Don’t rent your community. Own it.

Memberships, merch and your own app, on a website that’s yours.

Home to every kind of community.

Whatever your people gather around, give them a place of their own.

01 Your site

A website that’s actually yours.

Pick a starting point, then a look, and watch your site change as you choose. Use a domain you own or buy one inside Drate.

Creating a website during setup: the next template slides in, then the site restyles as each theme is picked

02 Customize

Change anything, right on the page.

Click a headline and type over it. Add a coaching, shop or library section, check it on a phone, and publish when it’s ready. Drafts stay private until then.

Editing a coach’s homepage: the headline is retyped in place, a Coaching section is added, the page is checked on a phone, then published

03 Memberships

Get paid by the people who show up.

Monthly, yearly or season passes, paid straight into your own Stripe. Coming from Patreon? Match your tiers and your patrons walk right in.

04 Merch

Merch, without the warehouse.

Pick a blank, drop on your artwork and choose the colors. Drate prints and ships every order at the price you set, and it all sells on your own site.

Designing a hoodie in the merch editor: the blank is picked, the show’s badge is placed on the front, then the color changed to white

05 Community

A home that isn’t a group chat.

A members-only feed with threads, likes and moderation, so the conversation lives where you do. Your Discord comes along too.

06 Your app

In their pocket, with your name on it.

Your own app for iPhone and Android. Members get your posts, videos and community in one tap from the home screen.

Good to know.

Anything else? Start free and look around. There’s nothing to cancel.

Is Drate really free?

Yes. You can build your site, publish content and sell memberships without paying anything up front. On the Free plan we take a 5% platform fee on the memberships you sell. If you’d rather pay a flat monthly price and keep every sale, switch to Pro.

What exactly do you take?

Free: 5% of each membership sale. Pro: nothing, just the subscription. Stripe charges its standard payment processing fee on both plans; that goes to Stripe, not us.

How do I get paid?

You connect your own Stripe account, so members pay you directly and payouts follow your Stripe schedule. Drate never holds your money.

I’m already on Patreon. Do I have to move everyone?

No. Connect Patreon and map your tiers to Drate memberships, and your patrons get access to your site right away. Add direct Stripe memberships alongside whenever you’re ready.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes. Point a domain you already own at Drate, or buy a new one right inside Drate and it’s connected for you.

Who owns my audience and content?

You do. Your content, your members and your payments stay yours, and your site lives on your own domain.

What can I sell?

Anything. Ecommerce, coaching, gaming, everything. If you made it and people want it, it sells on your site.
