Free or PRO version of Zenler?

Greger Hillman Author

In this article and videoguide you will see what the difference is between the free and PRO version.

You can upload and start selling your online courses and memberships with a free account at New Zenler.

There is also a paid tier that unlocks more features and removes fees, so the question is whether it's worth upgrading to New Zenler PRO or if the free version is sufficient?

I have helped over 400 course creators get started with Zenler, and about half of them manage well with the free version.

However, this is individual, and based on my experience, it often comes down to budget and when the 'fee' for Zenler Pro pays for itself.

What does New Zenler PRO cost?

There are 2 paid plans to choose from: Zenler PRO and Zenler Premium. The vast majority use Zenler PRO, which is well-equipped to meet most needs. At the same time, there are some businesses with larger needs, and that's where the Premium account fits in.

New Zenler PRO costs as low as $54 per month depending on wish pricing plan you choose.

These are great prices compared to similar services like Podia or Thinkific. But there are more reasons why Zenler is growing in popularity both in US and Europe entrepreneurs. The simplicity of getting VAT specified on receipts and translating Zenler into your own language are just two of the reasons.

What are the limitations of New Zenler's free account?

With Zenler's free account, you can upload your courses and sell them freely. However, it’s during the sales process that Zenler takes a share of the revenue.

You get to keep 90%, while Zenler takes 10% of the sales price as a fee. This is how Zenler funds its operations. A good deal when you consider the entire infrastructure required to run a course platform.

It’s Zenler that 'takes the risk,' not you. If you don’t sell anything, you don’t pay anything to Zenler. So keeping 90% of each sale sounds pretty good, right?

When does it make sense to upgrade to New Zenler PRO?

If you’re selling many courses, memberships with recurring payments, or workshops, you’ll notice that Zenler’s 10% share, combined with payment processing fees, adds up and becomes a significant amount quite quickly.

This can be one of the reasons why you might want to upgrade to Zenler’s PRO account.

It costs just under $650 per year and unlocks all features while simultaneously removing Zenler’s 10% fee on every sale. With simple math, we can see that $650 per year corresponds to 10% of $5000. This means that if you sell courses and memberships for more than $5000 per year, it’s a ‘no-brainer’ to upgrade to Zenler PRO. Otherwise, the cost of the free account becomes significantly higher since you’ll continue paying Zenler 10% on all sales beyond that amount as well—on the next $5000, the next $10000, $20000, and so on.
