New Zenler Pricing 

Many online platforms have made it super easy to host, market, and sell your online courses.

Online platforms have several different categories, but the ones that make this the easiest are  all-in-ones platforms, which combine all of the tools you need.

Among these, New Zenler is one of the most popular because of all it offers at an affordable price!

Indeed a lot of times, starting course creators have the dilemma of wanting to keep things simple, which an all-in-one helps doing, but also can't necessarily afford the investment it represents.

Since many people consider investing in New Zenler, people always ask me what to know and what you are getting with that price. 

So, I decided to create an article to break down everything around the pricing of New Zenler and answer all of these questions and more to help you make a confident decision.

New Zenler is currently still in beta and offers two plans at this phase of its development:

Pro plan - $447 per year (full price will be $1170/year) OR $67 per month

Premium - $1167 per year (full price will be $5970/year) OR $197 per month

Before we get into the details of what each plan includes, you should know that there are no transaction fees associated with any of the pricing plans. 

This is also a limited-time price that has been extended after COVID. 

Now let's break down the different pricing and features of each to see which one could be the best fit for you.

If you want to read a full review of the New Zenler features and how they compare to another all-in-one, see the full review here.

Looking at the pricing chart above, the main difference between the two plans is the limit you will have on several features. 

But, it’s good to know that there aren't any features that you won't get by going with the Pro plan.

This is a big difference with most other platforms that will have a cheap basic plan that will not have enough features to use the platform fully. Eventually, users decide they need to upgrade to the second plan to use the advanced features. 

That's not the case with New Zenler, and here is a breakdown of the limit of the features that will differ from the Pro plan ($647 per year) and the Premium plan ($1447 per year).

So, generally, most people will be fine with the Pro plan since it still offers enough for beginner course creators. 

It shouldn't be a problem for most creators to have just 100k emails per month and have a list of up to 25,000 people. 

And there is also plenty for the number of sites and automation and marketing funnels. 

However, some people may go for the premium plan because the lower plans have a limited number of live attendees. If you're running some group coaching or free event/webinars then the limit might be an important factor in which plan you choose.

That said, you're probably comparing this pricing with other popular platforms, so let's break this down here to see how New Zenler compares.

The first thing to understand when comparing online course platforms is the category they're in.

As mentioned before, New Zenler is an all-in-one platform which means that it stands as a self-hosted tool that can provide you everything you need to market and sell your online courses in one place.

Platforms like Teachable or Thinkific wouldn't be a fair comparison because these are meant to just be hosting your online course and they do not have all the bells and whistles of New Zenler.

The major competitors of New Zenler include:

And here are all 3 pricing plans options:

So to summarize:

Kajabi starts at $119/mo. with one website, 3 courses, and 10,000 contacts for the Basic plan.
Kartra starts at $99/mo. with 2 sites, 20 courses, and 2,500 contacts for the Starter plan.
Podia starts at $39/mo. with 1 site, unlimited courses, and contacts. 

New Zenler’s pricing is:

Pro plan: $54 per month ($647 per year)
Premium plan: $120.50 per month($1,447 per year)

So, from a strictly pricing perspective, New Zenler is cheaper than most of its competitors!

Now, let's break down each of these to see how they individually compare to New Zenler.

How does Kajabi pricing compare to New Zenler?

Kajabi is the most popular online course platform out there, so the comparison here is critical.

One of the key things to note feature-wise is the superior course design capabilities of Kajabi over New Zenler. See here our full review for Kajabi vs New Zenler.

But, Kajabi is definitely on the higher end of the pricing and investment spectrum, which comes with a few great benefits such as platform longevity, a great community, etc.

Again, here is the breakdown of Kajabi's pricing:

How does Kartra pricing compare to New Zenler?

Kartra is also a popular all-in-one online platform and has gained a solid user base over the years.

Kartra offers more advanced features than New Zenler. For example, Kartra has a full CRM system and advanced automation. See our full review of New Zenler vs Kartra

Kartra is also about 3x more expensive than New Zenler, and therefore you will have to weigh out whether you need the extra whistle and bells for the higher investment.

And here are all the Kartra pricing plan options:

How does Podia pricing compare to New Zenler?

Finally, Podia is another popular all-in-one platform that's also reputed to be affordable.

However, Podia has fewer and less powerful features compared to the platforms we've mentioned.

Additionally, its page builder and email marketing system are basic and lack the flexibility needed to build a high-conversion funnel for your online courses.

But Podia is still an affordable all-in-one course platform and worth considering and comparing to New Zenler.

Here are Podia’s pricing plans:

So, all things considered, what plan should your pick? 

New Zenler is adding features and improving the platform regularly. 

And it seems like their strategy with the pricing plan is not to limit features based on the plan that you're choosing, but simply to limit quantity for some of these features like they are now with contact, marketing funnels, etc.

So, your choice of the plan shouldn't be based on what features you need but what size you need them in!

For most course creators the cheaper Pro plan will do just fine until you scale things up and develop an advanced marketing system.

Unless you have a real need for the live attendees and it's worth the extra money, then go for the Premium!

1) Does New Zenler have any transaction fee?

No. There are no transaction fees for any money you make selling your products on New Zenler and no payout fee either, although your payment gateway (Stripe, PayPal) will probably charge you a fee for that.

2) Why is New Zenler in beta?

New Zenler is a relatively new platform and has been prudent to grow at a sustainable pace. That's why it's only available with an invite and is still building its feature set. 

The great news is that during this beta phase, the pricing plans are  massively discounted and it is a great opportunity to jump on!

3) New Zenler pricing sounds too good to be true, is there a catch?

Nah. I know what you're thinking, but the relatively low current pricing New Zenler has adopted is purely from a strategic perspective. 

As they're joining this somewhat crowded industry, they've bet on trying to build their user base as fast as possible in the beginning, and they will attract a lot of people by undercutting other all-in-ones out there. 

This does mean that, in my opinion, this pricing won't stay there for long!

4) Do I need a credit card to start a New Zenler trial?

You don't. You can create an account right now and start using the platform for free until you decide to upgrade or not, and only then will you need to enter your credit card details.

5) I'm wary about new shiny platforms; how reliable is New Zenler?

Now, saying that you can have it all, low pricing and quality features, and not have any downside is a stretch. 

Of course, New Zenler still needs some polishing, but that's the case with any new software platforms. This explains the much lower price. 

New Zenler continues to improve its features and provides great support to help you with any quirks or issues you may have!
