“Little to no effort at communication. I was told when I paid $5K that they would be accountability partners. LOL The learning modules and daily zooms are good but they don't even email or text reminders. Promotional videos don't explain the difference between gross revenue and profits…”

Reviewers describe video modules with notes, daily Zoom calls, podcasts, and sections on Amazon FBA, Amazon wholesale, TikTok Shop and Shopify.

Will I make money on Amazon with it?

Some reviewers report sales, but one warns that promo videos do not explain the difference between gross revenue and profit. Budget for inventory and fees on top of the course.

Does Ecom Degree University actually work?

Reviews are mixed. A reviewer reports over $100K in sales in their first 11 months, while others say recent reviews are mostly critical, 11 of the 60 newest were written within a day of purchase, and one paid $5K for accountability partners that never came.

Our call: skip it

The modules get praise, but the business runs on webinars and upsells, and recent buyers describe weak support. Watch the independent reviews, sleep on any webinar offer, and keep your $1,200 or more until you know what you are buying.
