How to deliver digital products via email after a sale
In this article, you will learn how to automate your fulfillment infrastructure by sending an automated email delivery containing a digital file product directly to your customers immediately following a successful purchase event.
What you will need:
- A SystemeScale account
- A published sales funnel featuring a responsive payment sheet page layout
- The digital file product asset you wish to distribute
1. Create an automation rule on the payment page
To lock delivery triggers directly onto your order processing checkpoint, create a localized page rule parameter:
1
Access order form settings
Navigate to your desired sales funnel workspace, select your active order form or payment page layout from the step list, and click on the localized Automation Rules tab at the top section view. Click Add rule.
2
Map the checkout event milestone trigger
Click the (+) icon beneath the Triggers column header block and select the
New sale action block from the parameter options list.3
Attach the message delivery action
Click the corresponding (+) icon beneath the Actions column block list and select the
Send email action type.π‘
Optional Customer Segmentation Tagging
We strongly recommend also attaching a secondary
Add a tag action step directly alongside your delivery layout. This categorizes your purchasing contacts inside your CRM registry instantly, allowing for accurate list health metrics. Learn how to map tags inside our Tag Creation Guide.2. Build your email and attach the digital asset file
Once your action loop blocks are initialized, design your customer fulfillment envelope layout:
4
Open the communication editor modal
Click the (+) icon directly attached to your new Send email action block card to initialize a fresh document, or click the pencil icon to edit an existing assignment link.
5
Compile content and attach your file
Inside the email editor popup window, type your customer subject header line and core body text. Next, scroll to the attachments block and click the cloud icon to upload your digital file asset, or drag and drop your file directly into the drop zone area.

Global Delivery Compliance and Weight Restraints
To guarantee exceptional outbound server delivery performance and bypass spam filters, raw attachment sizes are strictly limited to a maximum threshold of **5MB**. If your digital product footprint exceeds 5MB, you must compress your document folder or host it in your repository.
π
Dynamic Asset Hyperlinking Behavior
To keep messages lightweight, uploaded assets do not compile as raw, heavy MIME email attachments. Instead, they are automatically generated as **secure text download link objects** dynamically appended to the base footer of the email text layout. This aligns with deliverability guidelines enforced by all major ISPs (Google, Yahoo, Microsoft).
6
Lock down the complete automation stack
Scroll down inside your layout popup canvas and click Save to secure your copy draft settings. Finally, click the master Save rule button on the upper dashboard layer to activate the live processing loop.
3. Testing your transactional fulfillment loop
We highly recommend validating your outbound sequence flow before onboarding public traffic layers. Execute a dummy purchase transaction through your active payment step checkout view to ensure your messaging engine triggers correctly and relays the tracking data token cleanly to your inbox.
