Pagely vs Hotmart · for digital and physical products, without giving up 9.9% per sale

Hotmart is the standard for info-products. But if you sell physical (or mixed), you're paying commission you don't need to.

Summary

Hotmart charges 9.9% + R$ 1 per sale, built for digital info-products with affiliates, launches and advanced producers. For physical products, or simple digital products without affiliates, Hotmart's stack is overkill. Pagely charges 3.90% + your gateway fee (PIX ~1%, card ~5%), supports physical and digital, and the landing comes ready. No club, no affiliate, no forced upsell.

Questions

Is Hotmart better than Pagely?

For online courses with member area, affiliates and launches, yes, Hotmart has 10 years of features for that. For a single product (physical or simple digital) without affiliates, Hotmart is overkill and you're paying 9.9% for features you don't use.

Can I sell an ebook on Pagely?

Yes. Create the landing with the cover photo, set up checkout, and the automated post-sale email delivers the download link. No subscription, no extra commission, no affiliate taking 50%.

How much do I save migrating?

On a R$ 297 sale (typical digital product ticket): Hotmart takes R$ 30.40 (9.9% + R$ 1). Pagely takes R$ 12.62 (3.90%) + your chosen gateway fee (~R$ 2.94 on PIX = R$ 15.56). Savings of R$ 14.84 per sale, or R$ 1,484 every 100 sales.
