In its mission to offer engaging, interactive eLearning to the world, Growth Engineering has teamed up with Stripe – a simple, secure payment processing system – to allow organisations to take payments directly through their Academy LMS platforms.

The Stripe system is used by some of the world’s biggest websites, including Twitter, the Guardian and Salesforce. It is optimised to work on mobile and any other device that learners might be using, making it accessible to all.

Integrating with Stripe means that learners’ card details are remembered, but kept entirely secure – meaning neither Growth Engineering nor the organisation utilising the platform will suffer any security issues – and, unlike with PayPal payment systems, learners don’t even need to leave the comfort of the Academy LMS in order to pay.

In addition to selling any kind of content on the Academy LMS (including eLearning, videos, downloadable documents, classroom/website events, etc), Academy Admins are also able to offer learners eLearning ‘bundles’. This means that whole training courses comprising numerous materials can be packaged up and sold as one unit, ensuring that learners gain access to everything they need to succeed.

With a simple refund procedure and over 100 different currencies (including Bitcoin) supported, the Academy LMS’s eCommerce functionality adds another string its bow and cements its position as the #1 Learning Management System in the world, as ranked by eLearning expert and CEO of E-Learning 24/7, Craig Weiss, in his yearly review of over 600 Learning Management Systems.

Juliette Denny, Managing Director of Growth Engineering, said: “The eCommerce integration with Stripe makes it really simple for learners to purchase eLearning courses and gain instant access. It’s great for learners, since they can get the training they want when they want it, but it also makes it easier for organisations to recoup costs. We're really excited about it and our clients are champing at the bit to activate it on their Academies."
