PayFacile

What PayFacile is

PayFacile is a European platform for selling subscriptions, memberships, online courses, digital files, coaching and services from one branded page. The homepage headline reads "Subscriptions, memberships, courses. Sell it all from one page.", and the product is built around a checkout and a billing engine rather than around a classroom: recurring billing, member access and invoicing are the three things it promises up front. The footer carries the line "Made in" with the EU flag.

For a course creator, PayFacile is the shop and the payment system around a course. The homepage card for courses reads "Lessons, modules, progress tracking. Per unit or bundle.", so a creator can sell lessons or modules individually or package them, and learners see their progress. The company's guide to selling a first course argues that a beginner does not need a full LMS at all: "Solid content, a payment page, and a launch strategy are enough." PayFacile supplies the payment page, the delivery and the invoicing.

The homepage counts 4,000+ businesses, 38 countries with multi-currency selling, a 0 to 2% commission and "2 min to get started". The businesses it names as users range from coaches, creators, consultants and trainers to therapists, photographers, agencies, associations and restaurants, and the solutions menu has dedicated pages for course creators, coaches, consultants, therapists, associations and small businesses.

Selling a course with PayFacile

The guide on the company blog walks through the setup. The creator creates the product, sets the price and options, and shares a single link. No website is needed: the guide suggests sharing the link on LinkedIn, in emails, or embedding it on an existing site. The guide's checklist for the technical side is a payment page with the course description, card payment through Stripe and/or SEPA through GoCardless, an installment option for courses over €200, and automatic invoicing on each payment. For a catalog model, the creator sets up a recurring product, and "Students pay monthly and access all courses as long as they're subscribed."

On the sales page itself, the guide's advice is that it "must answer three questions in 30 seconds": who the course is for, what the learner will learn, and how much it costs.

PDFs, templates and other files sold with or alongside a course go out automatically. The guide says digital product delivery is built in and "the file is sent automatically on purchase confirmation", and the homepage describes digital products as "Delivered in one click, protected." For bigger downloads, a separate product type handles large files, updates and secure delivery links.

The pricing engine

PayFacile calls its pricing engine "The real differentiator": "Where others impose a single price, you compose the exact offer: subscription, membership, trial, metered usage, tiers, installments, and any combination of them. No dev, no plugins." The homepage explains each option:

• Free trial: the engine handles the trial period and converts it automatically to a paid subscription. The demo shows a 14-day free trial that becomes €19 a month.
• Usage-based pricing: metered billing that tracks consumption and invoices each unit, shown with AI credits at €0.02 per credit.
• Tiered pricing: several price tiers on one product, illustrated with a private community at Discovery €0, Pro €9 and VIP €29.
• Installments: one amount spread across several payments, shown with a full training at €297.
• Open pricing: the buyer sets the amount above a configurable floor, as with an ebook "from 5 €".
• Multi-currency and promotions: discount codes, flash prices and currency conversion in one checkout, with euros, dollars and pounds and automatic VAT.

For course creators, those options cover the common models: a single course with a payment plan, a membership with tiers, a subscription to a whole catalog with a trial, or a pay-what-you-want starter product.

Memberships, coaching and services

Beyond courses, the same account sells subscriptions and communities with recurring access, tiers and a reserved member space. Subscriptions come with tiers, trials and automatic retry. Coaching and bookings cover sessions and appointment booking with payment before the call. Services and invoicing cover quotes, deposits and automatic recurring billing, and the homepage promises "Compliant invoices in two clicks." The navigation also lists a website builder, payment links, e-commerce and a content hub.

Branding and payouts

Each creator gets a branded page. The homepage puts it as "Your branding, your domain, your style", and shows example storefronts on payfacile.com subdomains for a coaching studio, a creative studio with a €12 monthly subscription, and a coach offering a strategy audit on custom quote. A creator building a store gets "Your storefront and payment, on a single page."

Money goes straight to the creator. Under the heading "Your subscriptions. Your account.", the homepage says there is "No marketplace taking a cut of every subscription and freezing your funds" and that membership payments go directly to the creator's own account. PayFacile's own charge is stated as "0–2 % transparent, on your own account."

Trial and support

New users start with a 14-day trial with no commitment, and the homepage invites them to make a first sale "before your next coffee." Help comes through an expert rather than a bot: the site has a "Talk to an expert" link marked "Not a chatbot." and a form to request a callback as soon as possible or the next morning or afternoon. The resources menu lists guides, video tutorials, documentation, a changelog, a security page, a data sovereignty page and a page on AI features.

Who it suits

PayFacile suits a creator or small business that already has content and an audience and wants to sell courses, memberships and downloads with flexible pricing, low commission and invoices handled, without building a full course site. Coaches who combine a course with paid sessions, trainers who invoice clients with quotes and deposits, and associations collecting recurring memberships all fit the model.

It is a selling and billing platform first. The course card describes lessons, modules and progress tracking, and the company's own guide suggests outside hosting such as Vimeo, unlisted YouTube or Google Drive for course videos, and the same guide says a full LMS makes sense once a creator has "20+ courses, structured learning paths, and quizzes with certificates." Until then, PayFacile's case is that a payment page, delivery and invoicing are what a first course needs.
