Thinkific takes no percentage of your sales when you use its built-in payment processing, which makes its published price close to the whole price. Its plans are separated by what they can do rather than how big you are: every paid plan covers the same number of students and unlimited courses, and what you pay more for is live cohorts, certificates, communities, branding removal and API access.
That shape makes it unusually predictable. A creator who grows their student base does not walk into a bill increase, which is the opposite of how most of this category works.
Thinkific was founded in 2012 and is headquartered in Vancouver, Canada.
