Quick Answer

CommunitiesOS offers three plans — Foundation at $97/month, Growth at $297/month, and Authority at $497/month — all with $0 transaction fees, unlimited members, and US-based support. Annual billing gives you 12 months for the price of 10. No member caps. No upgrade triggers. No hidden costs.

Everything That Matters Is Included on Every Plan

Most platforms gate the features organizations actually need behind their most expensive tiers. CommunitiesOS doesn't. Every plan — Foundation, Growth, and Authority — includes the full platform. What changes between plans is the level of support and strategic capacity, not what you can do.

$0 Transaction Fees. Not a Footnote — a Founding Principle.

Most community platforms charge a percentage of every dollar your members pay you. That fee is silent when you're small and punishing when you grow. CommunitiesOS charges $0 in transaction fees on every plan — Foundation, Growth, and Authority — because taking a cut of mission-driven revenue is something we chose never to do.

Your Revenue2% Fee ElsewhereOn CommunitiesOS
$50,000$1,000 lost$0
$100,000$2,000 lost$0
$250,000$5,000 lost$0
$500,000$10,000 lost$0
$1,000,000$20,000 lost$0
At $100,000 in member revenue, a 2% transaction fee costs your organization $2,000 every year — more than the cost of the CommunitiesOS Growth plan. The platform pays for itself before you count a single other benefit.

Unlimited Members. Because Your Church, Nonprofit, or Association Shouldn't Hit a Ceiling.

Circle's Professional plan caps admins at 3 and moderators at 10. Skool's Hobby tier limits you to 1 admin. Mighty Networks charges more as your moderator and host count grows. Across every major platform, growth is taxed — either through transaction fees, seat limits, or upgrade triggers. On CommunitiesOS, unlimited means unlimited. Every plan. No upgrade trigger when your membership grows.

For a church with 400 members, a nonprofit with 600 volunteers, or a professional association adding chapters — the moment you hit a competitor's cap is the moment the platform stops serving your mission and starts extracting from it. CommunitiesOS was built so that moment never comes.

Annual Billing: Two Free Months on Every Plan

When you choose annual billing, you pay for 10 months and get 12. That's not a rounding difference — it's a meaningful savings your organization can redirect to the work that matters.

FOUNDATION ANNUAL
$970/year
Save $194 vs. monthly
GROWTH ANNUAL
$2,970/year
Save $594 vs. monthly
AUTHORITY ANNUAL
$4,970/year
Save $994 vs. monthly

For a nonprofit or church operating on a budget, nearly $200 to $1,000 in annual savings is real money. Annual billing is available on every plan and requires no long-term contract beyond the billing year.

Which Plan Fits Your Organization

CommunitiesOS serves mission-driven organizations across the United States — from single-location churches to multi-chapter professional associations operating nationally.

FOUNDATION — $97/MONTH

You're launching your first private community or moving off Facebook Groups. Your organization needs a clean, structured space for announcements, discussions, and member connection — without the complexity of enterprise tools or the risk of a platform that doesn't understand mission-driven work. Foundation gives you the full CommunitiesOS platform at the lowest entry point in the market for what it delivers.

Built for churches and nonprofits launching their first private community platform — or moving off Facebook Groups into a space they own.

GROWTH — $297/MONTH

Your community is active. You're running events, delivering courses, coordinating committees, and managing members across multiple channels. Growth is built for organizations that have outgrown their starter setup and need the full CommunitiesOS capability set running at scale — without paying transaction fees on every dollar members spend.

AUTHORITY — $497/MONTH

You're an established organization: a multi-chapter professional association, a large nonprofit managing programs across regions, or a church running a full ministry platform. Authority is built for organizations where community is central to operations — not a feature they're testing, but the infrastructure their mission runs on.

What Circle, Skool, and Mighty Networks Actually Cost Mission-Driven Organizations

The advertised price is never the full price. Every major community platform builds its revenue model on transaction fees, seat limits, and upgrade triggers — costs that compound as your organization grows. Here's what those platforms actually cost when you add it up.

Circle

Professional plan starts at $89/month with a 2% transaction fee on every payment. Business plan ($199/month) drops to 1%. Enterprise ($419/month) reaches 0.5%. Branded email notifications are an additional $40/month. Custom profile fields cost an additional $49/month. There is no nonprofit discount. For a nonprofit processing $100,000 in member revenue on the Professional plan, Circle's transaction fee alone costs $2,000 per year — on top of the $1,068 annual subscription.

Full comparison: CommunitiesOS vs Circle

Skool

The Hobby plan ($9/month) charges 10% transaction fees. The Pro plan ($99/month) drops to 2.9%. No white-label branding on any plan. No nonprofit discount. For a church running paid events or membership programs, Skool's 2.9% fee on $50,000 in revenue costs $1,450 per year — in addition to the $1,188 annual subscription.

Full comparison: CommunitiesOS vs Skool

Mighty Networks

Launch plan starts at $95/month with transaction fees of 2–3%. Branded apps only available at the Growth level ($354/month). Scale plan is $215/month. No nonprofit discount confirmed. At $100,000 in revenue on the Launch plan, Mighty Networks transaction fees cost $2,000–$3,000 per year on top of the subscription.

Full comparison: CommunitiesOS vs Mighty Networks

Circle charges 2% transaction fees on its $89/month Professional plan. Skool charges 2.9% on its $99/month Pro plan. Mighty Networks charges 2–3% on its $95/month Launch plan. CommunitiesOS charges $0 on Foundation, Growth, and Authority. The monthly price is the full price.

Pricing That Respects the Mission

CommunitiesOS is a private community platform built exclusively for mission-driven organizations — churches, nonprofits, professional associations, membership organizations, alumni networks, and volunteer organizations. Every pricing decision starts with one question: does this work for an organization whose primary goal is not revenue extraction, but community impact?

“I built CommunitiesOS because I kept watching mission-driven organizations do important work on platforms that didn't care about them. Churches, nonprofits, and associations — the organizations actually holding communities together — deserve the same quality of tools as the largest enterprises, at a price that respects their mission. That felt wrong enough to build something about it.”— Sedrick Harris

$0 transaction fees is not a promotional offer. It is a founding principle. Unlimited members is not a feature unlock. It is baseline. US-based support is not a premium add-on. It is standard. CommunitiesOS pricing is built the way it is because the organizations it serves made that the only acceptable choice.

CommunitiesOS serves churches, nonprofits, and associations across the United States, with pricing designed for organizations at every stage of growth.
