Hopper vs Skool
One Skool plan runs one community. One Hopper plan runs all of them.
Skool Pro charges $99 a month for every community you open. Hopper gives you unlimited hubs, one for each business or 1:1 client, from US $58 a month.

How many businesses or 1:1 clients do you run?
You keep $2,868 a year.
Plan prices only, before transaction fees. Skool Pro at $99 a month per community, as published August 2026.
Unlimited hubs
Every business gets its own hub. You still pay once.
Run a pre-recorded short course with a one-time price in one hub, your membership in another, and give each high-ticket client their own Private Client Space. On Skool, each of those is another $99 a month.
- Unlimited members, moderators and hubs
- Unlimited products in your shop
- One bill, one login
The two-community trap
Skool won't let you go from free to high ticket. So coaches pay for two communities.
Skool's freemium ladder is fixed: Free, Premium, VIP. You can't switch off Premium, so there is no path from a free tier straight to a high-ticket offer. You are forced into free, then a lower ticket, then high ticket for a small few.
The workaround is two communities. A free one to attract, a separate one for high ticket. Two bills, two places to manage, and the free community is usually the first to be neglected.
On Hopper, every tier is optional and there is no cap. Go from free straight to high ticket, or build ten levels if your business needs them, all inside one hub, each with its own free trial.
Unlimited tiers, unlimited products
Three paid tiers is Skool's ceiling. Hopper doesn't have one.
A Skool community tops out at three paid tiers, or two if you also want a free one. Want a fourth offer? That means opening another community, and another $99 a month.
On Hopper, you add another tier or another product. No limit, no extra plan.
And any product can hold anything. Attach any content or community channel to it, so a course plus a private channel, a single masterclass, or a full programme is packaged in a few clicks.
- Unlimited membership tiers in every hub
- Attach any content or channel to any product
- Unlimited products: courses, podcasts, digital downloads, services, physical goods
- Tiers inside any product for different levels of access
Flexible subscriptions
Bill members the way they want to pay.
A 12-week programme billed quarterly. A weekly accountability group. Loyalty pricing that drops the monthly rate for members who stay a year. Skool has nothing like it.
