Built by Wbcom Designs since 2013
The team behind Reign.
Reign is built by Wbcom Designs - a WordPress community engineering studio that has been shipping for 13 years. We make Reign because we needed it on our own client work. Then 20,000+ other community builders started using it too.

How we work
Four principles. Tested on 2,000+ builds.
If a Reign decision feels off, one of these is the reason.
Self-hosted ownership
Every Wbcom product runs on WordPress, on your hosting, on your domain. No platform tax, no member cap, no walled garden.
Real customers, real builds
2,000+ community sites the Wbcom team built for paying clients since 2013. We dogfood every product on our own client work before shipping it to the public.
Honest comparisons
Our /alternatives/ pages name where competitors win. BuddyBoss has the mobile app, Circle has better default UX, Skool has tighter gamification. We say it.
No marketing fluff
Plain English explanations. No "seamlessly", no "leverage", no "unlock the potential". If you need a glossary, we wrote you one at /glossary/.
