July Product Update: Mobile Pay on Teachable

What do you do in the middle of a blackout during a hot and humid summer in New York? While those few hours were truly inconvenient, the blackout showed us genuine moments of support, collaboration, and kindness. Thankfully, no one from the Teachable team was stuck on the subway, and we were all able to get home to enjoy AC on full blast while binging on Netflix. But that didn’t stop us from keep you, our creators, up and running. From mobile pay to Page Editor updates, here’s what’s new at Teachable for July 2019.

Apple Pay® & Google Pay™

Apple Pay & Google Pay is now available on all Teachable users on Teachable Payments or Monthly Payment Gateway. This new feature offers additional payment options to your students, especially making the mobile checkout process smoother and faster.

Did you know over 50% of Teachable course purchases happen on mobile? We’re excited to see how this can improve the student checkout experience on your Teachable school and boost your conversion rates.

If you already have Teachable Payments or Monthly Payment Gateway set up, mobile payment is already enabled for you. On custom gateway payments? Find out why you should make the switch to our gateways.

Additionally, we will also be recruiting users to test the new page editor, so we can smooth out any leftover bugs and find out what the best onboarding process for new users will be.

Additionally, our product and engineering team is also working on:
