Unlimited students. Zero transaction fees.

The Free plan lets you create unlimited courses and try out all the core features for up to 5 student enrollments at a time, across all your courses (one student in two courses uses two places) — no credit card, no time limit. It's designed for pilot launches: build your first course, enroll students, collect feedback, and sell with zero transaction fees. Upgrade to Core or Pro when you're ready to enroll more.

Yes, on monthly billing. Cancel when a course ends, and at the end of that month your account moves to the Free plan. Your courses, students, and sales history stay. Students already enrolled still count toward Free's 5 places, and finishing a course doesn't free a place. A place opens when you remove a student, which ends their access, or when their access period ends; you can give any price option an access period in days. When your next course is ready, upgrade and the limit lifts right away.

We accept all major credit cards through Stripe, as well as PayPal. You can also offer your students payment plans with multiple installments.

Absolutely! You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. If you upgrade, you'll be prorated for the remainder of your billing period. If you downgrade, the change takes effect at your next billing date.

Here's the truth: Ruzuku doesn't charge any transaction fees on your course sales. The only cut on a sale is your payment processor's standard fee. Stripe charges 2.9% + 30¢ per US card sale; PayPal Checkout charges 3.49% + 49¢. We believe your success shouldn't cost you more.

If Ruzuku isn't the right fit for you, simply cancel within the first 30 days of activating your subscription and we'll refund your entire payment. No questions asked, no hard feelings.

Yes! On the Pro plan, you can connect your own custom domain so your courses live at yourdomain.com instead of a Ruzuku subdomain.

Yes! This is one of the things that sets Ruzuku apart. We provide friendly tech support not just for you, but also for your students. If they have trouble logging in or accessing content, they can reach out to us directly.

Yes. The Free plan includes full payment processing with zero platform transaction fees — the same as our paid plans. Connect your own Stripe or PayPal account, set your course price, and pay Ruzuku nothing on the sale — only your processor takes a cut (Stripe charges 2.9% + 30¢ per US card sale; PayPal Checkout charges 3.49% + 49¢). You can sell paid courses and offer free enrollments. On the Free plan you can have up to 5 student enrollments at a time across all your courses, and students join through your course link: email invitations need a paid plan.

Nothing is deleted. Your account moves to a limited state that works like the Free plan. Your courses, content, student data, and sales history stay, and your students keep full access to everything they're enrolled in. You can still run live meetings, release new lessons, and support them. The 5-place limit applies only to new enrollments: if you already have more than 5 students, they stay, but you can't add new ones until your count drops below 5. The count drops when you remove a student or when a student's access period ends. Upgrade back to Core or Pro anytime and the limit lifts right away.

Most teaching features — unlimited courses, built-in video meetings, optional Zoom integration, community discussions, unlimited video hosting, and zero transaction fees — are available on every plan, including Free. Tech support for you and your students is included on every plan, including Free. Core and Pro add unlimited student enrollments and unlimited course invitations. Pro-only features include custom domain, certificates of completion, multiple instructor accounts, public storefront, digital product sales, AI video transcription and captions, Zoom recording integration, and 4 GB video uploads (vs 2 GB on Free and Core).

Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. There are no long-term contracts or cancellation fees. Your access continues until the end of your current billing period. Refunds are only available in the first 30 days after you start a subscription; after that, we don't refund unused time, and that includes yearly plans.

Yes. We offer 30% off annual plans for qualified nonprofits, NGOs, government agencies, and educational institutions — plus a one-time Lifetime Pro option at $4,950 for grant-funded organizations. See our nonprofit pricing page for details.
