Four ways to sell, plus sale prices
All on every plan, in the same Studio as your courses and groups, so a paid order opens access straight away. Mix them: a course on its own, inside a membership, or in a bundle.
- One itemA course, a program or a paid group, for a one-time price. Access lasts for life, or for a number of days you choose, and you can let members buy it again when it ends.
- Monthly and annual membershipsMembers pay every month or every year, and can move up or down a plan. Each higher plan includes the cheaper ones.
- BundlesSeveral courses or groups sold together, for one price you set.
- "All courses" offersAll courses, all groups or all premium posts. Anything you add later is included automatically.
- Free next to paidFree groups and free preview lessons sit next to the paid ones, so people can look before they buy.
- Sale pricesA lower price on any product, shown next to the usual one.

Price it while you build it
When you make a paid course or group in Studio, it asks how members pay first. It can't go live without a price, so members never land on something they can't buy.
- Start from a goal. Studio's dashboard offers "Sell a course", "Run a paid membership" and "Sell a bundle", each with its steps.
- Pick a subscription or a one-time price, and add more ways to pay later from Pricing.
- Connect Stripe once, in Settings, under Payments, with your details and a bank account. Sales go straight to your Stripe account.
How should members pay for Photo Basics?
You can add more ways to pay later from Pricing.

Already selling somewhere else?
Your paying members keep what they paid for. Here's what moves, what you rebuild, and what happens at a subscriber's next renewal.
- From WordPress or BuddyBossOur team runs our importer. Members come across with their profiles and the access they paid for, for life or until their paid period ends.Courses you set up again in Studio from a folder of videos, one lesson per file.How the move works
- From Circle, Kajabi, Mighty Networks or SkoolYou invite members by email. For what they already bought, use Give access in Studio, so nobody pays for it twice.People who bought a course for life keep it for life, with no end date.
- Subscribers, at their next renewalThey keep the access their old plan covered until their paid period ends. Then they subscribe here through Stripe checkout.You stop the old subscription before that date, so nobody pays twice. We help you plan the timing and the announcement.

Faizan, founder and technical leadQuestions owners ask about selling
I already have paying members. What happens to them?
They keep what they paid for. Subscribers keep the access their old plan covered until their paid period ends, then subscribe on TribeCrafter at renewal. People who bought a course for life keep it for life: Give access in Studio adds it with no end date. The details for each platform are in Already selling somewhere else? above.
Can my Stripe subscribers move over without entering their card again?
They enter their card once, when they subscribe here at their next renewal. Until then they keep the access they paid for. We help you plan the announcement and the date.
How does a member cancel a plan?
From their account, which opens Stripe's billing page, where they can change or cancel. A cancelled plan runs to the end of the period they paid for.
What does Stripe charge?
Stripe's standard card rate for your country, listed on Stripe's pricing page. TribeCrafter adds no fee on top.
Do I need my own Stripe account?
Yes, one made for this community. Connect it in Studio's Settings, under Payments, with your details and a bank account. Never used Stripe? The founder helps you set it up.
How do taxes work?
Set your prices with tax included. Every order is in Studio and in your Stripe account for your records.
Can I sell a paid workshop?
Yes. Make a paid group for the workshop and sell it for a one-time price, with access for, say, 14 days. Post the call link and the recording in it.
Which currencies can I sell in?
Your community sells in one currency you pick. If yours isn't on the list, ask us: payments run on Stripe, so we can add any currency Stripe supports.
Can I give someone access without them paying?
Yes. In Studio, use Give access to add a paid group or course to a member, with no payment.
Can I sell the same course on its own and inside a plan?
Yes. Sell it for a one-time price, and include it in a plan or an "all courses" offer at the same time. How courses work.
