Unlock the SupaCart Experience

In early 2023, VitalSource announced a new partnership with Supadu, the leading provider of websites and direct-to-consumer eCommerce solutions for trade and academic publishers, as well as university presses.

We now provide the digital delivery solution as part of Supadu’s new Supacart, a global eCommerce offering. Supacart integrates into any existing website either as an extra bolt-on or as part of an end-to-end website and eCommerce offering. This solution includes customer support and reduces onerous obligations and additional costs for publishers.

This universal cart works with a 3rd party payment gateway and integrated electronic data interchange (EDI) fulfillment is proven to drive title visibility and direct-to-consumer (DTC) sales. You can choose to opt into the SupaCart experience or continue to use VitalSource’s APIs, whichever solution best suits your needs.

"We recognized that selling ebooks directly from our website would provide immense benefits to both ourselves and to our customers. We needed a partner for this project who could serve equally as a consultant and as the technology to power the fulfillment: VitalSource was just that.
