Sell your app or game where people install software

Obtinum gives independent developers a store for Windows and the web: checkout, tax, licence keys, a library for your buyers and one-click installs, without the platform tax.

Developer sign-up opens soon. Early publishers are added by hand: write to hello@obtinum.com.

What you get

Checkout and sales tax, handled

Buyers pay in their own currency. Obtinum is the seller of record, so VAT, GST and US sales tax are filed for you.

Licence keys built in

Every purchase issues a key that your app can check with one request, and refunds revoke it automatically.

A library your buyers keep

What people buy stays in their Obtinum library, ready to reinstall on every PC they own.

Installed alongside other apps

People build packs of apps and install them together, so your app gets picked up with others.

Upload from your terminal

One command pushes a build. Channels per platform, beta channels, and buyers download only what changed.

Apps and games

Games get genres, system requirements and controller support on their page; apps get categories and collections.

From code to listing

A person checks your first release. After that, updates publish on their own.

Full publishing guide
  1. Prove the app is yours

    Sign in and verify ownership through GitHub, GitLab or a DNS record on your domain. Verified developers get a badge.

  2. Describe it in obtinum.toml

    Name, platforms, category, tags, price, screenshots and privacy notes, kept next to your code.

  3. Push a build

    From your machine or GitHub Actions. Each platform gets its own channel.

  4. Checks, then a person

    Every build is scanned for malware and signature problems. A person reviews your first release; later updates go live on their own.
