Is Kajabi worth it for beginners?
Kajabi itself points people with no sales yet to Basic, which is $1,716 a year. That makes sense if it replaces tools you would otherwise pay for (website, email, community and checkout). If you only need to sell one course, course-only platforms start far lower, for example Teachable Starter at $29/mo or Thinkific Start at $82/mo billed yearly (Thinkific removed its Basic plan in October 2026).
What happens to my content if I cancel Kajabi?
Per Kajabi's help center, your site goes offline at the end of the billing or trial period and customers lose access to the products they bought. Customer data may be deleted 90 days after termination, so download videos and contact lists first. Customer subscriptions are not cancelled automatically; you must cancel each one.
Kajabi vs Teachable: which is cheaper?
Teachable is cheaper to start. Billed yearly, Kajabi Basic is $1,716 a year, while Teachable Starter is $348 ($29/mo, with a 7.5% transaction fee) and Teachable Builder is $828 ($69/mo, 0% Teachable fee on Teachable Payments); Teachable prices checked Oct 17, 2026. Kajabi's price also covers email marketing, funnels and a community.
Does Kajabi have a mobile app?
Yes. On every plan, customers can take your courses and community in the Kajabi app on iPhone and Android. Your own branded app in the App Store is a Pro feature ($399/mo billed yearly).
