# Monetizing Your Spaces/Courses with Paymattic

In **FluentCommunity**, you can create, share, and even monetize spaces/courses. This guide will walk you through monetizing your spaces/courses within **FluentCommunity** using **Paymattic**.

## Monetize Space with Paymattic

To monetize your Space, you need to complete a few steps to set up the desired Space in FluentCommunity.  

Follow the steps with screenshots below to learn the process of setting up Space – 

### Create or Edit a Space

First, you need to open the desired space you want to monetize. You can start the process by creating a new Space in FluentCommunity or using an existing one.

For example, I opened an existing Space to show you the whole process. To learn the detailed guide on Space creation, check out this [documentation](https://fluentcommunity.co/docs/how-to-create-a-space/) here.

### Set Space Privacy to Private

Once you are on the desired space you wish to monetize, click the **Three-dot** button in the top right corner and select the **Space Settings** option.

Now set the Space **Privacy** to **Private** and select **Custom Lock Screen**. The **Custom Lock Screen**will only be visible when the privacy setting is set to Private. 

After setting the Space to private, click on the **Lock Screen** option at the top menu.

## Collect Paymattic Form URL to add in Space/Course

You can monetize your Space/Course easily using the Payment Form created through the Paymattic plugin. To learn the whole process, follow the steps below accordingly –  

### Integrate Paymattic with FluentCommunity

At first, you need to integrate Paymattic with your FluentCommunity. Integrating [Paymattic](https://paymattic.com/) with [FluentCommunity](https://fluentcommunity.co/) allows you to collect payments and add members to the **Premium** (paid) **Spaces** and **Courses** of FluentCommunity directly through Paymattic Forms.

> To learn the detailed guideline of Integrating Paymattic with FluentCommunity, read this [documentation](https://fluentcommunity.co/docs/paymattic-integration-with-fluentcommunity/).

### Add Desired Space/Course in Paymattic Form

At this stage, you need to add the desired Space or Course into any Paymattic Form to monetize them. 

> But, remember, you need to add the Space/Course into the Payment Form to collect the money. To learn how to create a Payment Form, read this [documentation](https://paymattic.com/docs/how-to-create-your-first-payment-form-in-a-minute-and-accept-payments-with-paymattic/).

For example, I chose an existing payment form to show you the process.

![](https://fluentcommunity.co/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/8.-Open-desired-Payamttic-Form-scaled.webp)

Once you are on the **Editor** page of your desired form, go to the **Integrations** tab, open the **Add New Integration** dropdown list, and select the **FluentCommunity Integration**option.

![](https://fluentcommunity.co/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/9.-Adding-Fluent-Community-Integration--scaled.webp)

Now, a pop-up page will appear with various settings options for configuring FluentCommunity.

**All the settings options mentioned in the screenshot below are briefly explained:**

**A. Name**: Here, you can set a name according to your preference for your feed

**B. Select Spaces or Courses to Enroll**: Here, you can select your desired or all Space/s and Course/s to set where your users will add as members/students immediately after form submission. For example, I selected a Space (Developer Space) and a Course (Advanced Course on Programming).

**C. Email Address**: In this field, you need to select the **Email Address**.

**D. Full Name (Only for new users)**: Here, use the {input.customer_name} shortcode by clicking the **ShortCode Icon**.

**E. Password (Only for new users)**: Here, you can set a fixed password for every new user. Or, you can keep it empty to automatically generate a new password for each user.

**F. Allow the user login automatically after Form submission**: Enable this option and your user will be directly logged into your Paymattic User Dashboard after submitting the form.

**G. Send default WordPress welcome email to a user after registration**: Enable this option to send a welcome email notification to your users with login details including a password reset option.

**H. Join/Enroll space/course on payment success only**: Check this option if you want your users to Join/Enroll in a Space/Course only when the payment is successful. If you keep it unchecked, users can get access to the space/course without payment succeed.

I. **Remove from space/course if payment refunded**: Checking this option will allow you to remove users automatically from space/course if payment is refunded.

**J. Remove from space/course if subscription canceled**: Checking this option will allow you to remove users automatically from space/course if they cancel their subscription.

**K. Enable conditional logic**: Enable this toggle if you want to set any conditions on this form submission. To learn the details of the use of this Conditional Logic, read this [Documentation](https://paymattic.com/docs/how-to-use-conditional-logic-in-form-fields-with-paymattic/). Plus, to get access to this feature, you need the [Paymattic Pro Plugin](https://paymattic.com/docs/how-to-install-and-activate-paymattic-in-wordpress/#1-toc-title). 

Once you set up the page, click the **Create Fluent Community Feed** button and the feed will be added.

Now you will see that your **FluentCommunity Integration Feed**has been added here.

You can modify your **FluentCommunity Feed** anytime by clicking the**Pencil Icon** and delete it from here by clicking the **Trash Icon**. Also, you can **disable/enable** this feed anytime by clicking the **Toggle** button if needed.

### Publish Your Paymattic Form

Then, **paste the shortcode** to the desired**Page/Post**where you want to display your Payment Form. 

Plus, use this “**[wppayform_dashboard]”** shortcode to add the **Paymattic User Dashboard** to your form. This will allow the users who access the FluentCommunity **Spaces/Courses** through Paymattic Form to see a dedicated section called "**Spaces & Courses**" in their user dashboard. 

> To learn the detailed guideline about **Paymattic User Dashboard**with **FluentCommunity**, [read this](https://fluentcommunity.co/docs/paymattic-integration-with-fluentcommunity/#4-toc-title).
