Selling courses with Finqu
Note: You can use Finqu to sell online courses, but Finqu doesn't include features for running online courses.
Technically, selling a course is not much different from selling a regular product. The main difference is that courses aren't delivered physically, so the customer doesn't need to choose a shipping method at checkout.
If you sell courses in Finqu, we recommend using the Digital products feature. It has the following benefits:
You can attach a file to a digital product, such as a PDF or a video, which is sent to the customer automatically. This way you can give course participants instructions or other preparatory material right after the purchase.
When you sell digital products, no shipping method selection is shown at checkout, which makes the purchase smoother.
You'll find instructions for adding digital products in our help center: Digital products
Limiting the number of participants
For courses held in person, you often need to limit the number of participants, since you can't sell an unlimited number of places. You can do this by setting a stock quantity for the product. When there are no products (= places) left, the course can no longer be purchased.
If the same course is held on different dates, you can create a separate product for each date. That way you can add details about the date and time to, for example, the product name or description.
Kajabi online course platform
The international Kajabi online course platform is also used to some extent in Finland. The challenge has been the availability of payment methods, as Kajabi doesn't offer Finnish online bank payments.
With Finqu and the Zapier service, which you can connect to Finqu, you can also accept online bank payments in Kajabi. You can read an example case on our blog (in Finnish) ➡️ Verkkofyssari brought online bank payments to Kajabi with Finqu.
We're happy to tell you more if you're interested in using Finqu together with Kajabi. Just send us a message using the chat at the bottom right, and we'll see how we can help.
