Masteriyo

Masteriyo combines speed (single-page React course builder) with a full LMS feature set, so course creators can move from idea to sellable course in minutes instead of wrestling with multiple plugins. The mix of built-in e-commerce, payment gateways, content drip, assignments, and certificates—plus Elementor and marketing integrations—makes it a strong fit for founders who want to own their learning platform inside WordPress.
Freemium with paid tiers. Core LMS features are available in a free plugin, while Pro plans are sold as yearly subscriptions or lifetime licenses with additional features and integrations.
Masteriyo offers a 100% no-risk 14-day money-back guarantee on paid licenses; if the plugin is not a fit within 14 days, you can request a full refund.
Masteriyo looks like a growing, stable product: the changelog shows frequent updates through 2025, including new add-ons and security improvements. Active install counts in the thousands on WordPress.org and many recent reviews suggest an engaged user base and ongoing development.

- Advanced content drip allows you to schedule and release lessons over time, helping with engagement and cohort-based learning.

- Use it for issuing certificates for completed training, such as compliance courses or professional development.
- Use it for bundling courses with existing WooCommerce products or memberships if your site already runs on those tools.
- Masteriyo is a WordPress plugin that runs on self-hosted WordPress sites; installation is via the standard Plugins → Add New flow.
- The admin interface and course builder are powered by React, giving a single-page-application feel and faster UI.
- Compatible with most WordPress themes and plugins that follow standard coding practices.
- Integrates with common email and marketing tools like Mailchimp, Brevo, MailerLite, HubSpot, and Zapier on higher plans.
Unlike hosted LMS platforms that live outside your site and often take a share of revenue, Masteriyo runs inside WordPress so you keep control of your content, branding, and payments. Compared to more complex LMS plugins, it emphasizes a faster React-based builder and an integrated order system, which suits founders who want fewer moving parts.
- Documentation covers installation, setup, and feature-specific guides from the official docs site.
- Premium users get ticket-based support and, on higher tiers, priority chat support for faster help.
- The WordPress.org support forum and active review responses show the team engages with user questions and issues.
- Some advanced capabilities (additional gateways, integrations, white label, etc.) require Pro plans, so the free version may be limiting for complex businesses.
- Continued access to updates and support depends on renewing yearly licenses; if you do not renew, the plugin keeps working but without new features or security fixes.
- Lifetime access with updates is only available on specific “Elite” or higher tiers, which may be overkill for smaller projects.
