Overview & Methodology
The Teachable Pro plan ($119/month billed annually) charges a 0% platform transaction fee on all student course and digital coaching sales. Creators pay only standard payment gateway processing (2.9% + $0.30 via Teachable:pay or Stripe).
Mathematical Formulation
Payment Fee = (Course Price × 0.029) + $0.30. Net Course Creator Payout = Course Price - Payment Fee.Optimization Best Practices
Sell high-ticket courses ($199–$999) to easily amortize the $119 monthly subscription cost across just 1 or 2 sales.
Leverage Teachable’s native 1-click upsells at checkout to increase average student transaction value by 20% to 30%.
Enable installment payment plans (e.g., 3 payments of $75) to significantly reduce sticker shock for premium masterclasses.
