Paying over time

Payment plans and financing

Hands-on classes will be offered with payment plans or third-party financing, so you don't have to pay for a class all at once.

  • Payment plans spread the cost of a class over time. The details are shown when you book.
  • Third-party financing: Owner: name the financing provider once chosen With third-party financing you apply with the lender, and the lender sets the approval, the rate and the repayment terms.
  • The Epoxy Playbook is already a monthly membership.

Before you finance anything, compare the total you'll repay with paying up front, read the interest rate and any fees, and check what happens if you pay early or miss a payment.

Refunds and cancellations, in short

Every paid program has written terms, shown before you pay. The refund policy has them in full.

Questions

Tuition and financing: frequently asked questions

More in the full FAQ.

Can I pay for a class over time?

Hands-on classes will be offered with payment plans or third-party financing.

What is the refund policy?

The membership, the consultation and hands-on classes each have written cancellation and refund terms, shown before you pay and collected on the refund policy page.

Are there costs besides tuition?

Plan for travel, lodging and time off work if the class isn’t local. The bigger costs come after class, when you set up the business: equipment, insurance and your first materials, which the startup cost calculator adds up.

How does the Playbook membership work?

It’s a monthly membership: recorded lessons you can watch any time, on your own schedule. Enrollment opens to the founding list first; the details are shared when it opens.
