Podia Pricing Overview

Podia is a beautiful tool. It has an amazing design and offers all features for course hosting (and payment management). Instead of charging for each sale, it only charges a fixed amount per month. It is perfect for people who makes a high volume of sales per month, what will be my case next year, and I'm sure I'll switch to Podia. Currently, I'm using a tool called Hotmart. The tool is also good (but Podia is better), but it charges 10% for each sale, what is very very high.

I think Podia could also offer an option to charge for each sale. I haven't switched to Podia yet because of this. Currently, I have a low amount of sales (~ $250 / month) and it is better to pay Hotmart 10% fee. If Podia implements this type of plan, teachers with low volume of sales will be able to use it.

I have subscribed for the trial. I've hosted one of my online courses there to test, and I really really liked it. The best thing, as I said, is that it only charges a fixed amount per month. Of course you'll need to pay for payment management (Stripe) but the fee is very low compared to other membership areas tools.

Podia is super easy and fun to use! The whole design is incredibly simple - you never feel overwhelmed or confused (I'm looking at you, Wordpress!). It's very efficient - meaning that whatever you are trying to do - it has a function for that. And if you are unsure about say, whether your product is an online download or a webinar, they can help you with that! The staff is incredibly helpful and insightful with whatever query you may have, big or small.

I can't think of any downsides, really, I haven't had a problem yet. The only thing is that sometimes there is a bit of a delay in the response from the Podia team, but this is a very minor delay.

I had help with putting together a website with Podia. I had extensive help with the set-up. My friend walked me through it. I was amazed at how easy and simple and intuitive using Podia was. I am using it for a website that sells online courses. I have made 20x sales in about a month and I couldn't be happier. Anytime I hit a snag or have a question I just send one through the chat-box and I get a very helpful response in minutes, usually.

Podia is an All-In-One platform for creators to showcase their products, information, and stories for all to see. Moreover, you can also generate passive income using the built in email, community, and membership capabilities. I love it! One place - Does it all!

I dislike the fact Podia charges so much to embed a pop-up. I also dislike not having a "blog" feature with sidebars and other links a blog format has. Podia, please add this feature!

No issues. Chat is available. Response to emails is less than 24 hours. All questions answered.

I'm very disappointed with the brand. Please see my comments in the next answer.

I've been a user of Podia for almost a year but ended up getting very disappointed with their approach to customer support. Stripe has reported that one customer filed a fraud dispute for the products she bought through my podia account. As a way to show Stripe that it was a real customer and not a fake scam, I was asked to provide server logs. The amount disputed is $3000 so it's a pretty big deal. I requested Podia to help me out but they refused saying this is not what they can help with. They only sent me an HTML version of an email which was sent to the customer. How can this help me to explain that the product was really bought? Podia doesn't request people to provide their mailing address nor checks for any scam verification before a purchase is made and thus this leaves space for scams. Considering that, they could at least make an exception and provide extra help, especially when the sum is like this. I just don't understand the humanity behind such a brand. So disappointed with this brand!!! It clearly shows the values of such company.

Using podia for years so couldn’t recommend it more. It’s especially great for people like me who want a tool that is both simple for the end-user and the content creator. Many tools out there just have such a bad UX for the end-user and this one makes a lot of things right.

The fact that the ability to add custom code is in the higher pricing tier.

Have all my courses, books, templates, community, and emails in one place.

Very simple to use and intuitive, it makes it easy to sell digital products and courses in no time. It's really easy to setup everything, and they have affordable plans without fees.

It's hard to personalize your sales pages as their editor is limited. That would be great to have more options of styling and also add media easier like timers etc...

I was looking for a simple solution to sell digital products and saw some video reviews so I tried it and really enjoy using it as it make everything easy and simple.

The management abilities are extensive and the interface can be easily figured out with no tutorial

I didn't dislike much about the program. The price is a bit high depending on what you need.

I'm able to host online courses and manage every aspect of them in the same place
