Teachable Revenue Calculator
Teachable course earnings.
Calculate Teachable course net revenue from monthly student volume, course price, transaction fee percentage, and the cost of your plan tier.
What this tool does
This calculator models net monthly revenue from course sales on Teachable by starting with gross income (monthly students multiplied by average course price), then subtracting the platform fee and payment processing fee as percentages of that gross amount, and finally deducting the monthly plan cost. The result shows what remains after these standard deductions. The outcome is most sensitive to changes in student volume and course price, since these directly determine gross revenue before any fees apply. A typical scenario might involve a creator with 50 students per month selling a course at an average price, wanting to see what their take-home looks like after fees. The calculation assumes consistent monthly student numbers and pricing, and does not account for refunds, discounts, promotional pricing, taxation, or other business expenses beyond the platform and payment fees listed. This is an educational illustration of revenue flow mechanics.

Teachable charges per-plan fees: Basic plan 5% transaction fee + payment processing, Pro plan 0% transaction fee + processing only (119/month). Revenue model: students × course price minus fees and plan cost. At scale, Pro plan dominates because 5% transaction fee exceeds 119/month at ~2,400 monthly revenue.
50 students × 150 course = 7,500 gross. 5% Teachable fee 375 + 3% payment 225 = 600 fees. Net: 6,900/month. On Pro (119/month, 0% txn): 7,500 - 225 payment - 119 = 7,156. Pro saves 256/month at this volume. Break-even: ~2,400/month revenue.
Teachable vs Podia vs Kajabi: Teachable strongest marketing features (sales pages, funnels, affiliates). Podia simplest and cheapest for small creators. Kajabi most powerful all-in-one (website + email + courses) but most expensive. Choose based on marketing sophistication needs and revenue scale.
Quick example
With students monthly of 50 and avg course price of 150 (plus teachable fee of 5% and payment fee of 3%), the result is 6,900.00. Change any figure and watch the output shift — it's often more useful to see the pattern than to memorise the formula.
Which inputs matter most
You enter Students Monthly, Avg Course Price, Teachable Fee %, Payment Fee %, and Monthly Plan Cost. Not every input has equal weight. Adjusting one input at a time toward extreme values shows which ones move the result most.
What's happening under the hood
Gross = students × price. Fees = gross × (teachable + payment %). Net = gross - fees - plan. The formula is listed in full below. If the number looks off, you can retrace the calculation by hand — that's the point of showing the working.
What the score tells you
Headline financial numbers — income, savings, debt — each tell part of the story. This calculation stitches several together into a single read you can track over time. The value is in the direction, not the absolute number.
What this doesn't capture
The score is a composite of the inputs you provide. Life context — job security, family obligations, health, housing — doesn't appear in the math but shapes the real picture. Use the number as a prompt, not a verdict.
50 × ££150 - 5% - 3% - ££0 = 6,900.00.

Sources & Methodology
Methodology
The calculator computes monthly net revenue by starting with gross course sales, then deducting platform and payment processing fees, and finally subtracting the monthly subscription cost. Gross revenue is calculated by multiplying the number of students by the average course price. Total fees are applied as a combined percentage of gross revenue, reflecting both the platform commission and payment processor charges. The monthly plan cost is then subtracted as a fixed expense. The model assumes a constant student volume and course price each month, a flat fee structure that does not vary by transaction size, and that all students complete their purchase. It does not account for refunds, seasonal variation, discounting, payment failures, tax obligations, or changes in fee structures.
