Sell audiobooks on Kartra

Initial setup for your whole account

Step 1: Activate "outbound API"

 
Click, "Yes, activate outbound API"
Select "https://" from the dropdown
Copy-paste this URL, before making changes:
Now, make two important changes to that URL:
  • Replace myusername with your real Awesound username.
  • Replace awe_zxrmk42uhr4ef82qzd3z_secretwith your real secret.
Tip: you can view your username and secret here:

Once you complete Step 1 once, you never need to return here again. You need to follow Steps 2 and 3 for every different book you wish to sell.

Step 2: Specific setup for each audiobook

 
Explicitly set up API events for the products that are audiobooks.
For each audiobook, set up three events:
  • Customer buys product
  • Customer refunds product
  • Customer partially refunds product
 
For example, in this screenshot, we've set up three API events, for one audiobook:

Step 3: Add the product number to Awesound

Not sure what the Kartra product ID is? Here's one way:

A. Make a test purchase of your product on Kartra (you can always fully refund yourself later).
B. Click "My Products" → "Analytics" → "Sales" → Scroll down to the bottom of the page. Click the blue number representing the number of sales of the product you're interested in.
In this screenshot, we have made 5 test purchases already, so I click the blue number 5 (highlighted with a green circle):
Click the blue number of sales for the product you're setting up.
 
C. Note the Product ID in the URL you're taken to.
Note the Product ID in the URL. In this case, it's 219497.
 

Once you know the product ID, add it to Awesound

Click "Edit audiobook details"
 
Add this product ID to Awesound
Remember to click Save
 
 

Test and test again

Once steps 1-3 are all done, you should run at least one more test purchase. This time, when the product is bought on Kartra, the listener should automatically receive an email from Awesound.
