Pricing at a glance
◇ Pricing model
Flat-rate annual licensing; 2 plans are listed on Capterra, but only the $199 LMS tier is publicly disclosed in the supplied documents. Billing cadence for the disclosed tier is annual.
↻ Billing notes
The publicly cited pricing references show LearnDash as an annual purchase rather than a monthly subscription. Capterra states there is no free trial and no free version, and it also says credit card required is not provided by the vendor. A third-party pricing comparison lists LearnDash at $199/year and notes that WordPress plugin pricing typically comes with separate hosting and add-on expenses, so buyers should expect the license to renew annually while infrastructure and extensions are extra. No public discount, seat minimum, or renewal discount is disclosed in the supplied documents.

Pricing FAQ
No free trial and no free version are disclosed in the supplied pricing reference. Capterra’s pricing page explicitly says both are unavailable. If you need to evaluate the product before purchasing, the supplied documents do not show a publicly offered trial on LearnDash itself. Buyers should assume purchase is required before use unless LearnDash publishes a different offer elsewhere.
The supplied documents show a publicly referenced starting price of $199 per year. That price appears in third-party pricing references rather than a full official tier table. The supplied documents do not disclose the second plan’s amount, so the complete plan ladder is not publicly visible here.
The supplied documents indicate that hosting and add-ons are separate costs for WordPress-based LMS deployments. One comparison says WordPress plugin costs sit on top of hosting, email gateways, and extra add-ons, and another LearnDash-focused article says many users spend $500–1,500 per year on infrastructure alone. So the purchase price should be treated as only the starting point, not the full operating budget.
