Mighty Networks Pricing 2026: What You Pay for the App
Mighty Networks’ annual-billing headline for Launch is $79.00 a month, while monthly billing is $95.00. It is also the platform whose most differentiated app offering sits in a higher tier.
Mighty’s published pricing material presents mobile app access as a plan distinction and presents fully branded apps as a higher-tier offering.
That gap between the headline price and the headline feature is the thing to understand before you commit.
Published pricing
| Plan | Monthly billing | Annual billing | Platform fee | Effective modeled rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Launch | $95.00/mo | $79.00/mo | 2.0% | 4.9%–5.6% + $0.30 |
| Scale | $215.00/mo | $179.00/mo | 1.0% | 3.9%–4.6% + $0.30 |
Mighty Pro is excluded from the numeric comparison because no plan price is included in the published figures reviewed. Source: Mighty Networks pricing; the verification date is shown with this article.
The pricing page opens on the annual tab. The annual figures above are the rates shown first; monthly billing is higher. Comparisons that quote the annual figures as if they were monthly prices are mixing billing bases.
The platform fee stacks on top of Stripe. Mighty publishes the platform-fee component shown above, while Stripe publishes the standard card-processing rate of 2.9% + $0.30. In the model, Launch therefore has an effective rate of 4.9%–5.6% + $0.30, and Scale has 3.9%–4.6% + $0.30. The range marks the inferred subscription surcharge; its applicability is not published by Mighty.
What it costs to run
Members are modeled at the standard member price, using Mighty’s annual rates:
| Platform plan | $500 revenue | $1,000 revenue | $2,000 revenue | $3,000 revenue | $5,000 revenue | $10,000 revenue |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mighty Networks Launch | from $107 to $110 per month†Lowest cost | from $134 to $141 per month†Lowest cost | from $189 to $203 per month†Lowest cost | from $244 to $265 per month†Lowest cost | from $354 to $389 per month†Lowest cost | from $629 to $699 per month†Lowest cost |
| Mighty Networks Scale | from $202 to $205 per month† | from $224 to $231 per month† | from $269 to $283 per month† | from $314 to $335 per month† | from $404 to $439 per month† | from $629 to $699 per month†Lowest cost |
Sources checked through 2026-08-21; individual source dates and verification status: Mighty Networks pricing — plan price and platform fee (checked 2026-08-20) (directly verified); Mighty Networks Stripe connection — who holds the Stripe account (checked 2026-08-21) (directly verified); Stripe US pricing — card processing rate (checked 2026-08-21) (directly verified); Stripe Billing pricing — pay-as-you-go tier rate / charged on Billing volume / one-off invoices excluded (checked 2026-08-21) (directly verified); Circle paywall transaction fees — vendor-side verbatim itemization of Stripe Payments and Stripe Billing rates in a paywall subscription fee example (checked 2026-08-21) (directly verified)
Launch and Scale converge at $10,000/month and cross shortly after. Below that point, Launch is cheaper at every level tested.
The reason is simple: Scale has the higher subscription and the lower platform fee. The break-even above is a single same-vendor comparison because the inferred surcharge state is correlated across Mighty plans.
Do not upgrade to Scale for the fee saving. Compare the published feature differences — automations, deeper analytics, and higher limits — separately from the modeled fee result.
The branded app question
This is the decision that actually matters on Mighty.
Mighty’s published pricing material presents a branded app as a higher-tier offering. No Mighty Pro plan price is included in the published figures reviewed, so no numeric premium is attached to that option.
Ask yourself one question: would your members refuse to download an app with somebody else’s name on it? If a branded app is not required, Launch is the lower-tier priced option in this model. For a membership sold to a corporate audience, or a brand where the app is the product, compare the higher-tier app requirement and quote separately from the modeled cost.
How Mighty positions itself
Mighty calls its customers “hosts” rather than creators and describes a member-to-member community model. It sells a strategy framework it calls Community Design and bundles an AI assistant called AI Cohost.
Those are the company’s own positioning terms, not independently verified product outcomes. Mighty describes its model as member-to-member; this article does not infer how communities actually behave from that description.
Where it lands against the alternatives
At the tested revenue level, using annual billing throughout:
| Platform plan | $5,000 revenue |
|---|---|
| Skool Pro | $258Lowest cost |
| Mighty Networks Launch | from $354 to $389 per month† |
| Circle Professional | $399 |
| Mighty Networks Scale | from $404 to $439 per month† |
| Circle Business | $459 |
Sources checked through 2026-09-06; individual source dates and verification status: Skool pricing — plan price; rendered page checked for both billing states and no plan comparison table or add-on/additional-cost section was present (checked 2026-09-06) (directly verified); Skool Payments FAQs — vendor-published transaction fee rates and per-transaction tiers; payout examples deduct the published fee from the membership price (checked 2026-09-06) (directly verified); Skool analytics definitions — vendor explicitly states that fees collected by Skool cover payment processing (checked 2026-09-06) (directly verified); Mighty Networks pricing — plan price and platform fee (checked 2026-08-20) (directly verified); Mighty Networks Stripe connection — who holds the Stripe account (checked 2026-08-21) (directly verified); Stripe US pricing — card processing rate (checked 2026-08-21) (directly verified); Stripe Billing pricing — pay-as-you-go tier rate / charged on Billing volume / one-off invoices excluded (checked 2026-08-21) (directly verified); Circle paywall transaction fees — vendor-side verbatim itemization of Stripe Payments and Stripe Billing rates in a paywall subscription fee example (checked 2026-08-21) (directly verified); Circle pricing monthly billing availability — three checks of the Professional, Circle Plus, and Business tabs found no billing-period toggle (checked 2026-08-26) (directly verified; operator manual verification)
In this modeled comparison, Mighty Launch is cheaper than Circle Professional and more expensive than Skool Pro. Mighty Scale is more expensive than Launch in this scenario, while the inferred surcharge keeps its absolute cost as a range.
At the highest tested revenue level, Circle Professional costs $10–$45 more than Mighty Launch, while Mighty Launch costs $97–$132 more than Skool Pro. Both are cross-vendor ranges; the same-vendor Launch–Scale break-even above remains a single value.
Which plan should you pick
| If you are… | Plan |
|---|---|
| Anywhere under $10,000/mo revenue | Launch. Scale’s fee saving does not pay for itself |
| Needing automations or deeper analytics | Scale. Buy it for features, not fees |
| Needing your own name in the App Store | Mighty Pro. Request a quote; it is outside this model |
| Choosing on cost alone | Compare against Skool first |
Methodology
- Figures from Mighty Networks’ pricing page, with the verification date shown with this article.
- Stripe is modeled at the standard US online rate of 2.9% + $0.30 (Stripe pricing).
- Scenarios assume the standard member price, one transaction each per month, on annual Mighty billing. Monthly billing is shown separately where Mighty has a recorded monthly price.
- Mighty Pro is excluded because no plan price is included in the published figures reviewed.
