Samcart Pricing Overview

I don't have any. Their support is all done through videos online. They tell you in the beginning it will only take 14 days to create your course. That is a lie! It takes you 14 days just to go through the training videos. Then, after going through all the training videos you have to make so many of your own videos to post that after a year I'm still not done trying to make this work.

They are very misleading when they sell this to you. As soon as they get your money all your support is in training videos. There's no one to help you. They say in their ads that it only takes you 14 days to create your course. That is a lie! Point it takes you more than 14 days to even get through their training videos on how to create your videos and content! There's absolutely no support other than the training videos. You were on your own! And then They want to keep on charging you annually for not even being able to use it! I was just charged $349 that I didn't know I was going to be charged because I was led to believe it was a one time fee when I signed up a year ago. Now I'm trying to get them to refund the money after zero support for a year and I'm having a lot of problems! Please do not sign up for this there are many other course building platforms out there that are much more supportive.

It's not benefitting me in Any Way. I paid over $300 to buy this believing it was a one time fee and once I got in and realize that all the training is done by video and then you have to film your own videos of which are so many as well as the continent that it's almost impossible to complete your course. And the only support is through their training videos.

Love the drag and drop options when building a sales/checkout page. Easy interface so anyone on our team can figure out how to use it.

would love a live chat support option for when you're building a site... otherwise have to wait long time to fix one error... also an option to add an accounting email to client's account would be nice to send copies to both - employee who purchased our product and a copy to accounting dept. also we have a product with different price points... the system makes us create a NEW product each time... can we create it once and then just have multiple price points under it? It's not super clear on how to add an additional product to a client on the back end. we've figured it out but it wasn't super logical.

1 page website is awesome Would also love to see stats from other users - which templates are converting the best and also seeing examples of what's performing best. integrations with our CRM is awesome mainly solving the sales / sale cart and now have started using the 1 page website -- great for low cost products... Can you also add a 2 step website ( sales page --> check out page) for high ticket products? then this will help us solve the need of using another platform for the sales page.

Samcart is a tool that, out of the box, let's you integrate with a lot of different pieces of software, helping you "close the gaps" on any technology pieces you might have needed to get some sales going with your funnel. I use it for my online course, and switching to it has helped me have more insight and more control over the last stage of the sales process--the checkout. Samcart can be used for other things (which I'll eventually probably get around to) but for the few functions (of many) I'm using it for, it's been a great tool. Well worth the price.

So far I don't have any qualms with the software at all. Happy to be using it. There eventually will need to be a bit more options for editing the checkout page, but I'm happy with it for sure.

I was using teachable for everything previously--hosting my course, sending emails and accepting payment, tracking sales, etc. The SERIOUS problem with teachable that made me refuse to use it outside of hosting my course is that there was absolutely no data on how many monthly subscribers I had, what their balances were, etc. I was also not able to manually charge anyone or do anything outside of the most rigid functions of people being able to just sign up, pay on time and use the course. Samcart gives me that insight. Samcart also has a much better, customizable checkout page whereas Teachable is pretty much doing what they can to LOWER conversions. Since switching over, our conversion rates have certainly gone up. So nowadays, again, Teachable hosts my course content, while I manage sales and subscriptions, and different checkout page types and different products, price points, testing and all that through Samcart. Makes a world of a difference.

I love how easy it is to use with all the drag and drop features.

If you want all of the additional features, it's easy to get priced out if you're a small business and can't afford hundreds of dollars a month.

We've been able to up our order values with upsells!

Not only is the checkout fast and easy to set up, but the instant upsell funnel post-purchase has been a game-changer for us in increasing lifetime customer value.

The checkout designs look a bit outdated and their layout is not that customizable. Also, the price is rather high. There are also a few bugs in their reporting when filtering on dates.

Samcart makes it easy for us to offer our customers our products. Samcart also integrates with Zapier, which makes it very flexible, and we can instantly enroll customers in our courses after purchase.

It's hard to choose just one! The automated emails for failed payments is great because it's one less task that we have to worry about keeping up with and the affiliate program is great feature to offer members of ours to share with their community and expand our reach while rewarding them. The ease of setting up checkout pages and creating specific offers for each product or service is great, it's nice to be able to integrate two cart offerings, like a monthly payment or a paid in full discount cart on the same checkout page. The bump ups are also great for increasing sales right before checkout.

Some limitations in automations with Kajabi, we have found workarounds for these though with the help of support. I would like to see a different view for payments that fail other than the static view of all transactions, something that shows per person when their payment failed and then once they acknowledge one of the auto emails and update their payment information, and then once their payment clears.

Streamlining business tasks and receiving payments with ease. Being able to setup multiple products quickly and easily how been very helpful in the growth of our business. Setting up an affiliate program has been a great benefit that we can offer to our members to reward them for sharing a membership they find value in with their friends and family.

The SamCart platform is easy to use and their templates are very helpful. What I really like about SamCart is their genuine interest in seeing us, Visual Thrive, succeed. Our Customer Success Manage has spent much time answering our questions, offering wonderful feedback on best practices of using their service to make more sales in an efficient way. Also, I feel they have gone the extra mile to make sure we are successful. I like the idea they do not take a percentage of our sales. We get check-ins from time-to-time and our Customer Success Manager answers our questions quickly. I have also used their online chat feature and they have always been responsive to our tech questions.

I actually do not have any dislikes for this platform and company. It has been a good match for us and I had tried other platforms and solutions before signing up with SamCart.

Many of our clients are subscription-based and SamCart allows me to manage those subscriptions efficiently and without paying a percentage of our sales. It has also allowed us to offer products that are for sale online and are easy to manage with automatic downloads.

These guys are not at all interested in conducting business or providing a service. They just want to take your money and run. They trick you into re-occurring payments and don't advise you before running your card. Once they do, they will say it is now "too late" to cancel making it next to impossible to ever actually cancel without notifying your bank that they are no longer authorized to charge your card. They are impossible to work with because they do not care about quality of product or reputation, only in getting your money. Buyer beware!

Unethical business practices, useless product compared to competitors, lack of customer service, pricing

None, they are the problem.
