Use one course, one price and one email to start. For a live Apresly checkout, this walkthrough uses a one-time PayU payment in PLN. If you want to try Stripe, use the separate Stripe test guide.

Prepare the purchase

  1. Publish your course. Open the first lesson in student view.
  2. Build your checkout. For example, set the regular price to PLN 199 and the offer price to PLN 149. Select the published course under After purchase.
  3. Create an Evergreen campaign with a five-day window. Choose the subscriber trigger and time zone. Publish the campaign and link it to the promotional price in checkout. Campaign setup

Check what the buyer sees

Open the published checkout and check the course name, currency and regular price. Then send the invitation to a group containing only your own subscribed address. Follow the personalized link from that message. You should see the offer price and the deadline for that subscriber.

A five-day window belongs to the reader. A Tuesday signup and a Thursday signup should have different closing dates. Compare two test subscribers before inviting the full list.

Send the invitation and find the order

Build the newsletter with the same campaign and checkout. Review the recipient group and send when ready. After a buyer pays, open Orders, find the purchase by buyer email and confirm the payment status and course access.
