Billing & Payouts
This guide covers how money reaches your organization, what the platform charges, and how invoicing works.
Connect Stripe for payouts
Payments for your organization's bookings and cohorts are collected into the organization's own Stripe account, and Stripe pays out to your bank. You connect this once.
- 01Go to Dashboard → Organization → Settings and start the Stripe connection.
- 02Complete Stripe's onboarding (business details, bank account) and return to Matheia.
- 03When Stripe reports the account can accept charges and payouts, you're ready.
- 04You can now publish cohorts and collect payment for bookings.
Commission
The platform takes a commission on each payment it facilitates, deducted automatically at the time of charge — you receive the remainder. The Payments page shows it per payment and totals it for the month beside what came in, so the figure is always in front of you. The rate that applies to your organization is shown in your settings, and Premium removes it. Because the fee is a percentage, it works the same in every currency you accept.
Invoicing & VAT
Matheia can issue invoices to students on your behalf through the connected invoicing provider, using the organization's billing details and VAT rate. Invoices are issued in the currency each student paid in, and refunds produce a matching credit note. Setting your VAT rate correctly — and handling cross-border VAT for foreign students — is the organization's responsibility; the platform applies the rate you configure.
The organization subscription
Your teaching-tutor seats are billed as an organization subscription. Manage it in Settings: add seats as your team grows (effective immediately) or schedule a reduction for the end of the current period. The subscription is separate from the per-lesson payments students make — that money flows to your Stripe account; the subscription is what you pay the platform for running the team.
