Zero Monthly Fees

Sell Courses Without Paying Monthly Fees

Why pay $50-$200/month when you could pay $0?

Most course platforms charge you before you make a single sale. iLoquio doesn't. No monthly fees, no annual subscriptions, no surprises. You only pay a small 5% commission when you actually earn money.

The Hidden Cost of Monthly Fees

Monthly fees seem small, but they add up fast—and they don't stop when your sales do.

Teachable charges $59-$159/month regardless of your sales
Kajabi costs $149-$399/month even during your slow months
Thinkific's paid plans start at $49/month before you sell anything
Annual plans lock you in—even if the platform doesn't work for you
Upgrading for features means paying more every single month
The pressure to 'earn back' your monthly fee creates stress

We only make money when you do. No fees until you sell.

$0 Monthly Cost

Only 5% When You Sell

Sell a $100 course? We take $10. Sell nothing this month? You pay nothing. Our success is tied to yours.

No Feature Gates

Predictable Costs

Your cost is always 5% of revenue. Easy to budget, easy to plan, easy to understand.

Why Monthly Fees Are Bad for Course Creators

The Psychology of Monthly Fees

Monthly fees create a subtle but constant pressure. Every month, before you've made a single sale, you're already in the red. You owe the platform money regardless of your results.

This pressure can lead to poor decisions: rushing to launch before you're ready, pricing courses too low to drive quick sales, or burning out trying to 'make back' your monthly fee. It's exhausting, and it's unnecessary.

How Platforms Justify Monthly Fees

Platforms charging monthly fees argue they need predictable revenue to maintain infrastructure. That's true, but it puts the risk on you, the creator. If the platform doesn't deliver value, you still pay. If your course doesn't sell, you still pay. If you take a break, you still pay.

At iLoquio, we flip this model. Our revenue only comes when your revenue comes. We're incentivized to help you sell, not just to keep you subscribed.

The Math of Monthly vs. Commission

Let's say you sell $5,000 worth of courses in a year.

On a platform charging $99/month, you pay $1,188 in fees—that's 23.8% of your revenue.

On iLoquio at 5% commission, you pay $500—exactly 5% of your revenue.

The break-even point is around $11,880 in annual sales. Below that, iLoquio saves you money. And even above that threshold, you had a free runway to get there.

What You Get Without Monthly Fees

Some creators worry that 'free' means limited. Not at iLoquio. Every creator gets:

• Unlimited course hosting • HD video streaming • Built-in video calls for live sessions • Student management and analytics • Stripe payments in 135+ currencies • Custom branding • Mobile-responsive course player • Email notifications

There are no locked features, no 'upgrade to Pro' messages, no artificial limits.
