How to Sell Courses Alongside Memberships and More! – LifterLMS 1.4.1

Say Hello to LifterLMS 1.4.1

After working with LifterLMS for a while, people often comment on how powerful LifterLMS is as an eCommerce-for-online-courses and membership site tool.
LifterLMS gives you a lot of power right out of the box with one time and recurring payments for courses and memberships.
You can sell a course by itself.
You can sell a course only through a membership that contains it.
Courses and memberships can have one-time single pricing and/or recurring pricing.
You can even offer a course at a price on it’s own AND through one or multiple membership levels that contain it.
In LifterLMS version 1.4.1, you now have even more control over how your prospective learner experiences that path to join a course or gain access to it through a membership.

The video below shows the new options you now have to control pricing messages and what the enrollment buttons say based on the course and/or membership options you have selected:

Do You Have a Love/Hate Relationship with PayPal?

I do.
I’ve grown a lot with PayPal over the years.
There are things I love … like having them handle international transactions 24 hours per day worldwide.
There are things I don’t love … like their complex admin panel. I like options, but sometimes especially in my early web days, PayPal was difficult for me to navigate and figure out as a beginner.
At LifterLMS, we want your PayPal experience to be as easy as possible, that’s why with LifterLMS 1.4.1 we gave you:

  • Optional debug mode so you get error messages from PayPal that can tell you what’s not right with your setup
  • PayPal error messages that your customer will see if their transaction has issues so you can better help them pay you
  • A resolution to a checkout issue where no default price was selected at checkout when only recurring payment option existed
