Selling courses
Prices, taking payments, coupons, learning paths, refunds, and the invoices made in your books.
Paid courses need Standard or higher.
Set a price
On the course's Settings > Who can see and join, set Who can join to People pay to join, then:
- Price;
- Was (crossed out) - an old price shown crossed out (optional);
- GST % - leave it blank to use your usual rate.
Settings > Payments > Course prices include tax decides whether learners pay the price shown.
Take payments
Connect your online payment gateway in Integrations (Settings > Payments > Connect a payment gateway). Money goes straight to your own payment account; Ellibo takes no fee. Free courses work without a gateway.
When the payment goes through, the learner gets their place, a sign-in link and the receipt straight away.
Coupons
Coupons (from Orders): a Code, Percent off or an amount off, Only for (some courses and paths, or all of them), Uses (0 = no limit) and Valid until. Learners type the code at checkout.
Learning paths (Professional and up)
Learning paths put several courses together - for example a "Sales starter" path of three courses:
- Courses, in order, and a Price (0 = free) for the whole path;
- In order: each course opens when the one before is finished;
- Published (on your learner site).
Learners see the path in the catalogue, and finishing it can give a path certificate. Add learners to the path gives places on all its courses.
Orders and refunds
Orders lists every purchase, with a CSV download. Open one to see its invoice and places, or click Refund:
- Amount, How the money goes back, Paid from and a Reason;
- Also end the learner's access - leave it off to let them keep the course.
Your books
Every paid order makes a sales invoice and its payment in Accounting, with GST. A refund makes a credit note. The SAC code on course invoices is on Settings > Payments (999293 unless you change it - ask your accountant which code fits).
