Creating a gated course provides you with complete control over who accesses your course while offering multiple access method for your specific needs.
​
These gateway options are:

Below you can find the learner experience for each access method. To configure these access methods for your course, please refer to the links above for detailed instructions on each option.

When a learner reaches your course, they are presented with an authentication form where they provide their name and email address.
​

Our system immediately sends a verification code to the email address provided. Learners must enter this code on the screen they are redirected to after submitting their email.

Once the code is validated, the learner is granted immediate access to the course.
​

This process typically takes just a few minutes and does not require any payment or special authorization from you as the course creator.

The payment gateway turns your course into a premium product, allowing you to generate revenue while ensuring that only committed learners gain access.
​

When a learner visits your course, they begin by providing their email address, just like in the double opt-in method. However, instead of receiving a verification code, they receive a personalized payment link via email.

By clicking the payment link, learners are redirected to a payment screen where they can complete their purchase using their preferred payment method. Once the payment is successful, learners receive immediate access to the course content.

​

If a paying learner loses access by switching browsers or devices, they can verify their payment status by requesting an access code on the interface. This ensures that legitimate paying customers never lose access to the content they have purchased.

To give access to your learners using this method, you need to add the learner’s email address to your learner list, either manually or by importing a CSV file.
​

Once the email address has been added, simply click the “Send Email” button in the admin interface. This will prompt the system to send a personalized email with a magic link directly to the specified learner.

If the learner loses access by switching browsers or devices, they can request an access code when trying to access the course. This ensures that your designated learners never lose access to the content.

No, unauthorized access to your gated course is prevented through several security measures built by Mini Course Generator. All access methods contains single-use authentication tokens cannot be reused.

Verification codes, payment links and magic links are uniquely generated for each specific email address and automatically expire after one use.

This means that even if someone were to obtain an access link or code, it would only work once for the intended recipient and cannot be used by anyone else.
