Selling on Flightsim.to
Flightsim.to collaborates with esteemed developers to offer the flight simulation community a range of exceptional add-ons. If you are interested in selling your products on our platform, you need to apply to become a vendor.
Flightsim.to collaborates exclusively with a limited number of product sellers. We place great emphasis on product quality and alignment with our market and target audience. It is essential that your products cater to a broad user base and meet stringent quality requirements that surpass those of freeware offerings. In other words, selling on Flightsim.to requires you to dedicate yourself to a business, more than just doing it as part of your hobby.
How to get started
- Prepare Your Product: Develop a polished product compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator, ready or almost ready for release.
- Contact Flightsim.to: Send an email to support@flightsim.to or use our ticketing form to submit a new ticket and include the following information:
- Provide a detailed description of your product accompanied by screenshots, images, or videos that effectively showcase its features to our approval team.
- Include an estimated release date for your product and specify whether you intend to offer it exclusively on Flightsim.to or through other channels.
- If you have other products available on different platforms, share links to your storefronts for reference.
After you submit your application, our approval team will conduct a thorough review of the product information you provided. This process can take up to two weeks, so we kindly ask for your patience. If your application is approved, you will be invited to review and sign our Digital Distribution Agreement. Once signed, you will gain access to our Vendor Console. As a vendor, you can create and list your products on Flightsim.to, similar to uploading regular freeware files, complete with pricing and product details. While each of your products will need to undergo an initial approval process, subsequent approvals will be significantly faster.
