What is the Whop App Store?

The Whop App Store is live.

We have officially entered a new era of internet businesses. 

For the first time ever, creators can sell software, tools, games, marketplaces, and any digital experience you can think of.

Without hiring a developer. Without knowing how to code. Without spending a dime. 

All you need to do is copy and paste ‘apps’ from the Whop App Store and sell them directly in your whop community.  

Developers build them. Creators sell them. Everyone gets paid. 

To understand the scale of this new opportunity for both internet entrepreneurs and developers, we’re gonna dive into:

• How to get started with Whop apps

What are Whop apps?

Apps are the building blocks for your business on Whop. 

Here’s how it works: You create your own whop, then pick and choose which apps to include. Want a chat room for your community? Add the Chat app. Selling a course? Add the Course app. 

There are dozens of apps to choose from, and you can add any of them with just one click.

Each app becomes a feature that your members get access to when they join your whop. Some of the most popular apps include:

• Chat: Create group chats where your members can talk, share ideas, and build community
• Course: Build multi-lesson courses with videos, quizzes, and progress tracking
• Events: Host virtual or in-person events and optionally charge per ticket
• Document: Create Notion-style pages with text, images, and embedded media
• Calendar Bookings: Let members book time slots with you, with optional payment per booking
• Content Rewards: Pay members to post about your brand on social media (and pay for the views)
• Files: Share downloadable files, documents, templates, or any digital assets

But here’s where things get interesting: Any developer can now build apps on Whop’s platform. 

And the devs are coming.

Since the recent launch of the Whop App Store, developers have already built:

• Whop Wins: A wall of wins where your community can post and celebrate their biggest successes
• Prompt Library: Create, share, and sell AI prompts
• Quizly: Host trivia and quizzes for members on your whop
• Paper Trading: Users can practice trading public markets with fake money inside your whop
• Whop FM: Radio streaming app for tuning into real U.S. radio stations, all from inside Whop
• Anonymous AMA: Allows users to ask the creator questions anonymously

Soon, there will be apps for everything — AI image generators, dating apps, quizzes, games, specialized software for every niche imaginable — all available in the Whop App Store.

What is the Whop App Store?

The Whop App Store is a growing marketplace where you can browse and install apps for your whop.

Filter by "Newest" to see what just dropped, "Trending" to find what's getting the most installs, or "Most Addicting" to discover which apps people are spending the most time on.

When you find an app you want, click "Install" and your members can start using it immediately.

How to make money with Whop apps

If the penny hasn’t dropped yet, let’s talk about why this is a big opportunity for both internet entrepreneurs and developers. 

Internet entrepreneurs

You can now sell software (the highest leverage business model). Not by learning to code, but by curating the perfect tech stack for your audience.

Think about it: every successful creator already recommends tools to their audience.

Now, instead of sending people away to pay someone else, you keep them in your ecosystem and capture that revenue. 

• YouTube coaches: You teach YouTube growth and send students to TubeBuddy ($20/month) and VidIQ ($39/month). Now, you install all the relevant software in your whop, charge $30/month, and keep it all. 
• Fitness coach: You already recommend MyFitnessPal plus a workout tracker… Now, install fitness apps directly in your whop, charge $25/month for the complete suite.

Developers

We’re in the era of AI, Cursor and vibe coding. You can whip up software quicker than ever. 

Now, it’s distribution (getting users) that’s the hard part… Whop apps fix that.

Instead of finding thousands of customers, you just need one creator with an audience. Built a podcast tool? Find podcast course creators. Built a crypto tracker? Find crypto communities.

And the more people who use your app, the higher it ranks in the App Store. Higher ranking = more visibility = more installs = more money.

But how do developers actually get paid?

There are three main ways for devs to cash in:

• Installation fee: Creators pay a one-time fee (e.g., $500-$2,000) to add your app to their community.
• Revenue share: You take 10-30% of whatever creators charge for access to your app.
• Subscription model: Creators pay monthly based on their member count (e.g., $1 per member).
