What is Circle?
Circle is a community platform that combines discussions, courses, live streams, events and paid memberships into a single branded space. Community owners organize members into spaces for chat, content and events, and can charge for access through subscriptions, one time fees or installment plans in more than 20 currencies. Built in tools include a website builder, member directory, analytics and gamification, positioning it as an alternative to running a community across several disconnected apps.
Pricing starts with the Professional plan and moves up through Business and Circle Plus, with each tier adding automation, API access, AI features and lower transaction fees. All plans include a 14 day free trial and a 30 day money back guarantee, though there is no permanent free plan and email marketing is a separate paid add-on.
