Unlock the whole vault.
The mode for template shops, resource archives, and stock asset libraries. Subscribers get the keys the moment they pay — and you get MRR without rationing releases.
- Instant access. Every file unlocked the second payment clears.
- In-store streaming. Video + audio plays on your theme, no external player.
- Per-file access rules. Gate premium items behind higher tiers while keeping the base catalog open.
- Download limits (optional). Per-cycle caps protect your margin on enormous assets.
Credits that renew monthly.
The mode for stock media, download stores, and mixed catalogs. Subscribers buy a pass — say, 10 downloads per month — and choose what to spend them on. You earn steady revenue without giving away the farm.
- Credit pools. Set N downloads per billing cycle. Roll over, expire, or reset — your rule.
- Across the catalog. Customers browse your whole store and redeem credits anywhere.
- Top-up packs. Let subscribers buy extra credits mid-cycle without upgrading plans.
- Usage analytics. See which products drive redemption, which tiers over/under-use.

Recommendation
Start with a Content Pass
Stock catalogs are built for quota — subscribers want to browse and grab assets on demand without worrying about total-access bills. Launch with a 10/month Basic and a 50/month Pro; add Library tier for power users later.
Any mode, one app, native to Shopify .
Install Content Vault free, pick your mode, publish. Switch modes or add new ones whenever you want — subscribers stay put.
