Course Management
Configure how courses are automatically managed in your organization.
Auto-Unpublish Expired Courses
When enabled, courses are automatically removed from catalogs (Publications/Series) once all their credits have expired. This feature runs daily at 12:03 AM and only unpublishes courses where all active credits with expiration dates have passed. Credits without expiration dates are considered non-expiring.
INFO
Existing registrations for expired courses are not affected. Learners who have already registered can still access the course and claim their credits. Only the course visibility in catalogs is changed.
TIP
This setting is enabled by default for all organizations to help keep catalogs clean and current. You can disable it if you prefer to manually manage course visibility.
Payment Methods
Manage saved credit and debit cards for paying orders. Your card details are securely handled by Stripe and are never stored on LecturePanda servers.
To access Payment Methods, navigate to Organization Settings > Payment Methods. You will need the ORDERS or ACCOUNT_SETTINGS permission to see this section.
Viewing Your Saved Cards
The Payment Methods screen displays a table of all your saved cards, including:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Card | The card brand (Visa, Mastercard, etc.) and the last four digits of the card number. |
| Expiration | The card's expiration date. Expired cards are shown with a red "Expired" label and cannot be used for payment. |
| Status | Shows a blue "Default" label if the card is set as your default payment method. |
| Actions | Options to set a card as your default or remove it from your account. |
Adding a New Card
- Click the green Add New Card button.
- Enter your card details in the secure card form provided by Stripe.
- Click Save Card to save the payment method to your account.
- You will be redirected back to the Payment Methods list with a confirmation message.
Setting a Default Payment Method
Click the Set as Default button next to any saved card. The default card will be automatically selected when you pay for an order, saving you time on future purchases.
Removing a Saved Card
- Click the red Remove button next to the card you want to delete.
- A confirmation dialog will appear asking you to confirm the removal.
- Click Confirm to permanently remove the card, or Cancel to keep it.
Using Saved Cards During Order Payment
When paying for an order, your saved payment methods are displayed automatically. Your default card is pre-selected. You can:
- Select any of your saved cards to pay with.
- Choose Enter new card details to pay with a card that is not saved.
- Check the Save this card for future purchases checkbox when entering new card details to add the card to your saved payment methods.
INFO
Expired cards are visible in the list but cannot be selected for payment. If your only saved card has expired, you will need to enter new card details or add a new card in the Payment Methods section.
Participant Bank Auto-Refill
Automatically purchase additional participant seats when your bank falls below a set threshold. This feature requires a saved payment method on your account.
Auto-refill keeps your participant bank topped up without manual intervention. When the number of remaining participants drops below your configured threshold, LecturePanda automatically charges your saved payment method and adds the purchased seats to your bank.
Requirements
Before enabling auto-refill, you must have a saved payment method (credit or debit card) on your account. You can add one in Organization Settings > Payment Methods.
Configuring Auto-Refill
These settings are found on the Subscription & Billing page (the landing page of Organization Settings), under the Participant Bank section.
Low Participant Threshold
Receive weekly alerts when your bank drops below this number. Auto-refill will also trigger when participants fall below this value.
Auto-Refill Participant Bank
When checked, LecturePanda will automatically purchase participants on your behalf when the bank falls below the threshold. Requires a saved payment method.
Auto-Refill Quantity
The number of participant seats to purchase in each automatic top-up. Must be a valid participant amount (a multiple of 50, up to 18,200). Pricing follows the standard participant bank rate.
How It Works
- LecturePanda checks your account daily.
- If remaining participants are below your threshold, a purchase is automatically initiated for the configured quantity.
- Your saved default payment method is charged.
- On success, the participants are added immediately and you receive a confirmation email with an invoice attached.
- On failure, auto-refill is automatically disabled and you receive an email with the reason for the failure. You will need to re-enable it after resolving the issue with your payment method.
TIP
Set your auto-refill quantity to a number that comfortably covers your typical registration volume so you are not topped up too frequently.
