Can I create multiple communities on Podia?

Podia supports one community per account, but you can use Plans to create segmented spaces with different access levels for members.

At this time, you can’t create multiple communities in one Podia account.
Each account supports only one community.

However, if you’re looking to serve different audiences or offer tiered access, you can use Plans to create a similar experience within a single community.


Use Plans to organize your community

While Podia doesn’t support multiple separate communities in one account, you would use plans to create distinct spaces inside your single community.

Plans let you:

  • Offer access to different community topics

  • Segment members based on what they’ve purchased

  • Customize the member experience—without managing multiple accounts


✅ How to set this up

  1. Create your community - Your single community area will act as the umbrella for multiple subscription plans underneath it. Try and have a general name that encompasses all of the plans you create. (e.g. One Stop Community)

  2. Create your plans - Your plans will act as completely different parts of your community. (e.g. Stock traders, New parents, etc.)

  3. Hide your plans - You'll want to hide your plans so that only those with a direct link will be able to find your plan.

  4. Create hidden topics per plan - Each plan can have its own hidden topic that is only shown in the plan you choose.

  5. Create a custom page for each plan - Create a separate sales page for each plan by creating a custom page per unique subscription! Once the page is created, you can pull the direct subscription URL for each plan to use on those Custom Pages.


Need completely separate communities?

If you want totally separate spaces with different branding, member lists, or products, you can:

  • Create another Podia account at podia.com

  • Use a different email address for each account

  • Note that each account comes with separate billing
