How to Download Hotmart Classes (2026): Step-by-Step Guide

To download Hotmart classes, you can use three main paths: the official download option when the course enables it, recording the screen with a capture program, or a browser extension like Hotmart Downloader, which adds a download button directly on the player. The best method depends on whether the creator allows downloads, whether you just want to watch offline, or whether you want an organized file saved on your computer.

In this guide, you will see the step-by-step process for each method, what works in 2026, the limits of each one, and where an extension like Hotmart Downloader actually solves the problem.

Before anything: what is allowed when downloading Hotmart classes

Before downloading any class, it is important to understand what is usually allowed and what is not.

1. Read the course terms. Each creator can set different rules. Some enable downloads, others only allow streaming inside the platform.

2. Use it only for personal study. Downloading classes to watch offline, review content, and take notes generally falls under personal use. Sharing in groups, reselling, or uploading to other sites tends to violate copyright.

3. Do not share the downloaded file. Even if the course allows downloads, that does not give you the right to redistribute the classes.

4. Use tools that keep you in your own account. Be wary of sites that ask for your Hotmart login and password. Prefer methods that work inside your own browser, in your authenticated session.

Method 1: use Hotmart's official download (when it exists)

Some courses on Hotmart offer native downloads of materials, sometimes including video, sometimes only PDFs and extra files.

Step by step

1. Go to the official Hotmart site and sign in to your account.
2. Click "My purchases" and open the course you want.
3. Enter the class you want to download.
4. Look for buttons like "Download", "Save video", or down-arrow icons near the player or the materials list.
5. Click the download button and choose where to save the file on your computer or phone.

Where this method works well

• When the creator explicitly enables the download of the videos.
• For downloading PDFs, spreadsheets, and extra materials, which more often have native downloads.
• For anyone who wants the simplest solution, without installing anything.

Where this method fails

• On many courses, no video download button shows up at all.
• Sometimes only the Hotmart app allows offline viewing, but it does not deliver a video file on your device.
• You have no control over file quality, file name, or where it is saved beyond the browser's default options.

If you have gotten this far and found no button to download your classes, this is exactly the kind of situation where specific download extensions can help.

Method 2: recording the screen while the class plays

If the course does not enable downloads and you just want a copy to review later, one option is a screen recorder. It does not download the original file, but it creates a new video with what appears on screen and plays in the audio.

Step by step (computer)

1. Open the Hotmart class you want to record in your browser.
2. Install or open a screen recording program of your choice on your computer.
3. Select the browser window or the exact area where the class video appears.
4. Adjust the audio so the class sound is captured clearly.
5. Click Record in the program.
6. Press play on the Hotmart class and let it run to the end.
7. When it finishes, stop the recording and save the generated video file on your computer.

Where this method works well

• When you need a quick copy of a specific part of the class.
• For capturing the instructor's on-screen notes, chat, and other elements beyond the video itself.
• Works even if the player blocks other types of download.

Where this method fails

• You need to watch the entire class in real time; you cannot speed it up much.
• Quality depends on your screen and the program; it can end up worse than the original.
• Files can end up large and heavy.
• If you need to record many classes, the process becomes slow and repetitive.

Method 3: download classes with the Hotmart Downloader extension

When there is no native download and recording the screen is tedious, an alternative is a Chrome extension built for Hotmart, like Hotmart Downloader. It detects the video inside the Hotmart player and adds a download button directly in your browser.

How Hotmart Downloader works

• It was built to work only on Hotmart domains, such as hotmart.com, club.hotmart.com, hotmartcdn.com, and hotmartplayer.com.
• You keep accessing your classes as usual; the extension runs in the background in Chrome.
• When you open a compatible class, it tries to identify the video stream and shows a download button.
• Each downloaded video costs credits, and you control how many you use per month.

Step by step to install and use it

1. Open Chrome on your computer.
2. Go to the Hotmart Downloader page on the Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/hhmbdiecikalaoajgplbkjpccpdbncdc.
3. Click "Add to Chrome" and confirm with "Add extension".
4. Once installed, sign in to your Hotmart Downloader user account, if prompted.
5. Go to the Hotmart site and sign in to your account normally.
6. Open the course and the class you want to download.
7. Wait a few seconds for the extension to detect the video in the player.
8. Click the download button the extension shows (usually near the player or the extension icon).
9. Choose where to save the file and wait for the download to finish.

Credits and limits

Hotmart Downloader works with a per-video credit system:

• 15 free credits as soon as you sign up with Google (equivalent to about 3 videos, at an average cost of 5 credits per video).
• Standard plan: 100 credits per month, about 20 videos.
• Pro plan: 150 credits per month, about 30 videos and a lower cost per download.

This helps you keep track of your monthly usage, knowing in advance how many classes you can download.

Where this method works well

• For anyone who wants organized .mp4 files on their computer, separated by module or topic.
• When the course does not show a download button or only enables streaming.
• For downloading several classes from the same course without recording the screen one by one.
• For anyone who always uses Chrome on desktop or laptop.

Where this method fails

• The extension only works on Chrome (or Chrome-Web-Store-compatible browsers) on a computer; it is not a solution for phones.
• Some videos may use setups or protections that the extension cannot identify.
• Usage is limited by the number of credits you have each month.

Comparing methods to download Hotmart classes

Once you understand the profile of each method, it becomes easier to choose the right one for each situation.

Method	What you need	Main advantages	Main limitations	Best for
Hotmart's official download	Course with download enabled	Simple, right on the platform	Depends on the creator enabling it; does not always include video	Anyone who only needs a few materials and PDFs
Offline viewing in the app	Hotmart app on phone	Useful while travelling, works without internet	No .mp4 file is generated; access tied to the app	Anyone who only watches on their phone
Screen recording	Capture program + free time	Works almost always, including for specific clips	Slow, variable quality, large files	Anyone who wants specific clips
Hotmart Downloader (extension)	Chrome on desktop + credits	Downloads the video as a file, more control and order	Does not work on phones; limited by monthly credits	Anyone building an organized library

If your goal is to keep an organized library of Hotmart classes to review year after year, combining the official download (when it exists) with the Hotmart Downloader extension tends to be the most practical option.

Common questions and problems when trying to download classes

The download button does not appear on the class

• Not every course enables native downloads. If you only use Hotmart's default player, it is normal not to see any option.
• With Hotmart Downloader, the button only appears when the extension recognizes the player and the video stream. Try opening a different class in the same course or reloading the page.

I downloaded the class, but the file does not open

1. Check whether the download finished completely or stopped halfway.
2. Confirm the file extension (for example, .mp4).
3. Try opening it with a versatile player on your computer, like VLC or another player that supports multiple formats.

If it still does not open, try downloading it again. Connection interruptions can corrupt the file.

I do not have space on my phone or computer

• Prioritize downloading only the modules you are actually studying right now.
• After watching and taking notes, consider moving the files to an external drive or private cloud storage.
• Use clear folder names, like Course-Name/Module-01/Class-01-intro.mp4.

The short version

You can download Hotmart classes in three main ways in 2026: when the course enables an official download, by recording the screen, or by using a Chrome extension like Hotmart Downloader to generate video files on your computer. Use the native download whenever it exists, turn to screen recording for one-off cases, and leave the extension for when you need to download several classes and keep everything organized, always respecting the course terms and the creator's rights.

Before planning offline study, confirm how long you can access your Hotmart course. The deadline depends on your purchase terms, and saving a lesson does not extend the creator's authorization.
