## Overview

### Key benefits of Circle

1\) All-in-one: &#10;&#10;Your members won’t have to switch between different tools for your community and content anymore. Get everything you need to engage and monetize your community — all in one place, under your brand. Mix and match posts, events, chat, live streams, payments, courses, and more to create the seamless member experience of your dreams.&#10;&#10;2) Highly customizable: &#10;&#10;There isn’t a single ‘right’ way to build a community. That’s why Circle provides all the building blocks and guidance you need to bring your unique community vision to life. Circle's highly customizable spaces empower you to set your community up just as you like it, while your own custom domain plus branding ensures that your brand stands out.&#10;&#10;3) Stay in control: &#10;&#10;Unlike a lot of other community platforms, Circle enables you to own your content, domain, and data. You have full control over the look and feel of your community as well as relationships with your members. Nobody has the power to ban your members, censor discussions, or delete your hard-earned work.&#10;&#10;4) Earn more: &#10;&#10;Circle’s easy monetization empowers your community to grow alongside your business. Using Paywalls, you can decide whether to charge for a single space, a set of spaces, your entire community, or a combination of all of the above. Earn more by offering free trials, discounts, upsells, and subscription options to your members at the right place, at the right time.&#10;&#10;5) Flexible: &#10;&#10;Circle both unifies your community-building tech stack and seamlessly fits into your existing workflow. Choose from thousands of integrations to customize your community, while SSO and API access allow you to connect Circle to your website, app, CRM, or any other valuable web asset. Circle is available on web, iOS, and Android.