Subscription
View and manage your organization's subscription status and billing preferences. This page is available to account owners with ACCOUNT_SETTINGS permissions.
Subscription management is available on the Subscription & Billing page, which is the landing page of Organization Settings.
Current Status
Your subscription status is displayed as a color-coded label at the top of the page. The possible statuses are:
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Pro (Active) | Your Pro subscription is active and will automatically renew at the end of the billing period. |
| Pro (Non-Renewing) | Your Pro subscription is still active but will not automatically renew. You can re-enable auto-renewal at any time before the billing period ends. |
| Trial | You are currently on a free trial. You can activate a paid Pro subscription when you are ready. |
| Inactive | Your subscription has expired. You can reactivate a Pro subscription to restore full access. |
| Waived | Your subscription fees have been waived. You can convert to a paid Pro subscription if needed. |
| Pro (Suspended) | Your account is suspended due to an overdue payment. Pay your outstanding invoice to restore your subscription. |
| Pro (Non-Renewing, Suspended) | Your account is suspended and auto-renewal was previously disabled. Pay your outstanding invoice to restore access. |
| Enterprise (Active) | Your Enterprise subscription is managed by LecturePanda. Contact support for any changes. |
| Affiliate | Your Affiliate account is managed by LecturePanda. Contact support for any changes. |
Managing Your Subscription
Depending on your current status, you will see different actions available on the subscription card:
Activating a Pro Subscription
If your account is in Trial, Inactive, or Waived status, you will see a Click to Activate Pro Subscription label on the subscription card. Clicking it will:
- Show a confirmation dialog with the annual subscription price.
- After you confirm, an invoice will be generated and you will be redirected to the Invoices page to complete payment.
INFO
If no pricing information is available, the activation label will be disabled. Contact support@lecturepanda.com to set up your subscription.
Disabling Auto-Renewal
If your subscription is Pro (Active), you will see a green Auto-Renewal Enabled — Click to Disable label on the subscription card. Clicking it will:
- Show a confirmation dialog explaining that your subscription will remain active until the end of the current billing period but will not automatically renew.
- After you confirm, your status will change to Pro (Non-Renewing).
Re-Enabling Auto-Renewal
If your subscription is Pro (Non-Renewing), you will see an orange Auto-Renewal Disabled — Click to Re-Enable label on the subscription card. Clicking it will:
- Show a confirmation dialog confirming that your subscription will automatically renew at the end of the billing period.
- After you confirm, your status will change back to Pro (Active).
Suspended Accounts
If your account is suspended, you will see a warning label with a link to the Invoices page where you can pay your outstanding invoice to restore your subscription.
Enterprise and Affiliate Accounts
If your account is on an Enterprise or Affiliate plan, the subscription card will display your current status as read-only. To make changes to these plan types, contact support@lecturepanda.com.
Subscription Auto-Renewal
LecturePanda subscriptions renew annually. If you have a saved payment method on your account, your subscription will be renewed automatically when it expires.
Auto-Renewal Behavior
- With a saved payment method: Your default card is automatically charged at renewal. You will receive a confirmation email with an invoice attached.
- Without a saved payment method: A renewal invoice is emailed to you and payment must be submitted manually via the link in the invoice email.
When Auto-Renewal Fails
If the automatic charge fails (for example, the card is declined or has expired):
- A renewal order is created in your account with a status of Unpaid.
- Auto-renewal is disabled on your account.
- You receive an email explaining the reason for the failure and providing a link to pay the invoice manually.
- If the invoice remains unpaid, your account will eventually be suspended.
To re-enable auto-renewal after a payment failure, resolve the issue with your payment method and contact support, or re-enable it through your account settings once a valid payment method is in place.
INFO
You will receive a reminder email approximately 30 days before your subscription is due to renew.
TIP
The Subscription & Billing page remains accessible even when your account is suspended, so you can always view your status and navigate to the Invoices page to make a payment.
Marketplace
Set up your Marketplace to allow other LecturePanda users to list your lecture on their Publications.
