Services · Ecommerce development · Education course enrollment sites
Codeeo provides education course selling website development in the USA for online schools, career training companies, certification and exam prep providers, continuing education businesses, tutoring networks and course creators. We build the catalog, checkout, recurring and installment billing, cohort scheduling and the paid learner portal, designed for buyers in all fifty states, so your platform handles sales tax, renewal laws and accessibility once, centrally, instead of state by state as complaints arrive.
Selling courses nationally is mostly a rules problem. Price display, renewals, tax, privacy, child data and school licensing each vary by state, and the platform needs to know where each learner is and apply the right rule at the right step. We design that logic first, then the screens learners see.

Platform capabilities
A course company that started with one city or one instructor usually grows into a national audience before its website catches up. Checkout written for one state, a renewal flow nobody reviewed, tax switched off because the first sales were small, and a learner list split across three tools: these are the patterns we replace.
We build an education online course platform where location is a first class field. The learner's state is captured at checkout and used to calculate tax, show the right disclosures, apply the right renewal terms and route any licensing notice. Course data, prices, policies and access rules live in one place your team controls. The result is a platform that can add a new state, a new course line or a new in person location in another metro without rebuilding the checkout each time.
Since the Wayfair decision in 2018, states can require remote sellers to collect sales tax once they pass economic thresholds, and states disagree on whether online courses, recordings and printed materials are taxable. We connect a tax engine that calculates by product type and address, and keep exempt buyers such as some institutions on file.
Tax collected correctly wherever learners buy, with records your accountant can file from.
The federal Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act still requires clear terms, express consent and simple cancellation for recurring charges, and many states add their own automatic renewal laws. We build the strictest common pattern: terms beside the pay button, stored consent, reminders and an online cancel option in every account.
One subscription flow that holds up across states.
Cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay, ACH for higher tuition, buy now pay later providers, in house installment plans and employer invoicing, all through PCI DSS compliant processors that keep card data off your servers. Failed payments retry on a schedule and notify the learner before access changes.
More ways to pay, less manual collection work.
Live classes are scheduled in one reference time zone and shown to each learner in their own, from Eastern to Hawaii. Cohorts can be split by region so evening sessions suit the West Coast and the East Coast separately. Calendar invites carry the right time automatically.
Fewer missed live sessions caused by time zone confusion.
Some states require private postsecondary or career schools to hold approval before enrolling their residents, and degree granting institutions may use state authorization reciprocity for distance education. The platform stores which programs may be sold in which states and blocks or flags enrollment where approval is missing.
Programs are only sold where your approvals allow.
For learners under 13, COPPA requires verifiable parental consent, and the FTC's amended rule tightened data retention and third party sharing. Several states now go further for teenagers. Parent accounts, minimal student profiles, no ad trackers on student pages and data retention schedules are built in when your courses reach minors.
Youth programs designed around consent from day one.
Schools, districts, employers and associations buy courses for groups. Partner accounts get negotiated prices, seat pools, invoices and completion reports. When you deliver courses for colleges, FERPA obligations may apply to student records you receive, and access controls are set accordingly.
Business to business revenue alongside individual sales.
Learners get one account for lessons, live links, assignments, certificates, receipts and plan management. Access is driven by payment status, course dates and partner seat assignments. If you use an existing LMS, enrollment syncs through standard integrations so learners sign in once.
A single place for learners to use everything they bought.
Course sites selling to the public face ADA Title III claims nationwide. We build to WCAG 2.1 AA, including the checkout, account and payment widgets, add captions and transcripts to sample lessons and test with screen readers before launch.
Learners with disabilities can buy and study without barriers.
Enrollment confirmations, class reminders and payment notices go by email and, with consent, by text. Marketing email follows CAN-SPAM rules for unsubscribe and sender identity, and text messages respect TCPA consent requirements, stored per learner with the date and wording agreed.
Reminders that reach learners without legal exposure.
Who we build for
Paid learning portal development at national scale is less about design flourishes and more about rules, data and operations. These four types of company make up most of our US education work. Each grows in a different direction, and the platform should be built for the direction you are heading, not just where you are now. Most companies sit mainly in one group with a product line in another, and the platform can serve both.
Companies offering certificate programs in fields such as medical billing, IT support, HVAC theory or bookkeeping to learners across the country. Their priorities are state approvals, enrollment agreements, installment billing and completion records. We build approval logic by state and program, and reporting that matches what regulators and partners request. As new states are approved, programs are switched on for those residents from the admin without a developer.
Licensing decisions stay with your compliance team.
Providers preparing learners for nursing, real estate, insurance, securities, accounting and IT certification exams. Learners buy fast, often near an exam date, and expect immediate access. Many states set their own prelicense or continuing education hour requirements, so we track hours by course and state and issue certificates that show them. Exam date reminders and access extensions can be sold as add ons at checkout.
Hour rules come from each licensing board you work with.
Online tutoring companies, coding clubs for kids and test prep networks serving families across many states. They need parent paid subscriptions, session packages, tutor scheduling and strong child privacy defaults. We put COPPA consent and state teen privacy rules at the center of the account design. Tutor payouts and session credits are tracked so finance can reconcile them each month.
Instructors who outgrew a hosted course tool and now have a team, multiple product lines and enough revenue to trigger sales tax in several states. They want to own the customer list, run memberships alongside cohorts, and stop paying platform fees on every sale. We migrate learners and content and keep their existing logins working where possible. Pricing pages, bundles and upgrade paths are rebuilt so the catalog reads as one business rather than a pile of products.
Migration planning protects existing subscribers.
How engagement works
Codeeo has delivered 200+ projects across the UAE and the US with a team of 80+ across Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, and holds a 4.7 rating from 23 Google reviews. US clients work with us remotely: discovery, design reviews, testing and training all run by video call, with written decisions and a shared board after every session. For national platforms we usually agree a staged release plan with you, so revenue keeps flowing on the old system until each part of the new one is proven. Your product, finance and compliance leads each join the reviews that concern them, and nothing goes live without their sign off.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
National course businesses usually need a headless setup: a Next.js storefront, a custom or extended enrollment and billing back end, a tax engine such as Avalara or Stripe Tax, a processor such as Stripe, and an LMS connected through standard integrations. Smaller catalogs can run well on WordPress or Shopify with the right extensions. We explain the tradeoffs in writing, including running costs, before you commit.

Cost follows the rules and integrations, not the number of pages.
The main drivers are how many states you sell into and how different their rules are for your products, the variety of pricing models such as one time, installments, subscriptions and partner seats, the tax engine and accounting connections, licensing logic by program and state, child privacy requirements, migration from an existing platform and the number of LMS or video tools involved. We itemize the estimate after discovery so you can stage the work and fund it in phases.
