Whop, explained by someone who isn't selling you a competitor
Every "Whop pricing" article on page one is written by a rival platform. This site reads Whop's own fee schedule, does the arithmetic at real sale sizes, and tells you plainly when Whop is the wrong choice.

Whop against the platform you're considering
Same format every time: monthly cost, cut per sale, what you lose. Fees are taken from each provider's own pricing page and the date we read them is on the page.
What people actually sell on Whop
We run seven review sites covering more than 300 live Whop communities, so the niche guides below are grounded in what is selling right now — price points, refund norms and what buyers complain about.
How this site is different
Primary sources only
Fees come from whop.com/network/pricing and docs.whop.com, not from a competitor's blog. Each page lists what we read and when.
Arithmetic in the open
Every table is generated from the published rates, so you can check any number by hand.
We say when to stay put
A $500/month Skool group should probably stay on Skool. A Kajabi Pro user with 40 courses has real switching costs. We say so.
Paid by Whop, disclosed everywhere
We are Whop partners. If you start a business through our links Whop pays us from its margin. Your fees do not change. Full disclosure.
Frequently asked questions
Is Whop free to use?
Yes to open an account and list products. Whop charges no monthly fee; it takes 2.7% + $0.30 on each domestic card sale, more for international cards, currency conversion and optional add-ons. Full fee breakdown.
Does Whop make you money?
Whop is a set of tools — a storefront, checkout, payouts and a marketplace listing. It does not generate income by itself. Sellers who already have an audience or a product that converts do well; the "make money on Whop" promise you see on social media is usually someone selling a course about it. What selling on Whop actually involves.
What is the minimum payout on Whop?
Whop's documentation states a minimum withdrawal threshold of $10 where applicable. Payouts go to a bank account via Whop Payments, or directly to PayPal or Coinbase Commerce. Payout details.
Why is there a Whop charge on my card?
You, or someone with your card, bought a membership, course or product from a seller who uses Whop for checkout. The charge shows Whop's name because Whop processes the payment. How to identify and cancel it.
