The complete guide to choosing a Hotmart alternative

Why Consider Alternatives to Hotmart in 2026?

Hotmart built a massive platform for digital product creators, especially in Latin America. Their affiliate marketplace helped many creators reach new audiences. However, success comes at a cost—literally. Hotmart's 10%+ fees mean you're giving up a significant portion of every sale. As your business grows, those fees become more painful. A creator selling $100,000/year in courses pays $10,000+ to Hotmart. That's money that could be reinvested in your business or kept as profit.

Hotmart's Strength: The Marketplace

Let's be fair: Hotmart's biggest advantage is their affiliate marketplace. Thousands of affiliates can promote your products, potentially driving sales you wouldn't get otherwise. However, this comes with trade-offs. Affiliates typically take 30-50% commission, your products appear alongside competitors, and you're competing for attention in a crowded marketplace. If you have your own audience, you might not need Hotmart's marketplace at all.

The iLoquio Difference

iLoquio takes a different approach. Instead of a marketplace, we give you your own branded academy. Your students come to YOUR site, see YOUR brand, and have a direct relationship with YOU. The trade-off is clear: you need to bring your own traffic. But if you already have an audience through social media, YouTube, a blog, or an email list—you don't need Hotmart's marketplace. You just need a great platform to deliver your courses.

Cost Comparison: Real Numbers

On $50,000 in annual sales: • Hotmart: ~$5,000+ in platform fees (10%+) • iLoquio: $5,000 at 5% The numbers are similar at this level. But consider: • Hotmart fees are PLUS payment processing • iLoquio's 5% is all-inclusive • With affiliates, Hotmart's effective take can be 30-60% If you're driving your own traffic, iLoquio lets you keep more of every dollar.
