Plans and pricing at a glance

The first upgrade lever is the Starter per-sale fee. Starter ($24 per month on annual billing) adds a $5 fee on every course sale, which quietly outweighs the low subscription once volume climbs. Moving to Pro Trainer removes the per-sale fee entirely, so steady sellers upgrade to stop paying $5 per transaction.

The second lever is capacity and seats. Monthly active learners cap at 1,000 on Starter and 2,000 on Pro Trainer and Learning Center, above which you enter a Corporate quote. Admin seats jump from 1 on Starter to 5 on Pro Trainer to 25 on Learning Center, so a larger operations team is itself a reason to climb.

The third lever is capability: SCORM uploads (0 on Starter, 20 on Pro Trainer, unlimited from Learning Center), client groups (0, then 1, then up to 10), and full white label, which arrives only on Learning Center ($249 per month on annual billing). The mobile app is a paid add-on on every plan. See the LearnWorlds plan comparison.

Where it is strong

• SCORM without enterprise pricing. Pro Trainer ($79 per month on annual billing) allows 20 SCORM or multimedia uploads, and Learning Center makes them unlimited. That is the most accessible published SCORM in this set, well below a quote-based tier.
• Client groups on mid plans. Pro Trainer includes 1 client group and Learning Center up to 10, which supports selling seats to several companies inside one school.
• Many admin seats. Learning Center includes 25 admin seats, generous for an academy with several instructors and managers.
• Full white label from Learning Center. Learning Center delivers full white label, useful for training providers who must present the platform entirely as their own brand.

Limits to price in before you commit

• Starter per-sale fee. Starter charges $5 on every course sale. The workaround is to move to Pro Trainer, which removes the fee, once your sales volume makes the $5 add up beyond the price gap. Model it in the cost calculator.
• White label only from Learning Center. If you need your brand front and center, budget for Learning Center at $249 per month, or compare Thinkific, which removes branding from Grow. See white label vs client portals.
• Mobile app is a paid add-on. The mobile app costs extra on every plan. If a native app is essential, price the add-on separately or weigh LearnWorlds alternatives.

What is not published

Several B2B points are not itemized publicly and belong on your demo checklist, confirmed in writing.

• SSO protocols and cost. SSO terms and protocols by plan are not itemized on the pricing page. Ask which protocols are supported, on which plan, at what limit and cost, in writing. Use the SSO checklist.
• Per-group admin rights. Delegated per-group admin rights are not itemized publicly. Ask the vendor to show a per-group admin account and confirm exactly what it can see and manage.
• Per-group data separation. There is no public commitment about separating data across client groups. Groups are a grouping of users inside one school, not separate academies. Test the cross-group access scenario with fictional accounts before using the word isolation, and get it in writing.
• SCORM playback and API endpoints. SCORM upload quotas are published, but real playback behavior deserves a test with your own package, and exact API endpoints per plan should be confirmed. See SCORM support by platform.
• Salesforce. No native connector: LearnWorlds routes Salesforce through Zapier or its API, and documents Salesforce as an SSO identity provider. Details in LearnWorlds Salesforce integration.

Who should pick it, and who should look elsewhere

Pick LearnWorlds if you are:

• A training provider that needs SCORM without an enterprise contract, starting on Pro Trainer.
• A customer education team or academy that wants client groups, many admin seats and full white label on Learning Center.

Look elsewhere if you are:

• Focused on cheap brand removal without SCORM: Thinkific Grow removes branding earlier.
• A solo creator selling a small catalog simply: Podia or Teachable.
• Committed to full ownership and low license cost: LearnDash on WordPress.
