A monthly subscription to gain access to these tools may seem like a huge commitment to creators starting out on the road, but Kajabi offers transparent one fee payment and does not take commission on sales which many other platforms do. If you sell 1000 courses at $199 each, and pay 10% to the platform your fees will be over $19 900.
