Corrections to this record

Changes we made to our own record of Podia, newest first: a figure read again on the vendor's page, a plan it no longer lists, a note. None of them is a price change by Podia. Every correction on the site is in the corrections log.

  • Mover. Price corrected from $42 to $49 (month, billed monthly). This row was last read on 2026-09-02. The page's "Billed yearly" view prints $42 /mo ($504 billed annually); its "Billed monthly" view prints $49 /mo billed monthly. The record had held the annual-billed rate, $42, as the month-to-month price. The page reads: "Billed monthly Mover Just getting started $49 /mo billed monthly Up to 100 email subscribers 5% fees". Read in a browser on 2026-09-29.

  • Shaker. Price corrected from $84 to $99 (month, billed monthly). This row was last read on 2026-09-02. The page's "Billed yearly" view prints $84 /mo ($1,008 billed annually); its "Billed monthly" view prints $99 /mo billed monthly. The record had held the annual-billed rate, $84, as the month-to-month price. The page reads: "Billed monthly Mover Just getting started $49 /mo billed monthly Up to 100 email subscribers 5% fees Unlimited customers 50 products 500 videos 25 spaces Shaker More room to grow $99 /mo billed monthly Up to 500 email subscribers".

  • Earthquaker. Price corrected from $150 to $179 (month, billed monthly). This row was last read on 2026-09-02. The page's "Billed yearly" view prints $150 /mo ($1,800 billed annually); its "Billed monthly" view prints $179 /mo billed monthly.

Read in a browser on 2026-09-29.

  • Earthquaker. Correction 2026-09-11: the annual discount of 17% was removed from "Earthquaker". The recorded $150/mo is this plan's own note's $1800 yearly total over 12 months, so the saving is already inside the figure, while the page prints the percentage as a further discount off the same row — offering a reader $124.50/mo. Removed rather than moved: no rate above it is named anywhere in the note. The note still describes the term in full. No price changed.

  • Source replaced, price unchanged. https://ecommerce-platforms.com/ecommerce-reviews/podia-review answers 301 and lands on https://ecommerce-platforms.com/articles/podia-review-the-simplest-of-membership-online-course-and-digital-download-platforms — the same page at the address the site now uses. The figure is unchanged and still stands on the day it was read; only the link the reader follows is corrected, so it no longer bounces through a redirect. Same host, same scheme, and the destination keeps every distinguishing word of the page's own name.

  • Mover. Annual discount corrected from 17% to 1%. The record's own two readings of podia disagreed, and its own figures settle it: $500 a year against $42 a month is $504 a year, a saving of 79 cents, or 0.8%. The other reading of this vendor already recorded 1% and called the discount negligible. A claimed 17% saving is the sort a reader acts on, so the row said something untrue about money.

  • Shaker. Annual discount corrected from 17% to 1%. $1,000 a year against $84 a month is $1,008 a year: an $8 saving, or 0.8%. The record's other reading of podia already recorded 1%.

This standing as a plaque

Podia currently holds a bronze deskmark here — Rank 6 of 7 · Digital Product Sales. Anyone may show it. There is nothing to apply for, nothing to pay, and displaying it changes no score: the standing comes from the published algorithm, which never reads commission data. We never ask anyone to show it, and its link carries rel="nofollow".

Bronze Deskmark — Podia, Rank 6 of 7 · Digital Product Sales, The Front Desk Review

The image is drawn from our live data, so it follows the standing rather than freezing it: if Podia moves up or down a tier, the plaque on your own site says so at our next publish. Nothing is tracked beyond the ordinary web-server log that records any image request.
