Skillspad
What it is
Skillspad is a web and API platform for creators selling courses, coaching, communities, and digital products. Listed offerings include ebooks, templates, services, webinars, playbooks, and systems. After payment clears, buyers receive digital products automatically, while files and videos are restricted to paying customers. Checkout uses Paystack and accepts MTN Mobile Money, Vodafone Cash, AirtelTigo Money, Visa, Mastercard, and bank transfer. Creators can request payouts to mobile money or bank accounts; GHS payouts typically arrive within 24–48 hours. Each payout costs GHS 1 to mobile money or GHS 8 to a bank account. Every plan includes an affiliate program with creator-set commissions and tracking for links, clicks, and conversions. Listed integrations include Google Meet, Drive, Sheets, Calendar, YouTube, and Forms. Richy, the AI advisor, suggests 3–5 product ideas with Cedi prices based on profession and audience. Starter costs nothing with a 10% platform fee. Growth starts at 230 GHS a month, and there is no free trial.
