Maximize Your Reach. Simplify Your Sales.
You have done the hard work. You have utilized our APIs to build powerful tools that solves real problems for designers. Now, the goal is to get that tool into the hands of the users who need it most.
The SketchUp Extension Warehouse is more than just a store; It is the bridge between your code and millions of professional users worldwide.
Here is why you should list—and sell—your extension directly on the platform where users live.
Why List on the Extension Warehouse?
The Extension Warehouse is the only marketplace built directly into the SketchUp Desktop application. By listing here, you remove the friction between a user finding your tool and installing it.
Direct In-App Access: Your extension is instantly searchable and installable from within SketchUp. Users do not need to hunt through search engines or navigate third-party websites to find you.
The "Trust" Factor: Before hosting any extensions on our platform, we conduct technical code reviews on every extension listed. This stamp of approval tells users your tool is safe, stable, and meets our quality standards.
Seamless Lifecycle Management: Installation of extensions hosted in Extension Warehouse is as simple as one click. More importantly, when you push a bug fix or a new feature, users are notified immediately within SketchUp, ensuring they are always using the best version of your work.
Zero Listing Fees: There is absolutely no cost to list your extension on the Warehouse. It's free advertising. More users finding your product for zero cost!
Why Sell on the Extension Warehouse?
Great ideas deserve to be rewarded. While you have the option to host sales on your own website, handling transactions directly through the Extension Warehouse offers distinct advantages that lead to higher conversion rates.
1. Remove the Purchase Friction Every time a user has to leave SketchUp, navigate to an external URL, create a new account, and trust a third-party payment gateway, you risk losing the sale. Selling on the Extension Warehouse keeps the user in a familiar trusted environment, drastically reducing cart abandonment.
2. Zero Infrastructure Overhead Forget about setting up e-commerce backends, managing payment gateways, paying for hosting, or worrying about SSL certificates. We handle all of this infrastructure so that you can focus on what matters the most, your product.
3. Enhanced Visibility We actively curate the marketplace. Extensions sold directly through the Warehouse are prioritized for promotion on the front page and can be highlighted in key workflows within the SketchUp product. This is visibility you simply cannot buy elsewhere.
A Fair Partnership
To support the infrastructure, security reviews, and payment processing, Trimble retains a commission on sales made through the platform. This revenue share model ensures that our success is tied to yours— You pay us nothing unless you make a sale. So think of it as an additional sales channel, offering you extra potential clients at no initial cost. What's not to like?
