// the problem
Sell a $10 addon. Superhive's 30% cut takes $3.00 off the top — before payment processing fees. That's not a platform fee. That's a toll on every single sale, forever.
You sell. Your customers are stuck on v1.2 forever. Manual email blasts. Version chaos. Meanwhile, free addons on extensions.blender.org update automatically in-app. Your paid addon doesn't.
Superhive just changed the rules on already-purchased licenses. One-time purchases? Now subscriptions. Your customer data? Still theirs.
// how it works
You keep selling where you already sell. Nothing changes for you or your store.
Purchase event received instantly. License created. HMAC-verified. No manual work.
Automated email with repo URL + key. 3 steps to add it in Blender. Done.
Every version you publish appears in-app. Like an official extension. Forever.
// features
Full Blender 4.2+ protocol compliance. In-app update badges, version changelogs, blocklist support — exactly like official extensions.
One customer key unlocks all your addons. Short-lived signed download tokens — no token stored in the database. Scales to thousands of customers without extra infrastructure.
Gumroad or LemonSqueezy issues a refund? License revoked within seconds. No more "refunded but still using it" support tickets.
The moment someone buys, they receive a setup email with their repo URL and key. Fully customizable template. No ongoing manual work required after initial setup.
Full CSV export of every buyer. Import from Superhive with one click. You own the customer relationship — Polybox is just infrastructure.
HMAC-SHA256 verified webhooks for both platforms. Idempotent processing — duplicate webhook deliveries won't trigger duplicate emails or double-create licenses.
