Sell Your Course. Keep Every Dollar.
Subscriptions, installments, secure file delivery, license keys, AWS S3, and embeddable checkout — built in. No Teachable, no Thinkific, no monthly platform fee eating your margin.
How do you want to sell your course?
Monthly access, annual plans, or pay-in-3. Your choice.
Sell courses with recurring monthly or annual subscriptions, one-time purchase with lifetime access, or installment plans that split the full price across 3–12 payments. Renewal pricing rules let you offer a discounted renewal rate to keep students subscribed.
Course files delivered securely. Large videos hosted on S3.
Deliver workbooks, resource packs, and templates as secure downloads with count limits and expiry. Large video libraries sit on AWS S3 — StoreEngine generates a time-limited signed URL per download request, so direct links can never be shared or scraped.
License key per enrollment. Sell from anywhere with Embeddable Checkout.
Issue a license key with every course enrollment — useful for software bundles or community access tools included with the course. Embeddable Checkout puts a full StoreEngine checkout on any external page, so you can sell directly from your landing page, newsletter, or social bio link.
AI writes the course listing. Abandoned cart brings students back.
WordPress-native AI generates your course title, sales description, module summaries, and image alt text in one click. Abandoned cart recovery fires an automated email sequence when a prospective student leaves checkout without enrolling — your highest-intent leads, recovered automatically.

Common Questions
Does StoreEngine replace a full LMS like Teachable?
StoreEngine handles the commerce side — selling, subscriptions, installments, file delivery, and access control. For a full learning experience with video lessons, progress bars, quizzes, and certificates, pair it with Academy LMS, Kodezen’s dedicated WordPress LMS. Together they cover the complete course selling stack.
Can students pay in installments?
Yes. StoreEngine’s installment plan feature lets you split the course price across 3, 6, or 12 monthly payments. The student gets full access immediately on the first payment. If a payment fails, access is gated until the missed payment is resolved.
How do I host large course videos?
Connect your own AWS S3 bucket in StoreEngine settings. Upload videos to S3 and link them to your course products. StoreEngine generates a signed, time-limited URL per access request — students get a link that works for a short window, making it impossible to scrape or share permanent file URLs.
Can I sell my course from a landing page that isn’t my WordPress site?
Yes. Embeddable Checkout is a cross-origin SDK — drop a script tag on any external page and a full StoreEngine checkout renders inline. Works on ad landing pages, Notion, Substack, partner blogs, or any page where you can embed a script. Payment processes through your store.
What happens to access when a subscription lapses?
Access is gated automatically. If a subscription billing cycle fails or a student cancels, the download links and license keys tied to that subscription are deactivated. When they renew, access restores immediately without admin involvement.
Does StoreEngine charge a fee per course sale?
No. StoreEngine charges 0% transaction fees on all sales, always. You pay a one-time or annual fee for the Pro plugin, but every dollar a student pays goes directly to your payment gateway account — StoreEngine never takes a cut.
