What platform to choose for selling preset-packs (with VAT/MOSS in EU info)

I want to sell preset-pack I made for Massive and I'm looking for a simplest and cheapest way to do that. It's not made to make millions of dollars, I just have fun making it and want to sell it for a few dollars.
It should be simple, with a low (or no) fee, ease to use for the consumer and automatic. Is there anything like that?
As far as I can see people use PayPal for that. Is there something better? Or do I stick with PayPal?

The best place I've found for that is https://sellfy.com/. Free to setup your digital goods and they only 5% per sale, the lowest rate I've found on the net.

Thanks, but as far as I can see (http://blog.sellfy.com/new-eu-vat-rules/) Sellfy is not dealing with VAT by themselves - they cast that down at the sellers.

I haven't seen that, thanks for pointing it to me. I thought they would take care of it, but it seems not.szalonykp wrote:Thanks, but as far as I can see (http://blog.sellfy.com/new-eu-vat-rules/) Sellfy is not dealing with VAT by themselves - they cast that down at the sellers.

You would be hard-pressed to beat Gumroad for simplicity. Very streamlined both for sellers and buyers.

As far as I understand their FAQ they don't deal with VAT for authors from EU countries. I asked FastSpring and Digital Goods Store and they both deal with it.

Just to end (I think) this topic - I've got the info from FastSpring and Digital Goods Store. They both said that they take care of VAT for EU sellers.

I should add to the first post of this thread that in the light of new VAT legislation I'm looking for a platform/marketplace type sites that take care of EU VAT.cnt wrote:Maybe https://tictail.com/
As fas as I understand TicTail is just a store and you are a direct seller which is a no-no in the new situation for me...
