Your own Skool community for just $9!?

⭐

Big news for everyone who’s been waiting to start their own Skool community:

You can now get started for just $9/month! 🎉

I basically summed up their video content with ChatGPT because it's the best way to show you what's possible and what not.

It also takes away the fear a little bit to jump into an investment of $99 to only get the experience and see if it makes sense for you.

Here we go:

They call it the Hobby Plan, and it gives you access to all the essentials you need to build and grow a thriving group.

Here’s what you get for just $9/month:

✅ Unlimited members

✅ Unlimited courses

✅ Native video hosting

✅ Community + classroom in one

✅ Ability to charge money and earn

✅ Basic plugins (like membership questions, chat, and posting controls)

Perfect if you’re just getting started or want to build a fun, passion-driven group without a big commitment.

🆚 What’s different from the $99 Pro Plan?

The Hobby Plan is incredibly powerful — but there are a few limitations compared to the Pro Plan:

🔸 Admins: Hobby = 1 admin (you) | Pro = Unlimited admins

🔸 Transaction fees: Hobby = 10% | Pro = 2.9%

🔸 URL & Branding: Hobby doesn’t allow a custom URL and shows suggested communities in your sidebar (with a little “powered by Skool” badge).

🔸 Affiliate features: Hobby doesn’t include auto-affiliate attribution (but you can still use your affiliate link).

🔸 Pro Plugins: Some advanced plugins are locked on the Hobby Plan.

🔸 Leaderboard customization: Hobby shows suggested communities instead of a leaderboard.

Why did Skool do this?

The team’s mission is to help a billion people find community. They realized the $99/month plan was a barrier for many hobbyists and passion projects — so they created the Hobby Plan to lower the entry point without compromising the core experience.

You still get all the fundamental tools to create and grow — and you can always upgrade later when you’re ready.

What’s next?

Skool is already planning even more exciting features — all of which will also be available on the Hobby Plan:

🌟 Native live streaming (goodbye Zoom!)

🌟 Apple & Google Pay

🌟 Subscription courses (paid tiers inside your group)

So if you (or someone you know) has been thinking about starting a Skool community — now is the perfect time.

For just $9/month, you get everything you need to get going — with a 14-day free trial to test it out.
