What you get
Half of every sale, with none of the admin.
You bring the course. We run the shop, take the payments and look after the learners.
Getting paid
Sent to you automatically, every month
Paid by bank transfer in GBP. Balances under £50.00 carry over to the following month.
Earnings
Work out what a course could earn you.
Enter a price and an estimate of monthly sales. The split is worked out by the same code that calculates your real earnings.
The sales tax and card fees used here are illustrative; your statement uses the real figures Stripe reports. The 50% share and the order of the deductions are exact.

Eligibility
What you need to list.
The bar is your content, not your size. Established training companies and independent trainers apply through the same route.
Course content ready to go
Your lessons and assessment questions, ready to add to the partner portal. We review every course before it goes on sale.
A named awarding body
Every course on Echo3 names the body that accredits or certifies it, and the regulator it is written for, so buyers know exactly what they are getting.
The right to sell it
You own the content, or you hold a licence that lets you sell it. We ask about this when we check your application.
What does it cost to list a course?
Nothing upfront. There is no listing fee and no membership fee. You receive 50% of the net revenue when a sale happens, and pay nothing when one does not.
When do I get paid?
Every month, without you having to ask. On the 1st of every month we total your share of every sale that is at least 30 days old (that covers the refund window) and pay it by bank transfer in GBP. Balances under £50.00 carry over to the next month, and you can ask for a payout early at any time.
What does net revenue mean?
What the learner paid, less the sales tax collected at checkout and the card processing fee. You receive 50% of that amount.
Who sets the price?
You propose it and we agree it with you. Price affects how your course sits against the rest of the catalogue, so it is a conversation rather than a slider.
Does my course need to be accredited?
Every course on Echo3 names an awarding or certifying body and the regulator it is written for. Tell us what yours carries when you apply and we will check it.
Can I still sell the same course on my own site?
Yes. Listing on Echo3 is not exclusive.
Who handles refunds and learner questions?
We do. Anything about the content of the course itself comes to you, so you are not answering password resets.
