We love real, physical brick and mortar game and book stores and we want to see them survive and thrive as digital content options for traditional publishing becomes more prevalent. We bring the physical and digital worlds together so that you can support your Friendly Local Gaming Store (FLGS) while keeping up-to-date with your digital collection.
Plenty of customers out there want the best of both worlds, physical and digital. We empower your store to match print-and-PDF bundle offers and keep the whole transaction in-house.
Make your retail store sales a better value by offering digital copies free with the purchase of the corresponding physical book. You are not restricted by this program – you can still give away or sell ebooks however you like.
Support your Friendly Local Gaming Store and get your PDF too. Learn more about publisher offers or how to get your local store involved.

Bits and Mortar is fantastic. Working hand in hand with our publishing partners, we are better able than ever to actually share a customer base, rather than compete for it. I have had people specifically bring books up to the counter because they knew they would have a PDF waiting for them in their inbox when they got home. I don’t know why any store wouldn’t want to take part in the program.
There are currently 876 Bits and Mortar retailers. Get your store involved, it's easy and free to sign up.
