Various embodiments of the present technology involve the delivery of digital content via a synchronized content management system (CMS) in return for a payment. For example, a first user could send a share link containing a content item to a second user. Upon attempting to open the content item, the second user could be prompted to input payment information. In response to providing the payment information, the second user could select the share link enabling the second user to download the content item.
