Price transparency5.0/10
Starter is $39 a month billed annually with a 5% fee on each sale plus Stripe's fees, and the terms let fees change at the next billing cycle.

A 7-day trial applies; the 30-day money-back claim conflicts with the terms, which leave refunds to the company's discretion.
Published feature coverage10.0/10
Starter lists Stripe payments, content gating and spaces, 10,000 member emails, coupons and upsells, a Rewardful affiliate program and use on your own site and domain.
Integrations8.0/10
Stripe, Rewardful, Zapier and a JavaScript API are listed with member import and export; native app count is not published and the Admin API is a Growth-plan beta.
Support access4.0/10
Starter includes email, 1:1 Zoom help and free weekly live sessions; live chat starts on Growth and no response target is published.
