How Teachable Works

First, you sign up and create a free school. Then you upload your videos, PDFs, and quizzes into lessons. After that, you set your price and publish the course. Teachable gives you a checkout page and handles the payments. So students can buy and start learning right away. Because the platform tracks each sale, you see your earnings on a clear dashboard. Once you pass the payout threshold, Teachable sends your money through PayPal or Stripe. Over time, you can add more courses and grow a full catalog.
