Frequently asked

Everything you'd ask a Suby rep before switching.

How is Suby cheaper than Whop when your platform fee is 4%?

Whop's effective rate looks deceptively low, but it stacks fast: 2.7% + $0.30 card processing plus a 3% platform fee plus 1.5% on international cards plus 1% currency conversion plus a 5% fee on every crypto payout plus payout fees up to $23 per cycle. Most creators end up paying 7–10% effective. Suby is one transparent rate with no hidden add-ons.

Can my funds be blocked or frozen with Suby?

No. Suby never holds or freezes your funds. Whop has been known to withhold payouts for review and enforce holding periods on new or high-volume creators.

How do USDC payouts work?

You can choose to receive payouts in USDC directly to your wallet, removing banking delays and FX losses. Fiat payouts remain available. Both options work from day one.

How quickly can I migrate from Whop?

Most creators migrate in under a day. Suby supports payment links, recurring subscriptions, Discord and Telegram gating out of the box. Talk with our founder for a guided migration.

Does Suby support Discord and Telegram role gating?

Yes. Both Discord and Telegram integrations are native, with zero setup. Automated role management, channel gating, and subscription-based access all work out of the box, just like on Whop.

What if I'm doing high volume? Are fees negotiable?

Yes, high-volume creators get custom pricing. If you're processing more than $50k/month, reach out for tailored rates.

Is Suby suitable for selling courses, communities, and digital products?

Yes. Suby is built for digital products of any kind: courses, communities, SaaS subscriptions, one-off products, and gated content. The dashboard is purpose-built for creators and digital businesses.
