Claim this listingFindThatSoftware verdictEditorial ruling
Shortlist Kajabi if you are an Indian coach or educator already earning steadily and want courses, community, email, funnels and checkout in one place instead of paying for four tools. Before paying, confirm you can actually get paid: Kajabi Payments is not offered to India-registered businesses, so check that your Stripe or PayPal account works for your customers and supports the payment methods they use.
Read the full verdict
The subscription is billed in US dollars with tax added by billing address, and India is not in Kajabi's tax ID list, so do not expect a GST invoice you can claim input credit on. The honest trade-off is cost: a cheaper course host or an Indian platform with native UPI and GST invoicing will serve a new creator better, while Kajabi earns its price only once your list and product range are large enough to use the bundled marketing tools. Use the 14 day trial and the 30 day refund window to test checkout end to end before committing to annual billing.
FindThatSoftware has source-checked this listing and keeps 11 public sources visible for buyer verification.
In short
Kajabi is listed under Online Course & LMS, reviewed for Indian buyers. All-in it runs about ₹13,892/mo for a GST-registered business ($143/mo sticker plus about 3.5% card forex). It does not issue an India GST invoice, so a registered business reclaims the GST via reverse charge. FindThatSoftware rates it best for established coaches and educators who want courses, community and marketing in one tool; a poor fit for new or budget-conscious Indian creators who need low cost, INR billing and UPI checkout.

More
Only your first charge is refundable within 30 days, after that payments are nonrefundable, and annual renewals bill at whatever the published price is then, with no price lock. Contacts above your plan limit are sold as paid blocks, so a growing email list can raise your bill without a plan change.
Indicative, not a bill. The exchange rate is a single mid-market reference, not a live feed, and GST-registered businesses may reclaim input credit. Confirm current pricing on the vendor site.

What it is, what you gain, what you give up, and who should look elsewhere.
What is Kajabi?
Kajabi is a hosted platform from Kajabi, LLC, a US company based in Irvine, California, for experts who sell courses, coaching, memberships, communities, digital downloads, podcasts and paid newsletters. One subscription bundles the website and custom domain, landing pages, funnels, unlimited email sends, checkout, a contact CRM and a customer mobile app, with an AI assistant called Cofounder and a connector for Claude and other AI tools; Expert Agents is still listed as coming soon. Plans are flat priced rather than per seat and are capped by products, contacts and admin users, with API access, code editing and your own branded App Store app reserved for the top plan. Kajabi does not support SCORM or HTML5 course packages, and its own payment processing and sales tax tools are only offered to businesses registered in the US, Canada, Australia, the UAE, the UK and parts of Europe, so Indian sellers collect money through Stripe or PayPal instead.
What you gain, and what you give up.
The case for
- One subscription covers courses, coaching, memberships, community, website, funnels, unlimited email and checkout
- Flat pricing with no per-seat charge and no revenue share on your sales
- Upsells, order bumps, affiliate programs and advanced automations for running real launches
The catch
- Billed in US dollars by a US entity with tax added on top; India is not in the tax ID list, so no GST input credit
- Kajabi Payments, its sales tax tool and its accounting integrations are not available to India-registered sellers, who must rely on Stripe or PayPal
- Entry plan is expensive, caps you at 5 products and 2,500 contacts, and extra contacts are sold in costly blocks
- No SCORM or HTML5 course packages and no SSO, so it does not suit formal corporate or academic training
Best for
- Established coaches and educators who want courses, community and marketing in one tool
- Creators replacing separate website, email, checkout and course subscriptions
- Membership and community businesses with recurring revenue
Who should avoid it
- New or budget-conscious Indian creators who need low cost, INR billing and UPI checkout
- Indian businesses that need a GST invoice for input credit or native GST handling on their own sales
- Companies and institutions needing SCORM, SSO or a compliance-grade LMS

Kajabi questions
Does Kajabi give a GST invoice in India?
- Kajabi does not issue an India GST invoice. A GST-registered business can still reclaim the 18% through the reverse-charge route by raising a self-invoice, but there is no vendor GST invoice to claim against directly.
Is Kajabi good for Indian small businesses?
- It suits established coaches and educators who want courses, community and marketing in one tool. It bills in a foreign currency with no India GST invoice, so expect the card forex markup and reverse-charge GST paperwork. It is not the right pick for new or budget-conscious Indian creators who need low cost, INR billing and UPI checkout.
Does Kajabi have a free plan?
- Kajabi does not list a permanent free plan in FindThatSoftware data. Check the official pricing page for trial terms and current offers.
