Frequently asked questions

How does Teachable Payments handle taxes?

Teachable Payments automatically calculates, collects, and remits sales tax, VAT, and GST on every sale across 45+ countries. You don't file anything, track any jurisdictions, or chase any deadlines.

What payment methods does Teachable Payments accept?

Teachable Payments supports 35+ local payment methods across 40+ markets, including PIX (Brazil), iDEAL (Netherlands), SEPA (Europe), and regional Buy Now Pay Later options. These appear automatically at checkout based on your student's location with no set up needed.

Can my international students pay in their local currency?

Yes. With adaptive pricing, your students automatically see your course price converted into their local currency at checkout. Your price stays exactly as you set it, students just see it in a way that makes sense for them, without any setup required on your end.

What happens if a student's subscription payment fails?

Stripe's retry logic automatically attempts to recover failed subscription payments before you even notice. Students receive an automatic notification, and Stripe retries the transaction using smart timing logic — meaning you lose fewer subscribers to card errors without lifting a finger.

How quickly can I access my earnings?

With instant payouts, your earnings can be in your bank account within minutes of a sale. You can also choose daily, weekly, or monthly payout schedules depending on what works best for your business.

Can I add offers at checkout to increase my revenue?

Yes. Teachable Payments supports up to 10 order bumps per checkout — relevant add-ons presented at the moment of purchase with a single click. No extra pages, no extra friction, just more value per transaction.

How does Teachable Payments handle payouts to collaborators and affiliates?

Revenue splits are calculated and distributed automatically to every party — school owner, co-instructors, and affiliates. Tax form collection for collaborators receiving payouts is also handled automatically, so you're not chasing W-9s or managing 1099s manually at year end.

Is my checkout optimized for mobile?

Yes. Teachable Payments is fully optimized for mobile, with dynamic payment methods, adaptive pricing, and a streamlined checkout experience built for any device. Students can complete a purchase in one tap with Apple Pay or Google Pay — no card entry needed.
