Our new payment pages are sleeker and more powerful than ever.
This new checkout experience is especially suited for digital product downloads.

This Payment Page Builder differs to our original template in that it has far more functionality but less design/styling customisation. The image below shows you how we indicate the difference between payment pages in the same course that either use our original template or our new Payment Page Builder (labelled as ”new”). 

We have plenty of tips to share so we’ve broken our Payment Page Builder guide into multiple help docs, to make for easier (and less overwhelming) navigating. Below, we cover some important things to be aware of and to give some thought to. Once you’ve reviewed this info, feel free to jump into the other help docs (links at the bottom of this page)!
To make the build of your new payment page easier, you’ll want to be aware of and consider a few things upfront.
That said, some of the below might only make more sense once you’re actively building a payment page but it’s still good to be aware of these things. 
If you decide to use our Stripe integration, please note that you cannot charge for a course i.e. select a price nor currency until you connect a Stripe account. We recommend not creating a payment page (or at least the final version of one) until you’ve connected the two tools.
Currently, when a customer purchases a digital product, they will be enrolled into the “course” which houses the product’s payment page (more about this below). This means that if you want them to pay for any additional digital products you later add to the same course (or if you need the customer to make a repeat purchase e.g. of a 1:1 coaching call), you will need to first revoke their course access and have them complete your new/updated payment page. (This will be easier in a future rollout!)
The new Payment Page Builder comes with a lot more settings so make use of the Back to Editor/Return to Payment Page option at the very top of the course’s left sidebar menu to navigate between the deeper settings of a particular payment page and your course’s other payment pages.

Need to duplicate or delete a payment page? While in the edit view of the payment page, click the Back to Editor option at the top of the left sidebar menu. Then, hover over the name of your payment page in the left sidebar menu until you see a pencil (edit) icon. Clicking that icon will reveal a list of options or settings.

Be sure to also browse our list of Future Improvements at the very bottom of this help doc to ensure you’re aware of what is or isn’t currently possible with this version of the Payment Page Builder.
Give some thought to what payment options you will be offering your customers. For example:
Will you be charging a fixed, one-time price? If yes, will you offer your customers an instalment/payment plan if they’re unable to pay the once-off price? Alternatively, maybe you want to offer a subscription? Here are the possible combinations for when you get to the Product > Details tab of your payment page:
A one-time price and only allowing for a once-off payment → select Single price as your Pricing type and then One-time as your Billing model.
A one-time price and offering customers one or more instalment plan(s) → select Multiple price as your Pricing type, save and then jump to the Variants tab to set up the one-time and instalment options.
A recurring subscription with only one subscription payment plan → select Single price as your Pricing type and then Payment Plan as your Billing model.
A recurring subscription with multiple subscription payment plans → select Multiple price as your Pricing type, save and then jump to the Variants tab to set up each of your recurring/instalment options.
If you’d prefer, you can also enable your customers to submit what they’re willing to pay and you can define a minimum you’re willing to accept. (During setup, in the Product > Details tab, be sure to select Pay what you want as your Billing Model.) Important to know about Pay what you want (PWYW):
It’s only intended for once-off payments. If you have a recurring subscription/membership model, we recommend defining a few options you’d be willing to offer your customers and setting those up as different recurring payment plans in the Product > Variants tab of your payment page.
Promo codes do not apply to PWYW.
PWYW does not apply to upsells i.e. a customer will need to pay the price of the upsell and any amount they insert as PWYW will be an additional cost to them.
Want to make use of course affiliates? Affiliates essentially work the same way as with our traditional payment pages. See more here.
There are several payment options available to you. You can select any of the following:
accept cards only, OR
accept cards and Apple Pay/Google Pay, OR
accept multiple payment methods.
Apple Pay or Google Pay
Note that if you choose the second option above and your customers want to use Apple Pay or Google Pay, they need to be using eligible devices in order to do so. (Your payment page also has to have a price(s) set that is greater than zero in order for these options to display.)
Customers who do not have Apple Pay or Google Pay set up on their devices will not be able to view these options during checkout, only the card payment option.
Multiple Payment Methods
If you decide to offer multiple payment methods, you need to enable all the payment methods you’re willing to accept in the Payment Method settings of your connected Stripe account. This can include Apple Pay and Google Pay (please see the section above).
Set the Type filter to Your connected platforms.
Find the Payment configuration called Default for Teachery.co and click into it.
Scroll through the list of payment methods and Enable each additional payment method you want to offer. Please note the minimum criteria listed by Stripe in each case.

