Will customers outside "target countries" checked in the MarketPress shipping options tab be prohibited from purchasing digital downloads?
To clarify, we are primarily selling digital downloads in one of the blogs on our network. We are activating MarketPress site-by-site (For future Pro Sites Integration), and have checked only a few common countries on the shipping tab in the MP admin area of that blog. Will customers from countries other than those checked still be able to purchase digital downloads? Or, will they only be blocked from purchasing other non-download products? Just need to know if I should check all the countries or not.

Greetings jcnjr :-)
sir I think that it only affects the shipping of physical products as a shipping option.
In other words I am in Bulgaria and I want to buy a product from a company that only ships to the US and that is the only option this company choose in MP shipping, I am sure I could still place the order but it will have to ship to my US address.
With Digital Products I do not think shipping even comes into play and is irrelevant.

Thanks for the quick feedback Joe!
Can any support staff confirm this?

Hey jcnjr.
When a digital product is sold, no shipping applies. The user checkouts with his/her email address.
Physical products will ask for a billing address, so only countries you permit can be selected.
Hope that helps.
