How tracking works on Teachable
clickt installs two small snippets, each with one job:
- Click tracking goes site-wide. It reads the tracked link a viewer arrived on, watches your opt-in forms, and counts views.
- Sale tracking goes on your thank-you page only. When that page loads after a purchase, the sale is recorded. Nothing is guessed from the URL: the snippet running on the confirmation page is the signal.
Both snippets are generated for you in the dashboard, already filled in with your workspace and sales page. You copy and paste them, you do not edit them.
1. Set your price
Open Channels → your channel → Sales pages, add your Teachable page, and enter
its price and currency. Revenue is that price times the sales clickt records.
Where Teachable exposes the real order amount, the sale snippet reads it and your
set price is the fallback.
2. Paste the click-tracking snippet
Teachable allows custom code in Site → Settings → Code Snippets → Head. Paste
the click-tracking snippet there. It runs on every page of your school.
Custom code is available on Teachable's paid plans. On a lower tier the snippet cannot run, so connect on a plan that allows custom HTML.
3. Paste the sale-tracking snippet
Teachable keeps custom code off the checkout itself, so sale tracking goes in the dedicated post-purchase code field for the product you are selling. The wizard shows the exact field for your setup and generates the snippet with your sales page already attached. If you sell several products, repeat this for each one.
4. Confirm it
Click tracking confirms straight away. Open Channels → your channel → Sales pages, pick the page, and run Test it. The dashboard sends a test view to your
page and tells you which step is off if anything is.
Sale tracking can only confirm on a real purchase, because the thank-you page is only reached after one. The page shows a "waiting for your first sale" state until then. There is no synthetic test sale.
What you'll see
Per video in your back catalog:
- Clicks from YouTube to your Teachable page
- Signups linked back from any opt-in form on your funnel
- Sales and revenue per video
- Sales per view, the fair comparator across long and short videos
- Time from watch to purchase
Usually a few videos carry most of the revenue per view. That is the point: make more like those, fewer of the rest.
