ThriveCart pricing

By Dana Rourke, Lead Reviewer. Reviewed by Campaign Buyer Editorial. Verified 8 September 2026.

The plans

Paid plans start at $37/mo, after a 30-day trial.

Standard is $47 a month or $37 a month billed annually, with a 30-day trial on new monthly plans. Pro+ is $87 a month or $67 a month billed annually, with the same trial. The campaign page lists Standard lifetime at $495 one-time (was $1,995). Lifetime Standard holders can add Pro+ for $295 per year. 0% to ThriveCart on sales. On a Standard subscription the processor fees page lists 0.10% on subscription bumps, 5% of the first retained payment on retention offers, and 0.10% on Advanced Adaptive Pricing. Affiliate Center is on Pro+. Tax calculation on the existing catalog note was 0.5% per eligible transaction on Standard and 0.35% on Pro+; this refresh does not restate a card rule for the trial.

Prices as of 20 Oct 2026

Is it worth the money?

ThriveCart is the checkout to pick if you sell courses or digital products and want a capable cart at a flat, buy-once price. It leans on whichever processor you connect for the actual money, so it cannot route payments to a second account, cannot serve high-risk sellers, and only adds its own dunning on the Pro+ tier.

What works

  • A lifetime licence has long been the draw, so nothing recurring lands on your bill once you have bought in
  • Creator-focused cart features are strong: order bumps, one-click upsells, split-tested checkouts and a built-in affiliate centre
  • Connects Stripe, PayPal or Authorize.Net and adds nothing of its own on top of the processor's fee
  • Once on Pro+ it adds its own reminder emails, subscription analytics and deeper reporting

What to watch

  • The money runs through the one processor you connect, so a declined card has no second account to fall back to
  • No high-risk support either. The big gateways all bar those categories, and ThriveCart cannot work around the ban
  • How hard a failed payment is retried is the processor's job. Authorize.Net does not retry at all, and ThriveCart's own reminders need the Pro+ tier
  • Disputes sit with the processor, not with ThriveCart, so it brings no dedicated chargeback tooling to lean on
