About VAVEL Premium
VAVEL Premium is VAVEL's platform for paid communities: journalists, analysts and creators open their own private club, set the subscription price and share with their members content they don't publish in the open.
What VAVEL Premium is
Every community belongs to its creator. They decide what it is about, what they publish, how much it costs and who gets in. VAVEL provides the technology: the community page, the wall, courses, the live-session calendar, messaging, subscription billing and the app.
Most communities today revolve around sport and sports journalism, the field VAVEL has worked in since 2009: match analysis, club news, training for journalists and direct conversation with the person behind the content.

Who it is for
For members
For anyone who wants to follow a specific journalist or expert closely: read what they publish only for subscribers, join their live sessions, take their courses and talk to them and other members in a space without noise. Signing up and browsing communities is free; you only pay the subscription of the community you join.
For creators
For journalists, analysts, clubs and creators who already have an audience and want to make a living from it without depending on advertising or social-media algorithms. You set up your community, choose the monthly or annual price and keep 70% of every payment.
How it works
If you want to join a community
- Browse communities for free and check each one’s introduction: what it covers, who runs it and what is included.
- Choose the monthly or annual plan. Each creator sets the price and you see it before paying.
- Pay by card through Stripe, the secure payment processor VAVEL uses.
- Get in straight away: wall, courses, live-session calendar, experiences, member leaderboard and messages.
- Cancel whenever you want. You keep access until the end of the period you have already paid for.
If you want to create your community
- Create the community: name, description, cover, intro video and what is included.
- Set the price of the monthly subscription, the annual one or both.
- Post on the wall, upload courses, schedule live sessions and talk to your members.
- VAVEL bills subscriptions through Stripe and you keep 70% of every payment.
What is inside a community
- A wall with posts from the creator and members, with photos, videos and documents.
- Courses organised into programmes, modules and episodes.
- A calendar with live sessions and events.
- Experiences and exclusive perks offered by each creator.
- A member leaderboard based on points and achievements.
- Private messages and the member list.
Who is behind it
VAVEL Premium is a product of VAVEL.com, a digital sports outlet founded in 2009 and published in several editions and languages. It uses the same account as the rest of VAVEL: one user gets you into premium.vavel.com, the app and the other VAVEL platforms.
