Join a focused community of software makers who help each other make better decisions and move forward with confidence.
What you get inside the Freemius Community
Fast answers from experienced software makers
Get timely input from a global network of over 2,000 software makers who’ve already solved the problems you’re facing, from pricing and licensing questions to launch timing and tricky edge cases. With members across time zones, feedback often comes within hours, not days.
“Being able to run ideas past other makers saved me from going down paths that would’ve cost months of work.” — Alan Fuller, Founder of Fullworks
Live workshops and practical walkthroughs
Led by the Freemius team and experienced makers, these break down recurring challenges and show how to handle them.
Sessions include hands-on SaaS implementation and monetization walkthroughs led by Freemius VP of Engineering, Swashata Ghosh.
Early access to roadmap discussions
Influence the Freemius roadmap by sharing feedback before features ship. Community input helps ensure new functionality is designed around actual use cases, not assumptions.
Freemius Checkout 2.0 is a clear example. It went through multiple feedback and design cycles with community members before launching as a more modern, conversion-focused experience.
In-person connections beyond Slack
Through meetups, conferences, and in-person conversations, the Freemius Community helps makers build relationships that lead to collaboration and long-term growth.
“The Freemius Community is the place to be if you’re serious about building and growing software. You don’t just learn online. You meet the people behind the products.” — Md Abu Hayat, founder and software product maker
Direct access to the Freemius team
Speak directly with the people building and running the platform, including Freemius CEO Vova Feldman.
Through focused office hours, founders get practical guidance on pricing and packaging, launch strategy, growth bottlenecks, and the day-to-day realities of shipping and scaling software.
“Having direct access to Vova helped me think more clearly about long-term decisions, not just short-term wins.” — Tauras Sinkus, Founder of Webba Booking
Community-powered affiliate growth and amplification
Accelerate growth with affiliates and influencers using built-in tools and existing community relationships.
What’s included:
Built-in affiliate platform to track clicks, referrals, and commissions
Access to an active network of affiliates ready to promote software products
Simple affiliate management, including payouts and performance visibility
Beyond tooling, the Freemius Community adds a distribution layer.
The team actively builds relationships with creators, publishers, and review sites, connecting them with makers when launches, updates, or partnerships make sense.

Post to Google My Business
“Setting up the Freemius Affiliate Platform is as easy as a flick of a switch. I was able to reach a broader audience and increase revenue much faster than other affiliate platforms would have allowed.”
Business connections beyond day-to-day sales
Freemius works closely with hundreds of software businesses and has built strong relationships across the software ecosystem. That visibility naturally attracts investors, partners, and acquisition-minded companies looking to invest and acquire software products.
How Freemius and the community supports these connections:
Introductions aligned with SaaS and software-focused investors
Acquisition guidance, including valuation context and introductions to reputable buyers
Partnership opportunities with other makers, agencies, hosting providers, and software companies
These connections are never pushed. The Freemius team supports makers when the timing and fit make sense, based on their goals and stage.

Former plugin maker
“When I decided to sell, the Freemius team connected me with the right people almost immediately. I ended up talking to a buyer who truly understood my product’s value, and we struck a deal that was a win-win.”
Build with confidence from launch to exit
Freemius is more than a sales platform. It’s a long-term partner for software makers who want to build with clarity, context, and support at every stage.
From launch to exit, the Freemius Community helps you avoid common pitfalls, move faster, and access opportunities that are difficult to reach alone.
