Community pricing

Community pricing options control access to your Arketa community portals — discussion forums, bonus content, videos, and programs that live inside a community. You can offer community access as a standalone purchase or bundle it into memberships.

Create a community pricing option

1. Go to Setup → Pricing Options

2. Click Add New

3. Select Community

4. Configure:

   • Name — what clients see - Price — one-time or recurring charge for access - Community — which community portal this grants access to - Duration — how long access lasts (or ongoing for memberships)

5. Save and make active

Bundle community access into a membership

The most common approach is to include community access as part of a membership, not as a separate purchase. When creating or editing a membership:

1. Go to the membership settings
2. Look for Include Community
3. Select which community/communities the membership includes

Members will automatically have access to the selected communities while their membership is active. When the membership expires or cancels, community access ends.

Use cases

• Premium tier — your main membership includes classes; an upgraded tier adds community access
• 30-day challenge — sell one-time community access for a specific program
• Online-only community — for clients who want to participate in your content without attending classes
• Coaching program — a community portal with bonus videos, resources, and discussion for program participants
