Every plan, side by side
Every plan starts with the full platform. The higher tiers add more people, more email, and deeper ways to monetize.

What you're paying for the old stack
Most community organizations are already paying $300+ per month across five separate tools that don't talk to each other. Kannect replaces the whole thing.
- Eventbrite~$99 + per-ticket fees
- Mailchimp~$99
- Circle or Mighty Networks~$99
- Squarespace or WordPress~$25
- Member spreadsheet + Zapier~$20
- Events, CRM, memberships, campaigns, directories
- Announcements, messaging, triggered emails, broadcast
- Community website on your domain
- Member app on iOS and Android
- 1.5% fee on paid events, no per-ticket flat fee
Stack prices are rough averages for a mid-size community. Your actual old-stack bill is often higher once you add all your integrations, overage fees, and tier upgrades as you grow.
Replace six to ten tools with one platform
One bill, not a stack of them
Everything above becomes one platform, one login, one place your team works. No more integrations to stitch together, no more subscriptions to reconcile.
Independent, never sold off
Bending Spoons owns Meetup and Eventbrite, and its playbook is price hikes and cut support. Kannect is founder-run and accountable to communities, not to an acquirer.
Verified and spam-free
Every organization is credit-card verified, so the network stays free of bots, scams, and fake listings. When a member finds your community, they know it is real.
Trusted by real communities
Nonprofits, chambers, schools, and civic groups run on Kannect. New organizations join every week.
Need your own branded mobile app or multi-community setup?
Every Kannect plan already runs on your own domain with your branding. If you need a fully branded native mobile app under your organization's name, or an enterprise multi-community architecture for chapters or regional networks, explore our white-label and enterprise plans.
Pricing questions, answered
Do all plans include a free trial?
Yes. Every plan includes a 7-day free trial so you can explore Kannect with your real community before you commit.
Is a credit card required to start?
Yes. A card starts your trial, and it is how Kannect stays verified and spam-free by stopping bots and fake organizations. You can cancel anytime during the trial and will not be charged.
Can I pay monthly or yearly?
Both. You can pay month to month, or pay yearly and save 20%. There is no long-term contract either way, and you can change at any time.
What does the people limit include, and is there an admin limit?
The people limit covers everyone in your community — members, attendees, staff, students, supporters. Admins are counted separately and have their own limit per plan: 3 (Starter), 5 (Launch), 10 (Growth), 25 (Scale).
How do payments and fees work?
Kannect charges a 2% platform fee on paid events, programs, and memberships, dropping to 1.5% on Growth and 1% on Scale, and 0% on nonprofit donations. Standard Stripe processing fees apply.
What if I outgrow my plan?
Upgrade anytime as your community grows, and your people, events, content, and history move with you. If you only need a little more room, add a people pack instead of changing tiers.
What happens if I cancel mid-term?
You can cancel anytime from your account settings or by emailing us. There are no cancellation fees. Your plan continues through the end of the current billing period — the rest of the month on monthly plans, or the rest of the annual term on annual plans. We do not prorate refunds for unused time in the current billing period.
Do we need our own domain and email to start?
No. Every Kannect plan comes with a web address at web.kannect.co/yourorg and a sending email at yourorg@mail.kannect.co, so you can launch immediately even if you don't own a domain yet. Add your own custom domain and sending address whenever you're ready. Your community, content, and members come with you.
Start free. Upgrade when you are ready.
A 7-day free trial on every plan. Set up your community in under five minutes.
