UNI Learn offers multiple ways for mentors to earn incomeβ€”through mentorship sessions and Learning Project sales.

1. Payout Schedule & Methods

  • Payout Window – You can withdraw your available balance between the 15th and 25th of each month.

  • Payment Method – Payouts are processed through PayPal (other methods may be added in the future).

  • Processing Time – Transfers are typically completed within a few business days, depending on your payment provider.


2. Commission Model

A. Mentorship Sessions

Commission rates are tiered based on your monthly gross income from online sessions:

$700

$1,500+

20%

πŸ’‘ Special Rates – UNI admins may offer select mentors custom commission rates under specific conditions.

Trial Lessons – Commission rate is 100% (mentors are not paid for these sessions). Earnings are reinvested in marketing, platform development, and maintenance.


B. Learning Project Sales

  • A flat 30% platform commission applies to all project sales.

  • Earnings from project sales are added to your account balance and follow the same withdrawal schedule as session earnings.


3. Fees & Currency

  • Withdrawal Fee – 1% applies to all withdrawals.

  • Currency Conversion – Third-party payment providers may charge additional fees (typically ~2%) for currency exchange.

  • USD Transactions – All UNI Learn payments are processed in USD.


4. Initial Deposit & Penalties

  • Deposit Hold – The first $20 you earn is held as a deposit.

  • Late or Missed Lessons – If you are over 10 minutes late or miss a class without notice, $5 will be deducted from your deposit and paid to the learner.

  • Depleted Deposit – If your deposit balance reaches $0, another $20 will be held once your total balance exceeds $20. If the deposit is $0, your profile will be hidden from new learners for one month (you can still teach existing students).


5. Payment Release Process

  • Learners confirm lessons after completion.

  • If they do not confirm:

    • A reminder email is sent after 24 hours.

    • The system auto-confirms after 72 hours if no disputes are reported.

  • Mentors are paid only after confirmation or auto-confirmation.


6. Tax Responsibilities

  • UNI Learn does not withhold taxes.

  • You are responsible for reporting and paying taxes according to the laws in your country of residence and any other applicable jurisdictions.

  • We recommend consulting a certified tax professional to ensure compliance.


πŸ’‘ Tip: To maximize your visibility and earnings, keep your calendar updated, maintain punctuality, and publish Learning Projects alongside your mentorship sessions.
