Choose the Right Pricing Model for Your TeachClub School
When publishing your school, one of the most important decisions you'll make is how students pay for access.
TeachClub lets you offer your school as a one-time purchase, a monthly subscription, or an annual subscription. Each option is designed for a different type of learning experience and business model.
The best choice depends on the type of content you teach and how you want to grow your school.
One-Time Payment
With a one-time payment, students pay once and receive access to your school without recurring charges.
This works well for schools that have a clear beginning and end, such as:
Skill-based courses
Exam preparation
Workshops
Tutorials
Certifications
Students know exactly what they're paying for, making this a simple option for standalone educational content.
To choose this option: Go to Admin, then click Monetization from the left menu bar and set the billing interval to One time.
Monthly Subscription
A monthly subscription gives students ongoing access while their subscription remains active.
This model is ideal for schools that continue to grow with:
New lessons
Regular updates
Live sessions
Ongoing coaching
Communities
Fresh resources
Subscriptions create recurring revenue while encouraging students to stay engaged over time.
To choose this option: Go to Admin, then click Monetization from the left menu bar and set the billing interval to Monthly.
Annual Subscription
An annual subscription works like a monthly subscription, but students pay for an entire year upfront.
This option is ideal if you want to:
Reward long-term commitment
Reduce monthly cancellations
Improve revenue predictability
Offer a discounted yearly price
Many creators provide a lower effective monthly cost to encourage annual enrollments.
To choose this option: Go to Admin, then click Monetization from the left menu bar and set the billing interval to Annual.
Which Option Is Best?
There's no single "best" pricing model—it depends on your school.
Choose One-Time if your school is designed to be completed once.
Choose Monthly if you're continually adding value and want recurring income.
Choose Annual if you want to build long-term memberships while giving students a better overall price.
You can always update your pricing strategy later as your TeachClub school evolves and your audience grows.
