At Sailer Business Solutions, we provide accounts payable services tailored for online education platforms so you can run a smooth, scalable business while focusing on your students.
Why Education Platforms Need AP Support
Whether you offer on-demand courses, live cohorts, or certification programs, your business likely works with:
- Independent instructors or guest speakers
- Video editors, course designers, and copywriters
- Affiliates and commission-based partners
- LMS tools like Kajabi, Teachable, Thinkific, or LearnWorlds
- Ad platforms, CRM software, and automation tools
Without a centralized AP system, your team can lose track of payments, overspend on subscriptions, or fall behind on 1099 compliance.
That’s where we help.
Our Accounts Payable Services for Online Learning Businesses
We manage your outgoing payments with precision and professionalism. Our services include:
- Invoice Capture & Entry: We receive and record all vendor, instructor, and contractor invoices — accurately categorized by course or program.
- Approval Workflows: Set up easy-to-use approval rules so no payments are made without the right sign-off.
- Bill Pay Management: We schedule, track, and process payments to keep you current and your vendors happy.
- Contractor & Instructor Payments: Track recurring and one-time payments to instructors and partners, ensuring accurate 1099 tracking.
- Affiliate & Commission Management: Monitor and pay affiliate commissions with clean documentation and compliance support.
- Subscription Oversight: We track your recurring software charges and flag duplicates or unused tools.
- Reporting by Program or Channel: Break down AP by course, department, or marketing channel for better decision-making.
Designed for the Platforms You Use
We support the tools you already rely on — Kajabi, Teachable, Podia, Thinkific, LearnDash, Zoom, ConvertKit, and more — and integrate directly with accounting systems like QuickBooks Online or Xero.
We can tag expenses to specific courses or products, giving you insight into profitability and resource allocation at a granular level.
