You don't need an expensive course platform to sell what you know. Telegram already has your audience, and a private channel makes a perfectly good course — lessons, videos, PDFs, and a place for questions. Here's how to run it.
Put the course in a private channel (or a channel per module). Release everything at once for a self-paced course, or drip lessons on a schedule to keep people engaged and reduce refunds.
Courses usually sell as a one-time payment. If you keep adding lessons or run a live cohort with ongoing Q&A, a subscription can make more sense — weigh it in subscription vs one-time payments. You can also sell it as a one-off digital product alongside a monthly community.
When someone pays, MemberBot gives them a single-use invite to the course channel automatically — and removes them if you sell time-limited access. No manual adding, no shared links.
The course is the product; the community is the recurring revenue. Offer a paid discussion group or coaching tier on top, so students who want more can pay for ongoing access after the course.
Yes. A private channel holds your lessons, videos and files, and a bot handles payment and access automatically — cheaper and simpler than an LMS, and your students are already on Telegram.
Most courses sell as a one-time payment. Choose a subscription if you keep adding content or run ongoing cohorts. You can also pair a one-off course with a monthly community.
The bot issues a single-use invite to the course channel the moment they pay, and can remove them when time-limited access ends.
