OpusFunnel
vs Kartra

Kartra is a capable all-in-one and a fair comparison — it's the closest thing to what we do. The catch is at the bottom: their entry plan takes 5% of every sale and caps you at 500 contacts.

Price

Their cheap plan takes 5% of your sales.

Kartra Essentials looks like $59 until you read the fee line. Five percent of every sale, plus a 500-contact cap and one product. The plan that removes the fee is $119 and still caps you at 2,500 contacts.

Annual billing brings Kartra to $52 / $99 / $189 / $429. Even so, their 12,500-contact plan is $229 against our 15,000-contact plan at $97 — and ours includes the unified inbox, contracts and certificates they don't have.

Where Kartra is genuinely better

Kartra is the closest competitor on this list to what we actually do, and it has real advantages.

If unlimited email and a helpdesk are what you need, Kartra earns its price. If you're weighing 2,500 contacts at $119 against 15,000 at $97, the arithmetic speaks for itself.

Questions

Common questions

Is the 5% fee real?

Yes, on Kartra's Essentials plan at $59. It disappears on Starter at $119 and above. On a business doing $10,000 a month, that 5% is $500 — considerably more than the plan itself. OpusFunnel charges 0% on every plan including the $12 one.

Kartra offers unlimited emails. You don't.

True. We cap sends per plan because we pay per email delivered. The alternative is charging a percentage of your revenue, which we'd rather not do. Grow includes 40,000 sends a month; overage is billed at cost plus a small margin.

Do you have a helpdesk like theirs?

No. We have a unified inbox that catches Instagram, Messenger, web chat and email in one thread, but it isn't a ticketing system. If you need formal support desk workflows, Kartra has that and we don't.

Can I migrate from Kartra?

Contacts export by CSV, course content downloads and re-uploads, pages get rebuilt from our templates. Active subscriptions can't transfer between platforms — that's universal. On Grow and Scale we'll handle the migration.

Keep the 5%.

Six times the contacts at $97, and no fee on any plan.
