SamCart vs. Podia
If you’re looking to make a switch, let us show you why more and more digital sellers are choosing SamCart’s all-in-one, profit-boosting checkout—where every feature is included from day one.
Unlike Podia, which locks advanced tools behind higher-priced plans, SamCart gives you everything you need to scale, starting at just $79/month.
Here's Where SamCart Wins Over Podia
We’re not just another all-in-one. We’re the revenue platform.
While Kajabi helps you publish content, SamCart is laser-focused on one thing: getting you paid. From high-converting checkouts to automated recovery tools and AI-powered pages, we give you every advantage to scale your sales—starting at just $79/month. Here's how it works...
Profit-Boosting eCommerce Features
Podia offers upselling options, multiple payment options, and discounts or coupons
In addition to one-click upsells, one-click downsells, recurring subscriptions, and order bumps, SamCart’s Checkout OS gives creators the ability to enable Checkout Anywhere, Embedded Checkout, Pop-Up Checkout, and other profit-boosting technologies like One-Click Checkout from Stripe or through Apple Pay. The fewer the steps, the better converting your checkout is
Streamlined Business Management
SamCart’s suite of reporting, sales tracking, and subscription management capabilities wholly outweigh those of Podia’s. To run a successful business selling online, understanding deep customer data is imperative
Intentional Integrations
When it comes to running your business, the ability to integrate with your favorite tools is a must
SamCart’s robust integration engine is available on every plan, unlike Podia’s sole integration with Zapier
