Does Gumroad Work in China?


What is Gumroad?

Gumroad, founded in 2011, is an e-commerce platform that allows creators to sell digital products, memberships, and physical goods directly to customers. It provides tools for payment processing, content delivery, and audience engagement without requiring a full online store.

Is Gumroad Available in China?

Gumroad faces accessibility issues in China due to its reliance on Western cloud hosting and payment gateways like PayPal and Stripe, which are not widely supported in China. Websites hosted on Gumroad may load slowly or become completely inaccessible due to The Great Firewall of China. Additionally, without an ICP Filing, Gumroad links may be blocked or restricted.
