Pay for features, never for growth.

Every plan is unlimited members, topics and posts. The only thing that grows with your plan is storage, so you move up to switch on features, never because you got popular.

Start free trial

Soon In active development. ForumSpark ships constantly, and these unlock on your plan the moment they land.

Prices in EUR, billed monthly. 30-day free trial on every plan. Annual billing saves two months. Cancel anytime.

Custom development

The one feature you cannot move without, we build it.

Most established communities are held back by one or two custom add-ons. Tell us what they do, and they become part of ForumSpark for your board.

We would move tomorrow. But we have three custom add-ons our members would riot without.

The reason most large forums stay on software they have outgrown.

We build it. You do not install it.

It ships inside ForumSpark and is tested with every release. There is no plugin to keep in sync and nothing to upload.

Updates never break it.

Because it lives in the platform, it moves with the platform. No upgrade day, no compatibility checks, no developer on retainer.

Switched on for your community.

It runs for your board from day one. If it later helps other communities it becomes part of the product, and you already have it.

The questions everyone asks before switching.

Will it slow down or break once we get popular?
No. There are no limits on members, topics or posts on any plan, and every board runs on its own isolated database. Growing never forces an upgrade. The only thing that scales is storage.

Do I need to be technical to customize my community?
Not at all. Theme Studio is a live visual editor, and AI Smart Start builds a complete, accessible theme from a description, a logo or one colour. Custom CSS is there if you want it, never required.
Am I locked in? Can I bring my existing forum?
Your data is always yours. Import from major forum software in a few clicks, connect a domain you own, and export whenever you like. Leaving is as easy as joining.
Will I be nickel-and-dimed as I grow?
No. You only ever pay to unlock optional features you choose, or for more storage. Getting popular costs nothing extra, and nothing is forced on your members.
Members & posts Unlimited
Storage
Only storage scales with your plan
Can I actually earn from my community?
Yes, on the Earn plan and up. Run a credits economy, a shop, paid clubs and subscriptions, with a marketplace, affiliates and ads on the way. Your revenue, your rules.
Supporter roles +€420
Shop sales +€180
Subscriptions +€650
This month€1,250
What if I get stuck or need help?
You get guided setup, full docs and migration help from day one. Earn and Scale add priority support from the ForumSpark team, and Scale adds early access to everything new.
