Class Payments Through Tipalti

Registering for Tipalti as a First-time Teacher

If you’re teaching on Skillshare for the first time you will need to register with Tipalti so you can earn payments from us.

  1. Log in to Skillshare with your teaching credentials and navigate to Creator Hub.
  2. In the left-hand menu, select Payment.
  3. On the Class Payment tab, select Payment Settings.
  4. Enter the required information on each form and click Next to save it and move to the next screen.

All four forms — Address, Payment Method, Tax Forms, and Documents — should be correctly and completely filled out. You can confirm that your information was successfully captured when all of the steps in the checklist at the top of the Payment Settings screen are colored blue. You will also receive an email from Tipalti confirming that registration is complete.

For questions about registering with Tipalti or to report technical issues with the registration process, reach out to Tipalti directly using this request form. Be sure to use the email address associated with your Skillshare teaching account and reference Skillshare Teachers in the description. 

Edit Your Tipalti Payment Settings

You can make changes to your payment settings by following the steps below. We recommend that you update your payment settings before the 1st of the month to ensure your subsequent payment goes through correctly.

  1. Follow the instructions for registering for a Tipalti account above to access your Payment Settings.

  2. Scroll down to the bottom and use the Next button to advance to the form that you need to change. Use the Back button to go back to a previous form.

  3. With the correct form visible, click the Edit button.
  4. Make your changes in the form as you need. When you have finished making changes, click Next to confirm your changes.

If you need to address incorrect information associated with your Tipalti account, please reach out to teach@skillshare.com.

View Tipalti Payment History

Skillshare sends teacher payments on or around the 16th of every month. Your Payments History page displays all teacher payments paid to date for 2022 (prior years are not shown).

  1. Log in to Skillshare with your teaching credentials and navigate to Creator Hub.
  2. In the left-hand menu, select Payment.
  3. On the Class Payment tab, select Payment History.

For each payment you should see the date it was sent (Approval date), the amount submitted, and by what method — click on the arrow to review further details for each payment.

The status column indicates whether the payment has been Submitted (on its way to you) or Paid (already in your account!). A status message other than Submitted or Paid indicates that we weren’t able to send the payment to you. Please ensure that your Tipalti account settings are correct and reach out to teach@skillshare.com for further assistance.
