KAJABIvsPatreon
Here are a few reasons why creators decide to switch to Kajabi (and why you might, too).
Quick Comparison Guide
Patreon takes a cut and keeps your fanbase behind a paywall. Kajabi gives you full ownership — of your audience, your content, and your income — with zero platform fees so you’re earning revenue, not asking for tips.
Features |  | Patreon |
|---|---|---|
Business Model | All-in-one platform to sell courses, memberships, and more! | Platform for creators to earn through subscriptions |
Revenue Control | You control prices, payments, and customer details. | Patreon handles payments and limits access to customer info |
Customization | Easy-to-use web builder with full design and branding control | Simple pages with limited customization |
Fees | Fixed monthly fee (starting at $89/month) | Takes a 10–12% cut, plus extra fees for processing payments |
Monetization Options | Sell courses, coaching, and digital products in one place. | Earn through fan subscriptions and exclusive content. |
Build Your Business.
Own your brand.
Kajabi offers complete ownership and control over your brand and business, with no revenue cuts, full branding capabilities, and the ability to sell diverse digital products, unlike Patreon's fan-funding model and revenue share.

"...people are longing for genuine connections"
"Offering an online community is a big part of the course experience for my students. The online community allows us to come alongside each other during the duration of the course. Students can ask questions, post their homework pages, receive encouragement, and engage with their classmates from around the world! Business is about connecting with people. I believe people are longing for genuine connections and having a private community has been a huge blessing to me and my students."

"...we can provide a more engaging learning experience for our students..."
"Having a great community that’s built into our Kajabi membership platform is a game changer for our business. With Kajabi Communities, we can provide a more engaging learning experience for our students and make it easier for them to connect with each. Plus, (and most importantly) our members can get their learning, support AND community all on the one platform. From a business perspective, Communities allows us to simplify announcements, notifications and challenges to our students, so it’s a win-win."
