Jakość treści i wykonania

Kursy są nagrane pięknie, czysty dźwięk, czytelne napisy. Po kontakcie z platformą zostało poczucie spokoju i jasności. To wzięło się z klarownego układu modułów i certyfikatów. Miejcie oko na to, co jest w Plus, a co kupowane na zawsze.

Szybki start i inspiracja

Rejestracja zajęła chwilę, instrukcje wprowadziły krok po kroku. Edytor lekcji czytelny, postęp śledzi się automatycznie. Zaskoczyły świetne napisy i projekty do wykonania. Trochę zamieszania z Plus vs pojedyncze kursy, ale same zajęcia mega motywujące.

Dobre kursy, mylące ceny

Start łatwy, panel przejrzysty, kursy naprawdę dopracowane. Problem pojawił się przy rozliczeniu - Plus kontra zakup na stałe bywa niejasny. Kontakt z supportem po 24 h, odpowiedzi rzeczowe, ale mało konkretne. Najbardziej podobała mi się jakość instruktorów, najmniej automatyczne odnowienie.

Auto-odnowienie i wnioski

Dostałem mail o odnowieniu Plus dzień po zakończeniu kursu i zrobiło się nerwowo. Po czacie zwrócili część środków, ale trwało to kilka dni. Teraz sprawdzam terminy i korzystam głównie z pojedynczych kursów.

Gubiące się subskrypcje

Podczas darmowego triala wyskoczyło automatyczne odnowienie i zrobiło się nerwowo. Czat wyjaśnił zasady po kilkunastu godzinach. Ulga, ale wrażenie lekkiego chaosu zostało.

Świetne kursy, mętne ceny

Zacząłem od kursu ilustracji i sama platforma działa płynnie: łatwe logowanie, porządne napisy, fajna sekcja projektów. Problem pojawił się przy płatnościach - Plus, kredyty, promocje mieszają w głowie. Support odpisał po dwóch dniach. Mimo tego instruktorzy naprawdę topowi.

Pomoc szybka i konkretna

Na czacie odpowiedzieli w 5 minut, jasno wyjaśnili różnicę między Plus a zakupem na stałe. Problem z podwójną płatnością rozwiązany od razu.

Szybki start i inspiracja

Rejestracja zajęła mi minutę, a pierwsze lekcje włączyłam bez kombinowania. Panel kursu czytelny, zadania krok po kroku, napisy PL dokładne. Najbardziej zachwyciła mnie jakość wideo i projekty domowe. Jedynie cennik Plus vs pojedyncze kursy wymaga uważnego czytania.

Kursy jak w kreatywnej klasie

Założyłem konto w kilka minut, płatność poszła gładko, a pierwszy kurs ilustracji od razu wciągnął. Interfejs czytelny, napisy PL pomagają. Pytanie na forum dostało odpowiedź tego samego dnia. Najbardziej podoba mi się praktyczne zadanie domowe i feedback społeczności.

Motywacja do nauki wróciła

Po pierwszych lekcjach złapałem flow. Serio, dawno nie czułem takiej chęci do szkicowania wieczorem. Parę potknięć przy warstwach w Procreate, ale instruktor tłumaczy po ludzku i to podnosi na duchu.

polished classes, useful files

I felt motivated during the course and satisfied afterward because the teacher’s demos were crisp and the resources practical. Subtitles and pacing made it easy to follow.

learning that sticks

I joined a lettering course on Domestika.org and the onboarding was smooth. The preview made it easy to commit. Clear lessons, downloadable files, and the community feedback kept me practicing daily.

posting my first project

I hit publish and saw kind comments roll in. Short notes, real tips. It made me want to try again with bolder color.

support for a stuck upload

My project file wouldn’t upload. They replied fast, walked me through a fix, and it posted. Kind tone, clear steps, issue gone.

Scam

They scam you into subscriptions with huge fees. The courses are often outdated and their marketing isn't clear. The platform not professional. Avoid at all costs.

Predatory and Scammy pricing policies

I would leave zero stars if I could. I signed up in 2023 for their yearly program. At $40, it seemed reasonable for unlimited access. I didn’t end up using the platform, and meant to cancel, but they send absolutely no billing or subscription emails, so after awhile I thought I must’ve already cancelled, or maybe never really signed up at all. Last year when it renewed, with no email notifications, the charge for $84 actually slipped right past me. This year, the $329 charge jumped out at me on my bank account! I didn’t even know what it was for - I had to go figure it out in my PayPal account. So to review, $39.99 first year (“discounted”), $84 second year (I assume “regular price”), then $329 third year????? They literally QUADRUPLED the price!!! All without ever once sending a billing email. Not a notification it was about to renew, nor a notification afterwards that it had renewed. Even on their website in my profile, they don’t post the invoice till AFTER they’ve sent it for payment, so you get NO NOTIFICATION, and have no way to cancel before they charge you! Oh, and of course they offer NO REFUNDS for the annual membership. Please Google Domestika reviews. You’ll see I’m not the only one this has happened to. It is happening to people with disturbing regularity. Do yourself a favor and find another platform with better courses and clear pricing!!! This is unbelievable that a company can get away with stuff like this in this day and age!!!

