Method

How we judge a paid community

Four rules. They are the whole method, and they are why the ordering on this site looks different to everyone else's.

01
Numbers, not claims
Every price, rating, review total and member count on this site is read off the program page on the platform, not copied from a sales page or a press release.
02
Dated, not vague
Each page carries the day its figures were last checked. Everything here was read on 2026-09-21. If a price moved since, the date tells you to look again.
03
Joined is not paying
Most programs bundle a free tier into their headline count. Where we know the split we show both, so a big number never stands in for a small paying room.
04
No paid placement
No seller can buy a rank, a badge or a better score. We earn a commission on signups through our links, which is disclosed on every page and changes nothing about the order.

What we currently cover