What information will you want to gather from your customers? The bare minimum required fields are a First Name, Last Name, and Email Address. If you make use of Stripe Tax, additional required fields will automatically display, as Stripe requires certain fields to calculate/track tax.
What terms and conditions will you need to communicate to customers and have them accept? (During setup, in the Checkout > Checkout Fields tab, you can add a Terms field and link to your terms and conditions - mark it as Required to ensure customers accept them as part of checkout.) On a related note, here’s a handy help doc about GDPR.
Will you want to add customers to a mailing list in an external email service provider (e.g. Mailchimp)? (During setup, in the After Payment > Integrations tab, you can connect either Kit, Mailchimp, Mailerlite, or Flodesk as your email provider. Refer to their dedicated help docs for more.) If you choose not to collect email addresses this way, you can always find your customers’ email addresses in your Customers CSV export. At all times, be sure to make your customers aware that by purchasing, they’re being added to a mailing list or allow them to opt out.
If you’re selling a digital download of some kind, you may be wondering how your customers can access these downloads at the time of purchase - but also long after it.
If you choose to display a confirmation message on successful checkout, there will be an option for you to display the download(s) as part of that confirmation message. More specifically:
If you choose to display a list of the file(s), customers can immediately download the file(s) directly in the confirmation page.
If you choose to display a button to view the file(s), customers who are brand new to Teachery will be prompted to first set a password (this creates a Teachery account) and will only then be directed to a dedicated Downloads page (example pictured below) where they can download their files. Existing Teachery customers will go directly to the Downloads page. This option is useful if you’re selling an actual course too, and not just a download(s) or if you want your users to easily return to their downloads long into the future.

In your welcome email (which we recommend keeping enabled and which will be triggered when a customer makes a purchase), we automatically include download links.
Currently, the selling of digital downloads is housed within a Teachery “course”, but that may not be what you need or want. So our long-term plan is to eventually separate the sale of digital downloads from courses to make it easier for creators who have no need for a course. Until then, we recommend making use of the course Overview page (accessible via the course’s left sidebar menu under Course Pages) to include a link to the downloads purchased by your customers. Why? Because customers will see your “course” (which houses your file downloads) in their Learn page and this could serve as a great way for them to quickly access their downloads at any time.
Navigate to your course overview page, populate the available content blocks with a thank you message or any other helpful content for your customers (e.g. how to get hold of you) and then include a link to the download(s) they purchased. The link to use is as follows: your course URL followed by /downloads e.g. https://mycourse.teachery.co/downloads.
An example of a simple overview page is pictured below. As in this example, you can even set a header image, but that’s optional. You can also hide the progress bar (that’s only useful for courses). That’s all you need - you can keep it super simple.
You don’t need to have any course lessons set up (unless you’d like to add any other useful content/resources for your customers or promote other products, etc.).
Have an additional digital product to sell that you don’t want existing customers or a particular tier of members to access? Create a new payment page within that same course. In this new payment page, you should see any files you’d previously used in this course’s other payment pages. Upload more files as needed and select or deselect those you want to include in this new offer. Double-check that the new files are deselected in other payment pages if you don’t want other customers/tiers to have access to them. When a new customer makes a purchase using this payment page, their Downloads page will look different to a customer who bought using another payment page.

This is a list of functionality/features not currently available but on our consideration list of future improvements:
Post-checkout upsells or tripwires (but we do enable redirects).
Embedding your payment page.
Digital product payment pages that are independent of courses, allowing for seamless repeat purchases. (Need a workaround? See our Important to Know section above.)
Seamless switching of customers’ subscriptions or payment plans (for now, you will need to cancel the subscription and have the customer complete checkout again).
More powerful styling, including custom fonts.
Copying the styling of one payment page to another. (Need a workaround? Simply duplicate the payment page within the same or different course.)
Adding more custom fields to the Gifting functionality.
Monitor or contribute to our roadmap for more.
