What do you get on Simplero Starter?
On Starter you get a full website and unlimited newsletters, but with caps you hit as the business grows:
- 10 products and 10 courses.
- 1 website with 2 custom domains.
- 500 contacts.
- 1 user with booking.
- Simplero’s branding can only be removed on yearly billing.
Once your list grows past 500 contacts, the price goes up. By comparison, Lumant includes 6,000 contacts in DKK 699 a month excl. VAT.
Is Simplero Danish?
Partly. Simplero was founded in Denmark in 2009 by the Dane Calvin Correli and has a Danish company in Kongens Lyngby, but says its headquarters are in New York today. There are Danes on the team who answer in Danish.
Prices are in dollars. Simplero can calculate EU VAT by the customer’s country, but says handling VAT correctly is your responsibility as the business owner. MobilePay works through QuickPay or MobilePay Online.
Which alternative to Simplero suits you?
The alternative that suits you depends on what you use Simplero for most:
| You mostly use Simplero for | Choose | Because |
|---|---|---|
| Courses, memberships and email | Lumant | Prices in kroner and 6,000 contacts included |
| Booking clients | EasyMe | Danish booking, client notes and MobilePay |
| Keeping the price down | Systeme.io or Podia | A free plan, or from USD 42 a month |
| A large course business | Kajabi | More features, but pricier than Simplero |
| The website | Striive | A full website at a fixed price in kroner; link to your course or booking tool |
When is Simplero the right choice?
Simplero is the right choice when you use most of the platform every week:
- You sell several courses and memberships and build sales sequences with automations.
- You want website, booking, email and payments in one system, not four.
- You need support from someone who answers in Danish.
If you mostly use the website and a few emails, you’re paying for an engine you don’t use.
How do you switch from Simplero?
You switch from Simplero by setting up the new tools first and moving customers last:
- Write down what you use in Simplero today: website, courses, contacts, email, automations, booking and subscriptions.
- Choose the replacement for each part from the table above.
- Build the website. With move your website you give Striive the address of your Simplero website, and Striive rebuilds the pages.
- Move courses and contacts. Check Simplero’s help on how to export, and keep the newsletter consent.
- Ask both vendors whether running subscriptions can be moved, or whether your members need to sign up again.
- Move the domain last, and cancel Simplero once everything runs.
