Circle alternatives in Brazil

For anyone charging members in Brazil, three Circle alternatives charge in reais: Memberfy, MemberKit and LastLink, and the difference between them is the checkout. Memberfy brings community, courses and billing with PIX, boleto and card together; MemberKit is a members area that depends on an external checkout; LastLink is a checkout with no monthly fee that unlocks groups on WhatsApp, Telegram or Instagram.

Why so many people start with Circle

  • Unlimited members on every plan.
  • Apps for iOS, Android and desktop from the first plan.
  • Community, courses, live events, website and email marketing in the same product.
  • What weighs against it, for anyone charging in Brazil: prices in dollars, Pix only for one-time payments, and Stripe’s fee on top.

When to choose each one

Stay with Circle if

  • your members pay by card and many of them are outside Brazil;
  • the community is very large and an app in the stores is a must.

Choose a Brazilian alternative if

  • you want community and billing with PIX, boleto and card in one place: Memberfy;
  • you already sell through Hotmart or Eduzz and only want the members area: MemberKit;
  • the community lives on WhatsApp or Telegram and you want no monthly fee: LastLink.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best Circle alternative for charging with Pix?

Does any Brazilian alternative have unlimited members like Circle?
On the pricing pages we checked, Memberfy and MemberKit charge by member limit. On Memberfy, above 20,000 each pack of 2,000 members adds R$ 99 a month, without having to talk to sales.
Can I move from Circle to Memberfy?
Written content can be imported from Substack, Medium and WordPress; students, active subscriptions and payment history are manual work, agreed case by case. No one can transfer an active subscription from another platform without the customer reauthorizing the charge, and we tell you how big the job is up front.