Got one course while trying the free trial

Got one course while trying the free trial, then without any warning I was charged for a full year subscription costing 548 AUD. I never agreed to that, no email was sent to me, I want a refund! Such a ripoff company

Misleading marketing

Misleading marketing, they lure you in with a free trial and then charge you a lot of money without warning, one of those common bad online scams you should avoid, be careful and don’t fall for it!

Trash trash trash, this company is a ripoff

Trash trash trash, this company is a ripoff and they'll steal your money. They won’t talk to you at all. Stay far away.

avoid this company. it feels like a scam.

avoid this company. it feels like a scam. i have reported Domeskica to Action Fraud right away for what looks like a fake subscription. if you had the same problem, and judging by the 1.7 rating you probably did, please report them too. i’m also going to notify National Trading Standards, they deal with online scams, fake websites, and tricky subscriptions.

Απατεώνες

Δυστυχώς είμαι άλλος ένας άνθρωπος που εξαπάτησε η domestika!!! Με το γνωστό κόλπο (όπως κατάλαβα εκ των υστέρων) της ετήσιας συνδρομής για το plus...

Awful!!! No stars for Domestika!!!

I bought a short course and later realized I was charged for a Domestika Plus subscription (311.24EUR), which I never signed up for. Too much advertising and important details buried in tiny print at the bottom of the page.

I signed up for the free trial with a free course

I signed up for the free trial with a free course, but when I went to pay, it switched to 0,99, which seemed a bit odd, but I went along with it. After checking everything looked good, I clicked to proceed to the next page and suddenly it jumped to 5,99€, which caught me off guard, but I clicked pay anyway since the 0,99 had seemed correct. This is highly suspicious and should be illegal where I live! I contacted them for a refund right away. When I tried to cancel my subscription in the app, it just showed "loading," but my phone and their servers were working fine. It seemed like they purposely messed with this part to make it hard to cancel unless you log into your computer. This feels wrong and unfair. They are not only taking advantage of users but also ruining platforms for artists.

This is one of the greatest courses I've ever seen.

This is one of the greatest courses I've ever seen. The explanations are simple, easy to understand, and the demonstrations are helpful. I would highly reccomend it.

If I could rate them less than 1 star, I definitely would.

If I could rate them less than 1 star, I definitely would. They use sneaky methods to trap users into paying for yearly plans. I paid just £1 for a course during their holiday deal, but it quickly became obvious that they trick people into signing up for yearly subscriptions. They probably made a fortune off this, and it’s dishonest. They should be investigated.

Domestika is running a scam

Be very careful with the company Domestika! They use false advertising. I signed up for a spoon carving course taught by @a.ndrea_cortes for $1.99 USD, only to find they charged me an extra $108.86 USD without my permission. For this amount of money I could have done an in person spoon carving course. This company does not respond to you except with bots. They are however able to limit disgruntled customers sharing their experiences on social media (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter/X), to prevent them warning prospective customers about their deceitful practices. I have been unsuccessful in getting my money back from my bank and PayPal. I don’t believe Domestika is abiding by Australian Consumer Laws & has taken the funds illegally. I have reported this matter to Australian Federal Police and SCAMWatch (who share information with the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission). The spoon carving community is very small and I will be sharing my experience about this company on every internet platform that I can (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, LinkedIn, Google review etc), because I do believe this company has used fraudulent tactics to advertise their courses. Tens of thousands of customers been scammed by Domestika Inc. Please do your due diligence and never deal with them (give your bank details), otherwise you will be scammed too! If you have been scammed please sign the Change Org petition called ‘Domestika Estafadores’ (with 12+ K signatures and counting), to help get a class action off the ground. Sorry I can't post the email address here!

They have destroyed a community that

They have destroyed a community that used to offer a clear way to buy classes for about £7.99 each, and now it's a deceptive marketing trick, making you pay £90 per year and £1 per class that you no longer actually own. The people who create the video content are taken advantage of, and they use the same unfair methods as Spotify to take advantage of the creators. I really dislike what Domestika has turned into.

CONVICTORS!

CONVICTORS! They quietly enroll you in an anual subscription. Once you purchase a course, you’re automatically signed up for a trial, which then gets renewed without you knowing. Sneaky!

SCAM

DO NOT purchase from this company. They use a classic negative option billing scam to trap customers. Here's how it works: they lure you in with a discounted price for a single class but then automatically enroll you in an annual subscription without clearly disclosing this upfront. Contacting customer support is virtually impossible. If you manage to get through, you’ll receive an automated response citing their strict no-refund policy. This issue is so widespread that their email begins with, “Regarding your request, if you are writing to us because you have received a charge that you do not recognize...” After that, you will not receive any further communication from customer support—ever. This is a predatory practice that preys on unsuspecting customers. Avoid this company at all costs. If I could rate it 0 stars, I would.

Domestika has pressured and intimidated the admins

Domestika has pressured and intimidated the admins of the Facebook scam group. They hired powerful lawyers and used harsh tactics to shut the group down. This happened even though over 3.6k dissatisfied victims were supporting each other there. It would be better if this company spent more time improving their services, instead of trying to silence unhappy customers. Recently, they’ve claimed that there are over 1000 courses available in the plus membership, but they provide no proof. On their website, there are fewer than 100 courses listed in the membership, making their ads misleading. Not a great company at all.
