Online Course Pricing Calculator (2025)

Use the calculator to:

  • Enter your audience size, expected conversion rate, and target revenue.

  • Add your delivery costs (tools, support, team, ads).

  • Get a recommended price range, estimated revenue, and profit margin.

How This Course Pricing Calculator Works

The calculator takes a simple, practical approach:

  • Inputs: audience size, expected conversions, costs, and desired revenue.

  • Baseline math: it checks your breakeven price based on costs and expected enrollments.

  • Suggested band: it then suggests a price range that aims for sustainable profit, not just “cover costs.”

You can run different scenarios:

  • “What if I raise the price by 20%?”

  • “What if my conversion rate is lower than I expect?”

  • “What if I sell fewer seats but add a payment plan?”
