What does Whop do?
Updated
The short answer
Whop is an online platform where creators sell digital products. You can use it to sell paid communities, courses, digital files, software, and clipping campaigns. Whop handles the checkout and lets buyers pay with cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and crypto. Whop sends your earnings directly to your bank account.
What you can sell on Whop
Whop lets you sell several kinds of digital items. You can set up a paid community for your followers. You can also sell online courses, downloadable files, and software. If you create videos, you can run a clipping campaign.
With Whop Content Rewards, you pay video clippers per thousand views for reposting your clips. Whop also has an App Store. You can install apps from the store directly into your community to add new features for your members.
How to set up and sell your product
First, create your account on Whop. Next, make your space, which Whop calls a whop. This space holds your digital items. Choose what you want to sell, like a private group, a course, or a downloadable file.
After that, set your price and share your checkout link with your audience. When people buy, they pay using a card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or crypto. Whop delivers the product to the buyer right after payment.
Fees and rules to watch out for
Selling on Whop is not free. Whop charges sellers a fee on sales. For most products, this fee is a small fee plus payment processing. Apps and some product categories have different fee rates. Always check Whop's help center for the current number.
Getting your money also has rules. Whop sends your payouts directly to your bank account. However, you must reach a minimum balance before you can withdraw your funds. Check Whop's help center for the current number.
A plain recommendation for creators
If you want to build a paid community or host a course, Whop gives you all the tools in one place. It makes taking payments easy and lets you offer many payment choices to buyers worldwide.
If you just want to sell a simple file, setting up a whole community can slow down your sales. You can install MKKT from the Whop App Store. It lets you upload a file, set a price or make it free, and share a store link that buyers can use without a Whop account.
