The holiday season is an excellent time to roll out new products and win over customers. Digital products don’t require you to take on new inventory, and your customers won’t have to worry about these digital gifts shipping in time for your gift exchange.
Below, we’ll showcase fourteen digital product ideas that any seller can adapt to their creative niche. From planner printables to holiday gift guides, these digital products are equal parts festive and functional.
What Is A Koji?
A Koji is a type of interactive media that can help you sell your products, downloads, services or premium content. To create a Koji, simply select a template and customize before sharing the unique URL on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, WhatsApp, or anywhere else!
Best Digital Product Ideas For The Holidays
Ready to earn big this holiday season? Consider crafting any of these digital gifts for your customers:
1. Calendar, Journal, or Planner Templates
With the new year right around the corner, digital templates for calendars, journals, or planners are unsurprisingly in demand. You can create custom templates using tools like Canva that your customers can download and utilize inside of apps like Good Notes.
These templates can be sold directly through the Sell Downloadable Files Koji. For selling multiple templates, use the free Sell Digital Products storefront.
2. Video Courses
One of the most thoughtful gifts one can give is an experience or a new skill. Instead of scrambling to put together a limited holiday line, why not craft a video course customers can purchase for themselves, friends or family?
Whether you’re sharing an exercise routine, decoding your painting style, or detailing your family’s baking secrets, you can create and monetize a course with the Sell Video Courses Koji.
3. Festive Craft Patterns
Do you already have a sewing pattern drafted up for your family’s Christmas pajamas? Do you have some DIY craft instructions designed to keep the kids busy during holiday get-togethers? Why not turn some of your patterns into profit?
You can sell craft patterns, instructions, or printouts with the Sell Digital Products Koji.
4. Gift Tag or Card Printables
Calling all graphic designers and wordsmiths! We all run out of words sometimes. Help alleviate some of the holiday pressure for your customers by selling gift tags or card printouts with Sell Digital Products.
5. Holiday E-books or Songbooks
Who doesn’t love curling up with a good book while it’s cold outside? Make sure to market and monetize your E-books with the Sell E-books & PDFs Koji. Musicians can also use this template to sell sheet music or custom arrangements of everyone’s favorite holiday tunes.

6. Custom Video Greetings
There are few things more heartwarming than getting a shoutout or check-in from your favorite creator. Let your fans join in on the fun and purchase greetings for themselves or loved ones with the Shoutout Koji.
7. Commissioned Portraits
You can always use Koji to sell prints or other art with Shopify. However, the holidays usually come with an increased demand for custom creations. Consider using Sell A Service to offer up custom commissions or portraits of families or pets.
8. Travel Guides
The holiday season is full of traveling. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to monetize your travel advice. Sell travel plans through Thatch or create an E-book for your favorite secret spots in your city.
9. Lightroom Presets
Help your customers polish off the perfect holiday photo by selling custom Lightroom Presets. Sell one or sell a bundle at a price of your choosing.
10. Gift Guides
Arguably the most difficult part of the holiday season is figuring out what to get the loved ones in your life. Help out your followers by creating curated gift guides and monetizing through Exclusive Article. You can also earn commissions from photos with Shop the Look or Affiliate Links.
11. Holiday Recipes
There’s nothing like your Grandma’s cookie recipe! Spread the joy and share some of your favorite recipes on social media. You can sell recipe E-books with Sell E-books & PDFs or one-off recipes with Provecho.
12. Consultations
Are you a mentor at heart? Make sure you’re offering consultation through Sell a Service this holiday season. You could also cast a wider net and host your own paid webinar with Link Locker for your customers.
13. Downloadable Game Printouts
One of the best parts of the holiday season is that it comes with a lot of downtime. Help your customers spend more quality time with their loved ones by building your own downloadable game printouts! These could be as simple as thought-provoking questions to ask family and friends, or a more elaborate challenge related to your niche. Sell your printouts with Sell Downloadable Files.
14. Exclusive Audio
The holiday season comes with a ton of festive music. Monetize your own renditions directly to fans with the Locked Audio storefront. Not a musical virtuoso? You can also use Audio Inbox to sell personalized messages or advice to customers.
Be sure to carry some of your new digital product offerings into the new year. Don’t forget that there’s no limit to how many Kojis you create, so feel free to experiment with different versions and editions of your digital products. Happy holidays from Koji!
