive folders that got reported and taken down. The work was good. The distribution was the problem.
Every tool I found was built for someone else — a US creator with a Stripe account, a European freelancer with a PayPal. If you're selling in Naira to Nigerians, you're an afterthought. CreatorLock is built the other way around.
We're early. There's a lot still to build. But the core is right: upload your product, set your price, get paid. That part works today.
