The One Comma Club Challenge is a free training from ClickFunnels designed to help beginners earn their first $1,000 online.

But before you sign up, there are a few important things you should know:

I recently completed the challenge myself, so in this article, I’ll walk you through everything you should realistically know before signing up.

I’ll also share my personal experience going through the full training so you can decide whether it makes sense for you.

What Is the One Comma Club Challenge?

The One Comma Club Challenge is a training program organized by Russell Brunson of ClickFunnels.

The goal is simple: they give you all the information, frameworks, and tools you need to earn your first thousand dollars online.

It’s called the “One Comma Club” because in English, the first thousand is written with a comma after the first digit – so your first $1,000 is your first “one comma” milestone.

Inside the challenge, there’s a five-day training program focused entirely on how to make that first thousand.

I’ll be honest with you, though – when I took it, there were actually six days, plus a pre-training introduction showing what to expect. So plan accordingly.

What’s the Training Actually Like?

I’ll tell you what surprised me: it wasn’t boring. Not even close.

The training has a more podcast-style feel, with interview-style guests sharing their experiences and results.

It’s engaging because it’s structured differently from the usual “here’s a slide deck, now take notes” approach.

We mostly focused on tools and how to actually use them to build a successful offer or achieve something by building funnels for others.

Each daily session varied quite a bit in length – from around 50 minutes on the shorter days, up to 4 hours and 20 minutes on the heavier ones.

When I added it all up, the full training clocked in at around 20 hours total.

In addition to the main sessions, there were also VIP sessions each day (more on that in a moment).

And here’s a nice motivational touch: everyone who completes the challenge and earns their first $1,000 receives a special One Comma Club Award trophy.

How Much Does It Cost?

The challenge itself is completely free.

But like most things in the ClickFunnels world, there are a few upsells inside.

None of them are mandatory – you evaluate them based on your own needs.

Here’s a breakdown of what’s available:

What does the Funnel Builder Certification include?

You get a lifetime ClickFunnels agency account (note: there’s a $297 yearly maintenance fee for support and product development – I’m not sure what happens if you choose not to pay that after the first year).

You also get 50 reseller/agency accounts to give to clients. With these, you can set up a ClickFunnels account for your clients; they pay you $97/month, and you keep the profit.

On top of that, you get the official Funnel Builder Certification itself, which ends with a test and certificate proving you’re a qualified funnel builder.

What I Actually Bought

I bought the VIP Pass and the Gold Card – mainly because I wanted replay access and to be able to go through everything at my own pace.

I’m in Lithuania, and the sessions are held in U.S. time, which isn’t always convenient for me.

Having replays meant I could follow along properly without rushing.

I haven’t bought the Funnel Builder Certification yet, but I’m seriously considering it.

I’ve been paying $2,000 a year for my ClickFunnels account since the day ClickFunnels 2.0 launched.

And since I’ve already been paying for almost 4 years, a lifetime account looks like a logical next move for me.

Do I regret anything I bought?

No.

I learned a lot of new things I genuinely didn’t know before – including that ClickFunnels has quite a few AI tools I hadn’t been aware of.

Some of those tools were only available to people who bought the main offer (like a better, improved version of the ClickFunnels AI funnel builder), but the training itself opened my eyes to things I was missing.

Should You Register?

The training is absolutely worth it.

It’s free, it’s engaging, and if you invest even a bit of your time, you’ll come away with a lot of value.

That said, there are a few things I’d want you to honestly think about before you sign up.

First: time.

The full training totals around 20 hours.

If you can’t attend live, the VIP Pass (which is free with a ClickFunnels trial and you can cancel anytime) is worth it for the replays alone.

But if you genuinely won’t have the time to go through it all, even a free challenge can become a waste – because the value is in actually absorbing the information.

Second: the challenge is built around the main offer.

You will be encouraged throughout to buy the Funnel Builder Certification.

That’s just the reality of how it’s structured.

So before you go in, ask yourself: even if you don’t buy the main offer, will this challenge still be valuable for you?

And if you do decide to buy it, can you afford it? (By the way, I have an interesting solution for this, so keep reading)

Third: tools don’t replace discipline.

If you buy the main offer, you’re getting tools and training.

