Payhip review

Payhip suits the digital product side of Whop sellers better than almost anything else here. Every plan, including the free one, gets the same features and unlimited products and revenue; the plans only differ in how much Payhip keeps. The free plan takes 5% of each sale, Plus takes 2% and Pro takes nothing, so you can start at zero cost and move up once the fee outweighs the subscription. It sells downloads, online courses, coaching, memberships and physical products from a store builder with themes, and it includes email marketing. Payhip collects and remits EU and UK VAT and US and Canadian sales tax on digital sales, which saves a lot of admin for small sellers. Payments arrive in your PayPal or Stripe account right after each sale, with standard processor fees. The gap is community: Payhip has no built-in member feed or chat integration, so Discord-led sellers should look at LaunchPass. Its pricing page blocked our checker, so the price is marked pending.

Who it is for

Sellers of ebooks, templates and courses who want a free start and lower fees as revenue grows.
