Sell your courses from your WordPress site
The free Acatudy plugin turns your WordPress website into the shop window of your academy: visitors see your courses, compare plans, buy and sign up on your site, then continue to their classroom. Your website stays yours; classes, students and payments stay in Acatudy.
Start on the Free plan: it never expires and needs no credit card. Upgrade whenever you need more.
In short
The plugin adds pricing tables (10 designs), a course catalog, a Buy now button that opens a secure Stripe payment page of your academy, a student sign-up form and a Go to my classroom link with single sign-on. You connect it once with a key from your Acatudy panel. It is free, and it needs an Acatudy academy (there is a free plan).
What the plugin does
Pricing tables in 10 designs
Cards, Spotlight, Comparison, Minimal, Bold, Glass, Horizontal list, Tabs, Dark and Compact. They follow your colors, corner radius and typography, with the monthly / yearly switch, the recommended plan, sale prices and free trials.
Course catalog
Show your active courses as a grid, list, carousel or featured block. Each course can have its own page on your site with cover, description, syllabus, teachers and the plans that include it.
Buy now with Stripe
Buyers type their email and continue to a secure Stripe payment page of your academy. Payments go through your own Stripe account via Stripe Connect; the plugin never sees card details.
Student sign-up
A native form on your site: students create their account and get an email to set their password.
Single sign-on
Logged-in students click Go to my classroom and arrive signed in. It is off until you turn it on in Acatudy.
Blocks, shortcodes and widget
Blocks with a visual design picker, block patterns, shortcodes, a classic widget and a Classroom link for your menus.
How it connects to Acatudy
In your Acatudy panel, open Academy settings, then API tokens, and create a WordPress key. Paste it in the plugin's setup wizard and test the connection. Until you do, the plugin sends nothing to Acatudy.
Your courses and plans are read from your academy, so you edit them in one place. Course pages are synced every hour, and you can sync on demand. If your classroom cannot be reached, visitors never see errors.
The "Powered by Acatudy" badge
The badge depends on your Acatudy plan. The Free and Basic plans require it, and the plugin only shows it with your permission. On the Pro and Institutional plans it disappears on its own, and it comes back if you move to a lower plan.
Download the plugin
Free, with no license key. It works with block themes and classic themes, is responsive and accessible, and is available in English, Spanish, French and Italian.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need an Acatudy account?
Yes. The plugin shows and sells the courses and plans of your Acatudy academy, so it needs an academy and a connection key. There is a free plan, and the plugin itself is free.
How do payments work?
Students pay on a secure Stripe payment page of your academy. Your academy is connected to Stripe through Stripe Connect, so the money goes to your own Stripe account (minus the Acatudy platform fee, if your plan has one). Nothing is paid inside WordPress.
Why do I see "Powered by Acatudy"?
The Free and Basic plans require the badge. It is off until you allow it once in the setup wizard, and then it follows your plan: it disappears on Pro and Institutional.
Can the classroom use my own domain?
Yes, if your Acatudy plan includes a custom domain. The plugin reads the classroom address from your academy, so buttons, menu links and single sign-on follow the new domain without changes in WordPress.
How does single sign-on work?
When it is turned on in Acatudy, a logged-in student clicks Go to my classroom and lands in their classroom without typing their password. The first time, they confirm by email that the account is theirs.
Does it work with my theme?
It works with block themes and classic themes. It includes blocks, shortcodes and a classic widget, so you can place it on any page.
