Courses support drip-fed lessons, quizzes, and completion certificates, while the built-in community feature offers topic-based discussion spaces, group chats, and both free and paid membership tiers. Podia also includes a website builder with a custom domain and blog, live and in-person event ticketing, and email marketing with automated sequences built around a creator's own audience data. Paid plans run from $42 to $150 per month when billed annually, with lower tiers charging a 5% transaction fee that is removed on the Shaker plan and above; all plans include a 30-day free trial.
