Posts from the Ecommerce campus’s #wins channel, captured in October 2026 from the owner’s own member account, then older screenshots members posted in the chats. Names and avatars are blurred. Tap any screenshot to see it full size. They are individual results, not typical ones, and not a promise: The Real World doesn’t publish average member earnings.

$99 / month
Conquer plan · or $996 a year (saves $192) · every campus included
The Conquer plan is $99 a month, or $996 a year. The yearly price is $192 less than twelve monthly payments ($1,188); the checkout labels it “17% off”. One membership includes every campus. Prices as shown on The Real World’s checkout on 19 October 2026; they can change, so confirm the price where you pay.
Are the prices in US dollars?
Yes. All prices on this page are in US dollars (USD). The checkout says “All Prices Are Presented In USD”, and The Real World’s support page says membership “is billed in USD by Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover”. If your card is in another currency, your bank converts the dollar charge at its own rate and may add a fee. More in joining from outside the US.
Monthly or yearly: what is the difference?
Same plan, same access. Monthly is $99 each month; yearly is $996 paid once a year, which is $192 less than $1,188 for twelve months. The checkout opens on monthly billing with a Monthly/Yearly switch at the top; a link can’t pre-select yearly, so switch it there before you pay. When we checked on 12 September 2026, the yearly option offered crypto payment only (“Join with Crypto”) and monthly offered card payment.
Why is Vanguard sold out?
Vanguard is listed at $499 a month with “everything in Conquer” plus experimental feature access, but the checkout shows it as “Sold Out”. It was shown that way on every check from 10 September to 25 October 2026, so Conquer is the only plan you can buy. We can’t say why, or if and when Vanguard will be available again.
What was the Hustlers University price, and what does it cost now?
Hustlers University cost $49.99 a month with all the courses included. It isn’t sold on its own any more: in 2022 it was relaunched as The Real World, so today’s Hustlers University price is The Real World’s, $99 a month for Conquer, with every campus included. The Hustlers University price guide has the history.
Can I cancel?
The Real World’s subscription policy says you can cancel at any time from your account settings, and access runs to the end of the period you have paid for. The monthly plan renews each month until you cancel. Subscription fees are generally non-refundable once a period has started, except where the law requires otherwise. Those are The Real World’s terms, not ours. Step by step: how to cancel The Real World.
Is there a free trial or a guarantee?
The checkout shows no free trial, no setup fee and no money-back guarantee. We don’t add any of our own.
Where do I pay?
Each join button on this page opens The Real World’s own secure checkout, and you pay there. This page has no payment form and never asks for your card or email.
Do I get every campus?
Yes. One membership includes every campus. See the courses page for what each one covers.
