Guided setup

From purchase to live — step by step.

Follow this checklist in order. Each step links to a plain-English help article. Nothing here is technical guesswork: you're walked through every part.

Start at step 1

Your setup checklist

Work top to bottom. You can pause and come back any time; your progress is saved to your account.

  1. Claim your account

    When you bought your kit, an account was created for you automatically by email: no sign-up form to fill in. Claim it with a magic link (or set a password / sign in with Google).

    Already entitled: claiming your account unlocks the customer knowledge base straight away.

  2. We set the hosting up

    Nothing to do here — your deck is hosted, backed up and kept up to date by us as part of the monthly plan, so there is no hosting account for you to open or manage. The help article explains what runs where, and how to export your content and customer data whenever you want it.

  3. Point your domain

    Have your own web address (yourname.com) point at your new site. The article shows the exact records to add, with screenshots for the common registrars.

    If you don't have a domain yet, the article covers buying one too.

  4. Deploy your kit

    Publish your site files to your hosting. The article walks through the one-time setup so that future updates publish automatically.

  5. Connect your own Stripe

    Add your own Stripe key so payments go straight to your bank. You stay in full control of payouts, refunds and your customer data. We never sit in the money flow.

    Decided: customers bring their own Stripe (their key → their bank). Pair this with the API-keys help article so you know exactly where to find your key.

  6. Create your first course, product or event

    Add something to sell or teach: build a course with modules and lessons, set up a product with a price, or (when bookings land) create an event. Set a cover image so it shows as a tidy tile.

    Events and bookings (Gather) are live — they come with the Bookings & Events and Gold editions.

  7. Go live + invite your people

    Do a final check, switch Stripe out of test mode, and share your site. Post a welcome in your community area and you're open for business.

    Test thoroughly in test mode first: no real card can be charged until you switch over.

Where to get help along the way

Every step above links into the knowledge base: your private, login-only help library.

  • The knowledge base

    Plain-English how-to articles for setup, selling, teaching, community and billing. It lives in your account and opens once you've claimed it.

  • Refunds + recurring

    Articles cover how refunds work (straight through your Stripe) and how to run a weekly-paid, drip-fed multi-week course.

  • Your community area

    Each course has a private group feed: think a focused WhatsApp group for your students. No DMs, threads or noise; just your class.
