If you mean trusted, easy-to-use platforms for selling downloadable presets/templates, the safest mainstream picks are:

  1. Etsy

    • Huge buyer traffic
    • Very trusted by customers
    • Good for presets, templates, digital downloads
    • Downside: fees and lots of competition
  2. Creative Market

    • Strong reputation for design assets
    • Buyers expect digital products
    • Great if your presets/templates are polished and niche
    • Downside: more curated, so approval can be harder
  3. Gumroad

    • Very popular with creators and side hustlers
    • Super easy to set up
    • Good for presets, LUTs, templates, PDFs
    • Downside: you bring your own traffic
  4. Payhip

    • Trusted digital-download platform
    • Built-in EU VAT handling
    • Good for small sellers
    • Downside: less built-in marketplace discovery than Etsy

Best “most trusted” overall for shoppers: Etsy
Best for creator-friendly selling: Gumroad
Best for premium design assets: Creative Market

If you want, I can also give you:

  • the best option by preset type (photo presets, video LUTs, Notion templates, Canva templates, etc.)
  • the lowest-fee option
  • or the best platform if you want to avoid getting banned or flagged
