How it works
How selling your EA on Pipsoshop works
Five steps from a compiled .ex4/.ex5 file to a store that sells, licenses, and delivers your trading tools on its own.
The five steps
1
Claim your store
Sign up and your storefront is live immediately — product pages, checkout flow, customer dashboard, and support system already in place. The 15-day trial needs no credit card, so you can shape everything before you pay.
2
Upload your products
Add each EA or indicator with its compiled files, manual, and set files. Upload your MT4/MT5 strategy report and the product page renders profit factor, drawdown, Sharpe ratio, and the equity curve automatically. Pick a pricing model per product: one-time license, monthly subscription, or free trial.
- MT4, MT5, or both per product
- Versioned files — updates reach every buyer instantly
- Backtest metrics on the product page build trust
3
Connect payments
Plug in your own Stripe, PayPal, and NOWPayments (crypto) credentials. Buyers pay on your store and the money lands in your accounts — Pipsoshop charges a flat monthly fee and never touches your revenue.
4
Add license enforcement to your EA
Add a validation call to your EA — typically in OnInit() and on a timer. The license is bound to the buyer's MetaTrader account numbers, so sharing the file achieves nothing.
// In your EA (MQL4/MQL5) — simplified
int OnInit() {
if (!ValidateLicense(InpLicenseKey, AccountNumber()))
return INIT_FAILED; // unlicensed → EA refuses to run
return INIT_SUCCEEDED;
}
5
Sell and scale
Share your store link on YouTube, Telegram, or your signal groups. Watch revenue and license activity in analytics, launch coupons for promotions, recruit affiliates with per-product commissions — and when the brand is ready, connect your own domain with automatic SSL.
The buyer side
What your customer experiences
A checkout that feels like buying from a real software company — because now you are one.
2 · Receive
Instant key + download
License key and files delivered immediately, with a customer dashboard for re-downloads and updates.
3 · Activate
Binds to their account
They register their MetaTrader account numbers; the EA validates and runs. Sharing the key gets them nowhere.
The trial, honestly
Build for 15 days free. Pay only to go live.
During the trial you can build the entire store — products, licensing, pages, branding. Checkout for your customers switches on with your first paid subscription, so you're never charged while you're still setting up. If the trial lapses, nothing is deleted: subscribe later and pick up exactly where you left off.
