In short
Is Tribearn a Kajabi alternative for India?
Yes. Tribearn is a course and membership platform for Indian creators: you sell self-paced courses, live cohorts and memberships with UPI checkout, prices in rupees and GST invoices from the Starter plan. Courses need the Growth plan (up to 3 published) or Scale (up to 10), and your Kajabi members can be imported with a dry run first. The Free plan is ₹0 a month and takes 10% of each sale; Starter (₹499 a month), Growth (₹1,499) and Scale (₹3,999) lower that to 5%, 3% and nothing.
| Plan | Price per month | Commission on sales |
|---|---|---|
| Free | ₹0 | 10% |
| Starter | ₹499 | 5% |
| Growth | ₹1,499 | 3% |
| Scale | ₹3,999 | None |

What you can sell
What an Indian course creator usually goes looking for
The reasons for looking tend to be local and practical: whether students can pay by UPI, whether the price is in rupees, whether the invoice will survive your accountant, and whether a course, a live cohort and a membership can live on one page with one checkout. Those are the things this page is about.

In detail
The differences that actually decide it
Read this first
Courses are on Growth and Scale
Memberships, events, products and bookings are on every plan, including Free. Courses and live cohorts are not — they start on Growth. We would rather you learn that here than on the pricing page, because it decides whether this fits a course business at all.
- Growth — ₹1,499/month
- Up to 3 published courses, live cohort intakes, the landing page builder, your own domain, and 3% commission.
- Scale — ₹3,999/month
- Up to 10 published courses, and no commission on anything you sell.
- Drafts are always free
- Only published courses count, so you can build the next one while the current ones sell.
- More than 10 courses?
- Then this is not the right fit today, and it is better to know that now.
Beyond the course
The rest of the business is included
A course platform rarely stays just a course platform. The things you would otherwise bolt on — a membership, a paid community, events, email, Instagram DMs — are on the same page and the same checkout, so a student is one customer rather than four logins.
- Marketing emails
- 500 a month on Free, 5,000 on Starter, 25,000 on Growth and 1,00,000 on Scale. Receipts and reminders never count.
- Instagram Auto DM
- Reply to a comment with a link to your course — 10,000 auto DMs a month on Growth.
- Member pricing on courses
- Give each membership tier its own price on a course, down to free.
- Events and 1:1 sessions
- Ticketed webinars and bookable calls, sold from the same page.

Before you start
Questions before you switch
Which plan do I need for courses?
Growth or Scale. Growth (₹1,499 a month) includes up to 3 published courses and live cohorts; Scale (₹3,999) includes up to 10 and takes no commission. Free and Starter cover memberships, events, products and bookings, but not courses. Drafts never count, only published courses.
Can I import my courses from Kajabi?
Not the course content itself — there is no course importer, so you rebuild the curriculum here and upload your videos and files. What does import is your members: upload the Kajabi members export and they come across into your membership tiers, with a dry run first so you see every row before anything is written. Student progress inside a course does not carry over.
Can my students pay with UPI?
Yes. One-off purchases can be paid by UPI, card or netbanking, and memberships can renew with UPI AutoPay, a card or an eMandate/NACH mandate. Everything is charged in rupees and settles to your bank account.
Can I run live cohorts, not just recorded courses?
Yes, from Growth. Open repeatable intakes with a seat limit, an enrollment window and a weekly schedule, with an agenda for each session and a roster for each batch.
Can I issue GST invoices?
Yes, from the Starter plan upwards. Once your GSTIN and registered details are set, invoices carry them, and the GST reports give your accountant what they need.
How do I compare this against Kajabi feature by feature?
We have not published a feature-by-feature table, and would rather say why than fake one: their plans and features change without telling us, and a stale comparison written by a competitor is worth nothing to you. Everything on this page is what Tribearn does. Put it next to what you are paying for today.
Will my members’ payments carry over?
No — and nobody can do this, so be wary of anyone who says otherwise. A mandate (UPI AutoPay, a card, or eMandate/NACH) is a contract between your member’s bank and the platform that took it; there is no export format and no legal way to move it. Their access, tier and dates all come across intact, but the next charge has to be re-authorised by them. You choose how that is handled.
Can I see what will happen before it happens?
Yes, and you should. The dry run validates every row on the server and shows you exactly what would be created, what would be skipped and what looks wrong — without writing anything. Nothing is committed until you say so.
What does it cost to move?
Nothing to arrive. The Free plan is ₹0 a month for as long as you want it and takes 10% of what you sell. Paid plans start at ₹499 a month and cut that to 5%, 3%, or nothing at all.
What if I run the import twice by mistake?
A re-run is a no-op for rows that already came across — it does not duplicate members or stack their access. That behaviour was checked against the real database rather than assumed.
