Memberships with monthly or annual billing

Billing intervals: 30, 90, 180 or 365 days.
A renewal extends everything the membership includes — the courses and the community, not just the membership itself.
3 days' grace after a renewal date before access closes.
Cancel anytime — access stays until the end of the paid period, and the member's progress is kept if they rejoin.

Memberships work on both payment accounts. On Stripe a membership bills in US dollars and renews automatically until the member cancels; on Razorpay (India) it bills in rupees. Either way, canceling keeps access until the end of the period already paid for.

A rupee membership is charged on your own Razorpay account, so it needs your Razorpay API keys saved under Payouts. An academy connected only through Razorpay sign-in, or with no payment account yet, cannot sell one. Buy your membership once yourself, and watch a renewal go through, before you launch it.

What a tier can unlock

Each membership tier can grant access to a curated set of courses, a community/cohort space, recurring 1:1 office hours, or any combination — so you can run anything from a 'all my courses' subscription to a premium inner-circle. Higher tiers simply unlock more.

Renewals and failed payments

Renewals bill automatically on the interval you set. Your payment processor retries a failed renewal on its own schedule; while it does, the member sees a notice in their account asking them to update their payment details, and access stays on for 3 days past the renewal date. If the renewal still has not gone through, the included courses and community close until it does.
