It’s a technology that enables companies to create their own communities quick and easy. It is different from old-school community software solutions that require bespoke development which would take a lot of time and would be very expensive.

It’s simple. You need to provide some information about your community: name, colors and features and it’ll automatically generate your own community space. You can try it for free with Disciple.

Growing your own online community can have an enormous impact on your business. From better engagement than on social media to new revenue streams, like subscriptions and in-app purchases.

The Community Builder with In-Built Monetisation Options

Being able to monetise your online community is key to its long-term viability and the Disciple community builder provides a multitude of ways for you to do just that. While other community platforms like Facebook seem intent on hoarding monetisation opportunities for themselves, Disciple provides you total control with features such as:

In-app purchases – With in-app purchases, you can take your product line to new heights, charge for access to premium content, offer courses in your particular field of expertise and much more.

Subscriptions – Many community builders choose to offer paid subscriptions to their online community with different monthly or yearly subscription prices providing different levels of access. Some also offer a free basic subscription that members can use as a kind of trial run.

Paid app download – Some involved in online community building are reluctant to charge a subscription fee, thinking it will lead to a great deal of churn as those memberships expire. A reasonable way around this is to charge a modest fee to download the app.

Store links – If you have an online store that is separate from your online community you can place links throughout the community environment to increase conversions and get the word out. If you have affiliate deals with other retailers, you can include links to their stores as well.

Advertising and sponsorships – With your Disciple app, you have total control over the number and placement of paid ads. You are also free to enter sponsorship deals, something that is expressly forbidden on some social media sites.

Apple Pay, Google Pay – Non-profit organisations can leverage these payment services to collect donations. While brand sites can use them to facilitate physical purchases.
