Powerful Management Panels
Admin and moderator panels give you clear control over content, members, and community health — update settings, moderate posts, manage roles, and track engagement from one place.
Every core module included out of the box
Pages, groups, events, blogs, stories, reels, and more — built into Sngine, not sold as extras.
Groups
Public or private groups with member roles. Keep clubs, teams, and fan communities in one shared space.
Events
Plan meetups and launches, invite members, and collect RSVPs so everyone knows the time and place.
Blogs
Publish longer articles with categories and tags. Ideal for guides, news, and announcements.
Stories
Share photos and videos that disappear after 24 hours. Perfect for daily moments and quick updates.
Reels
Post short vertical videos in the feed. Members discover creators and trends without another app.
Offers
Promote deals from pages and groups. Members browse and save offers without leaving the community.
Jobs
List open roles and let candidates apply on your site. Keep hiring next to the community that cares.
Courses
Teach with lessons, enrollments, and progress tracking. Learners move through content at their own pace.
Forums
Threaded topics for deeper talks that stay organized. Great for support, Q&A, and long discussions.
Movies
Build a catalog members can browse and discuss. Shared watch lists and film recommendations in one place.
Games
A games hub so members can play and hang out without leaving your site — built in, not an add-on.
Monetization that powers live networks.
Turn engagement into revenue with payments, packages, ads, and tools built for real communities.
Two ad systems — yours and your users’
Sngine includes two advertising modules. System Ads let admins place network-wide ads across key areas of the platform — similar to Google AdSense placements. Ads Campaigns let users pay to run their own ads, with an approval workflow. You set cost-per-view and cost-per-click, and keep control over what goes live.
- System Ads managed from the admin panel
- Ads Campaigns for user-paid promotions
- Approval workflow with CPV and CPC pricing
Subscriptions and upgrades built in
Turn free registration into paid upgrades with Pro Packages — flexible subscription plans you design yourself. Pro members can boost posts and pages for wider reach, and unlock premium features such as live streaming, audio/video calls, and more. Each package maps to a permissions group, so you control exactly what every plan includes.
- Custom packages with your own pricing and periods
- Boosted posts and pages
- Premium feature access via permissions groups
Let creators earn — and take your cut
Enable content monetization so users, pages, and groups can charge for access — through subscription plans, paid chat, and paid posts. You set who can monetize, your commission rate, and how creators get paid (including wallet payouts). Payments go to your account; creators withdraw their share after your commission.
- Monetization plans, paid chat, and paid posts
- Admin commission on every purchase
- Creator earnings and withdrawals
Earn on every transaction
Multiple Sngine modules include built-in commissions — including Marketplace and Funding — so you take a share when users buy, sell, or raise money on your network.
- Marketplace commissions
- Funding commissions
Charge for posts that matter
Use paid modules to charge users for specific posts on the platform — so premium content stays behind a paywall while the rest of the feed stays open.
Try Demo
Keep money moving on your network
The wallet system lets users hold balance, pay for packages, ads, and paid content, and request withdrawals — so payments stay inside your platform instead of scattering across tools.
- In-platform balance
- Pay for packages, ads, and content
- Withdrawal requests
Create with AI — built into Sngine
-
AI posts: Let users draft and refine posts with AI, then publish them to the community feed.
-
AI blogs: Generate full blog articles from a simple prompt — ready to edit and publish.
-
AI images: Create visuals on demand with Replicate-powered image generation.
Credits you control, usage you can trust

-
Generated image cost: Define a clear credit price for every AI-generated image.

Admin pricing: Manage credit costs from the admin panel and adjust them as your community grows.

We believe in the power of community
I was hesitating between Sngine and another script, but choosing Sngine was definitely the right decision. The script is easy to use, feature-rich, and the support team is outstanding. They respond quickly and are always helpful. I'm very satisfied with my purchase and highly recommend it.

After 31 years in web development, I was ready for something that was not static. After trying several social network scripts/platforms, we decided that Sngine was the perfect fit. Trust me, this is so much more fun for you and your clients.