Becoming successful still depends entirely on you – your consistency, your offer, and whether you can actually commit the time to build something real.

If you’re still unsure what you’d sell or whether you can deliver on it, don’t rush into the $5,500 purchase.

Personally, I think the lifetime account makes sense if you know you’ll be using ClickFunnels for at least 2+ years and you already have something working – or you’re confident you will.

If you’re still figuring out your offer, I’d get value from the free training first and revisit the bigger decision later.

Not Ready for the $5,500 Offer? Here’s What I’d Suggest Instead

If you go through the challenge and the lifetime account price feels too big right now, that’s completely fine.

And luckily, I have a solution for that.

So here’s my suggestion: start with the ClickFunnels 30-day free trial.

By the way, there’s also another specific offer you should know about: 3 months for $99, which gives you the Start Plan that normally costs $197 per month.

That’s a significant saving, and it gives you real breathing room to test your idea without a major upfront commitment.

Use that time to explore the platform, get familiar with the tools, and start developing your idea or offer.

After the trial, you can move to a monthly plan and keep building from there.

The key point here is this:

By paying smaller amounts monthly, you can build your offer, validate it, and see real progress.

Then, when you’re confident things are working (or you’re simply ready), you can come back and invest in the lifetime account through the One Comma Club Challenge offer.

And here’s something important to know: existing ClickFunnels users can claim that offer too.

So if you’re already paying monthly, you’re not locked out of anything – you can upgrade whenever the timing makes sense for you.

A Note on Timing – Especially If You’re in Europe

This is something I want to flag specifically for anyone outside the U.S.: the challenge sessions, at least in my Lithuanian time zone, were always held in the evening.

So if you’re in Europe, you need to honestly ask yourself whether you can set aside your evenings for the duration of the challenge if you want to watch it live.

In the U.S., it runs during the day, depending on where you are. For Europeans, these are happening in the evening.

That said, this is exactly why I’d recommend claiming the VIP Pass.

I couldn’t always watch live, so I relied heavily on replays.

And it worked perfectly fine for me because I was able watch on my own schedule.

Would I Do It Again?

Absolutely, yes. Without hesitation.

Knowing everything I know now, I’d sign up again, and I’d definitely take the VIP Pass again – for the replay access alone.

As for the ClickFunnels lifetime account, I haven’t bought it yet – but I plan to once my current annual subscription expires.

The Award. And Why It’s More Than Just a Trophy

One thing worth mentioning that I didn’t fully cover earlier: ClickFunnels really loves rewarding people with physical elements that prove you’ve completed their training.

The One Comma Club Award.

It’s a real, physical trophy that gets shipped directly to your home – anywhere in the world.

It’s actually great-looking, and it serves as proof that you completed the challenge and earned your first $1,000 with ClickFunnels.

But here’s what makes it more meaningful: this is just the beginning of a bigger journey.

After the One Comma Club, there’s the Two Comma Club – for people who’ve earned their first million online.

And beyond that, there are even higher tiers to aim for.

So the challenge, and that first award, is the starting point of a real progression – from your first thousand, toward something much bigger.

If that kind of structured journey motivates you, that’s another reason this challenge is worth your time.

My Recommendation

The training alone is absolutely worth it.

It gives you the background you need to get started and shows you the tools that can help you get there.

But (and this is important) you have to be truly honest with yourself about whether you’re actually going to commit to it.

Because if the answer is yes, this training and the tools it introduces will make the whole journey a lot easier.

So if you’re ready to commit, go through it. You won’t regret it.

Next Step: How to Drive Buyers to Your Funnels

One thing I’ll be straight about:

The One Comma Club Challenge doesn’t cover how to drive traffic and leads to your funnels.

That’s the one piece is missing about the challenge – and it’s something you’ll need to figure out if you want real results.

But that’s exactly where the next step comes in.

Two resources I’d equally recommend looking at are the Traffic Secrets book and the One Funnel Away Challenge.

Traffic Secrets gives you a deep understanding of how to attract the right people to your offer.

The One Funnel Away Challenge, on the other hand, walks you through building and launching your funnel while covering traffic and lead generation in real depth.

Together, they cover what the One Comma Club Challenge leaves open.
