The author of the affiliate plugin phpoet mentions also makes an eStore plugin that works seemlessly with the affiliate plugin. He also offers a discount if you purchase both together. You can get both for about the same cost as the other shop plugins alone. I have been very pleased using them.

Thanks, numeeja. I’ll check out the Shopp plugin as well. Looks like it’s right around the same price as PHPurchase. PHPurchase may be a great plugin. I just can’t get past the glowing testimonial on the plugin home page from himself. Tacky to say the least.

I’m looking at options right now. PHPurchase looks good, but it’s so new there are not many comments from users out there. I find mention scattered on various sites from people running QuietHeadphones.com. They rave about it. Problem is, when you do a WhoIs search on QuietHeadphones.com, it’s registered to the guy who made the plugin. That turns me off right there. Still, I’ve narrowed it down to PHPurchase or eStore

They both integrate with the affiliate plugin made by the same guy that made eStore. I’m trying to determine why I should go with PHPurchase for more $$ instead of the package deal from the eStore guy. If you are also selling physical products, seems the PHPurchase plugin would be the best option. For only digital downloads, I’m not sure. The only differences I see initially is PHPurchase accepts more payment processors, and eStore integrates with Aweber and MailChimp. And I like the Squeeze Page feature in eStore to build a mailing list. Both are continuing to be developed, though. I know the guy who made eStore is working to add more payment processors including Google Checkout. I also think the integration of the store and affiliate system will be tighter coming from the same author as the products move forward.

It’s a hard call since both are so new. I see more links to sites using eStore right now, and the package price for both plugins is attractive. Right now I am leaning eStore.

I’ll post more once I make a final decision and begin implementing.
