Checklist for Migrating to MemberVault from Teachable

Switching platforms? Here's a list of important elements to keep track of!

If you're transitioning from Teachable to MemberVault, this checklist will walk you through the elements you’ll want to move, rebuild, or reconnect before sharing your new account with subscribers and buyers.

1. Add Your Logo

Upload your logo inside your MemberVault account to match your branding.

2. Add Your Brand Colors

Set your brand colors so your account reflects your existing business identity.

3. Set Up Your Welcome Area

Customize your Welcome Area to guide members once they log in. This can replace your Teachable school homepage.

4. Update Your Footer

Add your business information, links, and policies to your account footer.

5. Connect Your Email Service Provider

Integrate your email platform (Kit, ActiveCampaign, etc.) so you can automate tagging and product access.

6. Connect Stripe and/or PayPal (If Applicable)

If you’re selling paid offers, connect your payment processor. We have direct integrations with Stripe and PayPal.

If you have members in Teachable who are paying with payment plans or subscriptions, their subscriptions will continue to run via Stripe or PayPal (depending on what you have set up). You don't need to have them cancel and restart a subscription in MV since this is all handled via the payment processor.

Note, you won't see Sales Data in your MV dashboard for the subscriptions you've transferred over, unless someone cancels and then subscribes again in your MV account.

7. Copy & Paste Your Products (Courses, Programs, Bundles)

Products cannot be automatically transferred from Teachable and will need to be recreated in MemberVault.

For each product:

  • Create a new Product in MemberVault

  • Rebuild your module/lesson structure

  • Copy & Paste Lesson Content (including text, images, embedded media, file downloads)

While MemberVault does have an in-house video player you can use, we highly recommend embedding your videos into your products with a tool like Vimeo, muse.ai etc for optimal member viewing experience.

This can be a great opportunity to refresh or streamline your content!

8. Migrate Your Members

You can move your existing members over in one of two ways:

Option A: CSV Import

  • Export your users from Teachable using a CSV File

  • Import them into MemberVault via Members → Import in the left side admin dashboard menu.

  • Grant access to your products during the import to save time (if you need to manage multiple product access, then you'll either want to upload multiple CSVs or use Option B below).

Option B: Through Your Email Platform
If your members already exist in your email system, you can trigger product access in MemberVault using a webhook or Zapier to do so.

9. Test Your Purchase & Login Flow

Before announcing the move:

  • Complete a test purchase (if paid)

  • Confirm access is granted properly

  • Test the login process

  • Review your content on desktop and mobile
