Here’s the thing nobody tells you when you start selling Canva templates online: pretty doesn’t equal profitable.
I learned that the hard way. I used to spend hours designing gorgeous templates, only to watch them sit on my Payhip store like digital wallpaper, no clicks, no sales, just vibes.
But once I started digging into what people were actually buying, it clicked. The templates that sell solve problems. They save people time. They help them look professional without hiring a designer.
If you’re ready to stop guessing and start selling, here are the top Canva templates to sell on Payhip in 2025 that actually make consistent sales, plus tips to help you price, package, and promote them.
1. Instagram Carousel Templates for Coaches & Creators
Everyone wants content that’s scroll-stopping, but most people don’t have time to design it.
Why it sells: Coaches, freelancers, and content creators need a way to stay consistent on social without spending hours in Canva.
What to include:
-
10–20 slide designs (quotes, tips, hooks, CTAs)
-
Bonus: Reels cover or story version
-
Editable fonts and colors for branding
Tip: Niche down. “Instagram Templates for Nutrition Coaches” sells better than just “Carousel Templates.”
2. Lead Magnet / Freebie Templates
Freebies are everywhere and smart business owners know they need one to grow an email list.
Why it sells: People want polished, professional-looking lead magnets fast.
Best types:
-
5-page ebook layout

Checklist or cheat sheet template

Mini workbook or PDF guide
Bonus idea: Add a how-to video or written guide explaining how to edit and publish their lead magnet.
3. Editable Pricing Guides (Great for Service Providers)
Photographers, coaches, and freelancers all need clean, confident pricing sheets to send to clients.
Why it sells: Saves time, avoids awkward back-and-forth emails, and looks professional.

This is an underrated goldmine. Coaches, VAs, and designers want to create smooth onboarding processes.

“What to Expect” page

Communication guide
Who buys this: New service providers who want to look pro but don’t have systems yet.
Pair it with a feedback or testimonial request page for extra value.
5. Ebook & Workbook Layouts for Digital Products
Course creators, therapists, and digital marketers all need workbooks.
Why it sells: Formatting long-form content is a pain—templates make it easy.
What to include:
-
Cover + table of contents
-
Multiple layouts: journal pages, reflection prompts, info + visuals
-
End-of-section review pages
Bundle idea: Sell as a “Digital Product Starter Kit” with matching mockups and sales page template.
6. Canva Media Kit Templates for Influencers & Creators
Brands ask for media kits—but many influencers don’t know where to start.
What to include:
-
About section
-
Stats (follower count, engagement rate)
-
Brand collaboration history
-
Contact page and rates section
Why it sells: Makes influencers look polished, even if they’re just starting out.
You can even sell niche versions (e.g., TikTok creators vs. fashion bloggers).
7. Editable Planners (Daily, Weekly, Monthly)
Productivity content always performs. Especially if it’s cute, practical, and printable.
Best themes:
-
ADHD-friendly planners
-
Wellness or self-care planners
-
Goal-tracking planners
-
Meal planning or fitness routines
Pro tip: Bundle multiple layouts together and offer as printable or digital (for GoodNotes).
8. Email Newsletter Templates for Coaches or Creators
Newsletters are hot again, but design still trips people up.
What to include:
-
Weekly or monthly layout
-
CTA section

Tips column or featured article

Testimonial or review layout
Make them niche: “Mockups for Coaching Products” or “Mockups for Planner Sellers”
10. Social Proof Templates (Testimonials + Case Studies)
This one’s sneaky-effective. Brands are finally realizing how valuable testimonials are, but most just throw text on a white background.
What to include:
-
Testimonial cards
-
Case study layout (problem → process → result)

Review carousel or story design
