Why payments & instalments matters

Most coaches and trainers start with a payment link and a spreadsheet. It works until the third person asks to pay in four parts, a corporate buyer wants an invoice, and someone in Ontario asks whether the price includes HST.

Here the payment is part of the offer. You choose how an offer is sold, the buyer pays through your gateway, and access, receipts and the client record follow from the same order.

How accept payments for courses and coaching works

  1. 1

    Connect your account

    Add your own gateway in Settings, Payments. Credentials are stored encrypted, tested before they are saved, and every change is written to an audit log.

  2. 2

    Shape the offer

    Mark a course, programme, session package or product as one-time, subscription or instalments. Add a coupon, an order bump or a post-purchase upsell where it helps the buyer.

  3. 3

    Take the payment

    The buyer pays on your own host with your colours. Tax lines come from the rates you set for your workspace.

  4. 4

    Deliver and reconcile

    Access opens from the order. Orders, refunds and invoices stay on the same contact, so you can see who paid what and when.

Your gateway, your money

Each workspace connects its own payment account. Gbeya charges a 0% platform fee on your sales; your payment processor still charges its own fees.

Instalments that match the offer

Offer a programme in a set number of payments at a set interval, so a larger commitment is easier to say yes to.

Built for Canadian sellers

Charge in Canadian dollars by connecting Helcim, and start from provincial GST, HST, PST and QST presets that you can edit when a rate changes.

Why Gbeya

Gbeya never sits between you and your buyer: payments go to the account you connect, in your own currency, and the order, the access and the invoice are one record.

Which payment methods and currencies a buyer sees depends on the gateway you connect. Gbeya does not give tax advice: the Canadian tax presets are a starting point that you own and can change.
