What a commission would have cost you.
Enter the month you actually teach. We model the other platform on the lowest commission your hours would qualify for, not the higher rate most tutors start on.

that a commission would have taken
A commission marketplace would leave you $1,476 a month. The same month on Ximly is $1,800. Over twelve months the difference is $3,888.
Test Ximly while it is free. Here is the trade.
Free is not charity and it is not a hook. We are early, we need tutors who will tell us the truth, and this is what each side puts in.
You get
- The whole platform. Not a trial, not a limited plan: everything, the same as everyone else.
- No commission on either payment method. The only deduction anywhere is Stripe's processing fee on protected checkout, and that goes to Stripe, not to us.
- No card on file, no trial countdown, no subscription to choose or cancel.
- If you decide to leave, your students and your data go with you.
We ask
- Tell us what's broken, slow, or annoying. Bluntly. That's the price.
- Let us see how you actually teach, so we build for that instead of guessing.
- Put up with the rough edges. We are early, and plenty of things still need work.
- Help us work out what this should cost, before we charge anyone for it.
You test the platform. We are the ones on trial.
Will Ximly stay free forever? Probably not.
You deserve a direct answer rather than a dodge. Every lesson taught costs us money, and at some point that has to be covered. Here is what actually costs us, and what we are currently considering.
Payment processing
Every protected checkout carries a processing fee. Today that fee is Stripe's, and Stripe charges it.
Live video
HD classroom time, whiteboard sync, and recording storage are billed to us for every hour taught.
Everything around it
Servers, backups, support, and the people building what you are using.
What we are considering
One credit = one hour of lesson. A fixed price, not a percentage of your work.
Today Ximly counts it this way: a lesson of up to an hour uses one credit, in both work modes, and every new tutor starts with 1000. A fixed hourly price is the only model we like, because it does not penalize you for charging more or teaching more.
Nothing about pricing after early access is decided, no date is set, and none of this is a commitment. Any change will appear on this page before it applies. Early tutors help us work out what it should cost, which is the fourth item in the trade above.
Two work modes. You choose once.
When you set up your tutor account, you choose Ximly Classroom or Ximly Classroom + Finances, and the choice is permanent. Your students see one of three settlement labels on each lesson, and Ximly takes nothing from any of them.
Ximly Classroom + Finances
Card payment through Ximly, with protection
Students pay by card, BLIK, Apple Pay, or Google Pay inside Ximly. The money goes straight to your bank account.
- Ximly's cut: $0.
- Stripe deducts its own processing fee from each payment, and that fee goes to Stripe.
- Payouts reach your bank account automatically.
- Payment protection for you and your student.
Ximly Classroom + Finances
Direct settlement, recorded in Ximly
Cash after the lesson or a bank transfer, exactly as you work today. Ximly does not handle the payment, it only records what is owed.
- Ximly's cut: $0.
- No processing fee either, from anyone.
- Ximly records what is owed and sends reminders automatically.
- No platform protection: it is between you and your student.
Ximly Classroom
Direct settlement, outside Ximly
You agree the price and the payment directly with your student. Ximly does not handle payments and does not know your lesson prices.
- Ximly's cut: $0.
- Lessons, students, materials, and the after-lesson checklist, all without a single price in Ximly.
- No platform protection: payment and any refund happen outside Ximly.
For students
You pay your tutor. That is the entire bill.
There is no booking fee, no platform charge, and no recording fee. Where a tutor's price is shown in Ximly, it is the price you pay, and none of it comes to us.
Nothing goes to Ximly
Finding a tutor, booking lessons, and joining the classroom carry no platform charge.
No booking fee
Where a tutor's price is shown in Ximly, that is the price you pay. Nothing is added on top.
No recording fee
Lesson recordings protect you if something goes wrong, and they cost you nothing.
The rest of it.
Is Ximly really free right now?
Yes: no subscription and no commission. Every new tutor gets 1000 hosting credits to start, and credits are charged for lesson time, in both work modes, at a fixed price per credit. Ximly takes no cut of what a student pays their tutor.
So what happens when early access ends?
We do not know the exact answer yet, and we would rather say that than invent one. What we can tell you is that any change will be announced on this page before it happens, and nothing will start charging you without your agreement first.
Does Stripe charge anything?
Yes, on protected checkout only. Stripe deducts its standard processing fee from each payment before the money reaches your bank account, and that fee is Stripe's rather than ours. Cash and bank transfers carry no fee at all, from anyone.
What is the difference between Ximly Classroom and Ximly Classroom + Finances?
Ximly Classroom gives you lessons, students, materials, and the after-lesson checklist, while Ximly does not handle payments and does not know your lesson prices: you and your student settle outside Ximly. In Ximly Classroom + Finances we process payments and know lesson prices. As the platform operator we collect the data DAC7 requires and will pass it to the Polish National Revenue Administration once a year. Before we do, we will tell you what is being reported.
Can I change my work mode later?
No, the choice is permanent. You choose your work mode once, when you set up your tutor account.
Do I need to buy hosting credits?
Not to start. Every new tutor gets 1000 hosting credits. A lesson of up to an hour uses one credit, and each additional started 15-minute block uses a quarter of one, in both work modes. When you need more, you buy them in packages, each at a fixed price per credit, with no subscription.
Why is tutor sign-up invite-only?
Because we can only work closely with a small group at a time, and that is the point of early access. Students can join without an invite.
Will I be charged automatically later?
No. There is no card on file and no subscription to renew. Credits are only ever bought through a checkout you start yourself, so nothing can start billing you silently.
What do I actually get?
Everything in the work mode you choose. Ximly Classroom gives you the HD classroom and whiteboard, scheduling with Google Calendar sync, chat, materials, per-student workspaces, the after-lesson checklist, and your marketplace profile. Ximly Classroom + Finances adds payments, lesson prices, and payment documents. There is no paid tier.
A better way to learn and teach.
