Wix Bookings: About Monthly Pricing for Courses

Clients are charged based on where they are in your payment schedule. If your schedule runs from July through December and someone enrolls in September, they pay for September at checkout and continue with the remaining payments from October through December.

The payment collected at checkout covers the selected start month, then monthly billing begins the following month. The total number of payments includes the first payment made at checkout. For example, if a course runs for 6 months, the client makes 6 payments in total.

Yes. If you set your booking policy to allow participants to join after the course begins, clients can join after the course has started. They are only charged for the months remaining in your payment schedule, not for months that have already passed.

It is not possible to prorate the first payment automatically. Clients are charged the full monthly amount regardless of when they join during the month or when the course begins. If you want to reduce the first payment for late joiners or mid-month course starts, you can create a coupon and share it with clients to use at checkout.

Monthly pricing appears as a monthly rate, for example, $100/month. Clients pay according to the payment schedule you set, based on when they enroll.

Yes. By default, coupons are not applied to monthly subscriptions. When creating a coupon, select the Include subscriptions checkbox to allow it to apply to subscription payments.

When a client uses the coupon to purchase a monthly subscription, the discount is applied to each payment cycle. For example, for a 12-month subscription, the client receives the discount for all 12 monthly payments.

A grace period gives you time to resolve failed payments before a subscription is canceled. During this period, you can recover the payment by asking the client to update their payment method or by marking the payment as paid manually. If the payment isn’t resolved before the grace period ends, the subscription is canceled and cannot be reactivated. To continue participating in the course, the client must be removed from the course and re-enroll.

No. Monthly pricing is currently available only when clients register themselves through your site or the Members App. If you add a participant manually, the course price changes to a one-time payment based on the remaining installments in your payment schedule. You can then edit the price at checkout to any amount you choose.

Clients can cancel their enrollment only according to your booking policy and before the course starts. Canceling the enrollment also cancels the subscription automatically.

Once the course has started, clients can no longer cancel their enrollment or subscription on their own. If a client wants to cancel after the course begins, you can cancel it for them in your site's dashboard.
