AI Clone:
How Payments Work

You stay in complete control of your business and your money. Kolby handles the AI Clone infrastructure in the background.

Your Stripe. Your pricing. Your customers.
Stripe Connect automatically sends Kolby's 20% share when a student purchases your AI Clone.

Getting Started

Set up payments once.
Then run your business.

Your Stripe account remains yours. You control the day-to-day decisions. Stripe Connect handles Kolby's revenue share automatically.

01

Create Your Stripe Account

Create your own Stripe account and connect it to your business bank account.

This is your Stripe account. You control it.

02

Set Up Stripe Connect

Inside your Stripe account, set up Stripe Connect and connect Kolby.

This connection allows Stripe to automatically send Kolby its 20% share when a student purchases your AI Clone.

Kolby will confirm that the connection is working correctly before your AI Clone begins accepting student payments.

03

Create Your AI Clone Offer

Create your AI Clone product inside your Stripe account. You decide how you want to sell it.

Your Price
Monthly Billing
Annual Billing
Payment Links
Promo Codes
Special Offers

Change your pricing, promotions, or offers whenever you want.

When A Student Buys

The payment happens automatically.

Your student purchases through your Stripe checkout. Stripe handles the payment split and Kolby receives the purchase notification.

04

Your Student Purchases

Your student uses your payment link and purchases access to your AI Clone.

The payment goes through your Stripe account.

05

Stripe Connect Pays Kolby

Stripe Connect automatically sends 20% of the student payment to Kolby.

The remaining 80% stays with you.

Example Student Purchase
Student pays $200
You keep $160
Stripe Connect sends Kolby $40

There is no monthly revenue-share check to write and no separate 20% revenue-share invoice to pay.

06

Kolby Is Notified

When the payment is completed, Kolby's system receives the purchase notification.

We receive the information needed to identify:

Who Purchased
Which Coach
What They Purchased
Amount Charged
Payment Status
Student Account

Once the purchase is confirmed, the student's AI Clone access can be activated immediately.

Usage & COGS

Kolby tracks the operating costs.

As students use your AI Clone, operating costs are created. Kolby tracks those costs for you throughout the month.

07

Kolby Tracks COGS

COGS are the actual operating costs generated by your students while they use your AI Clone.

These may include AI usage, calling, transcription, and other services required to operate your Clone.

You do not need to calculate this yourself.

08

COGS Are Settled Monthly

At the end of each month, Kolby totals the COGS generated by your students.

You are responsible for 80% of those costs. Kolby absorbs the remaining 20%.

Example Monthly COGS
Total COGS $1,000
Your share — 80% $800
Kolby's share — 20% $200

Kolby invoices you for $800.

Refunds & Cancellations

You control your customers.

Because your students purchase through your Stripe account, you also control refund decisions.

01

Refund the Student

Process the customer's refund through your own Stripe account.

02

Notify Kolby

Send Kolby the cancellation so we know the student should no longer have access.

03

Access Is Removed

Kolby removes the student's AI Clone access so they do not continue generating usage costs.

Refund reconciliation: If Kolby previously received 20% of a payment that you later refunded, Kolby's portion of that refund is owed back to you. Refunds are reconciled so both sides have a clear record of what is owed.
