A new digital publishing format for a premium content experience — built for Shopify
Customizable
Layered digital art, comic books, vertical publications, and more — every Masterfile composes to the work.
Attachments
Add bonus files, behind the scenes content, and exclusive etras to deepen the experience.
Shopify-Native
Publish directly on your Shopify storefront. Sell, market, and bundle without a middleman platform between you and your fans.
Masterfile DCE installs into the store you already run. Products, checkout, customers, and payouts stay in Shopify — no new platform, no middleman, no migration.
SELL IT YOUR WAY
One premium format. Two ways to sell it.
Every Masterfile is a product in your store — price it, drop it, and merchandise it however you sell.
A collector-grade content format
Guided view, layered art, music, and attachments — premium by default, in every format.

PATH 01 — SOLO
Sell it on its own
List an edition like any product in your store — its own price, its own page, its own drop calendar.
PATH 02 — BUNDLED
Bundle it with physical
Attach the digital edition to the print run, the vinyl, the variant cover — one cart, one checkout, one collector.
A Superior alternative to centralized platforms
Masterfile DCE gives creators and IP owners a world-class digital publishing format that lives directly on their Shopify storefront — so you keep the revenue, the customer, the marketing surface, and the bundle.
ON MASTERFILE (YOUR SHOPIFY)
ON CENTRALIZED PLATFORMS
REVENUE
Keep your revenue
You own pricing and capture full margin on every scale, with no platform take rate.
REVENUE
Significant commission & take rates
Platforms skim a meaningful percentage of every transaction before you see a cent.
CUSTOMER
Own the customer relationship
Fan data, contact info, and the relationship live in your Shopify — yours to remarket and serve.
CUSTOMER
Platform owns your fans
Customer identity and data flowing from it sit behind a platform you don't control.
mARKETING
Native to social commerce
Marketable directly through Meta, YouTube, and the rest of the social commerce stack.
MARKETING
Not natively marketable on social
Platform-locked formats can't plug cleanly into Meta or YouTube ad and commerce surfaces.
BUNDLING
Bundle with physical & experiences
Pair digital editions with prints, merch, signed copies, and IRL experiences in one cart.
BUNDLING
Can't be bundled
Locked-in digital products can't be combined with your physical products or experiences.
Six formats. One publishing stack.
Digital Comic
Guided view, panel by panel — the flagship Masterfile format.
Mobile Comic
Infinite vertical scroll for webtoons and mobile-first episodes.
Track
Albums and soundtracks, playable inside the edition.
Zine
Small-press publishing that outlives the print run.
Digital Art
Layered artwork collectors can pull apart.
Digital Card
Card drops and reveals, straight to the collection.
