Is church and faith community fundraising with education right for you?

It works best for ministry leaders, youth leaders and church administrators. The core skill you need is organisation and trust. You do not need a large audience or upfront money to begin — you need consistency and a genuine reason for people to listen to you.

Add a referral code to your plan

Wherever you already help people — a study group, a congregation, a team chat or your social profile — an Erudex referral code lets you earn while recommending something useful. Create an account, open your dashboard and copy your code and link. Share it with a short personal message about why the course helps.

Earnings are tracked automatically for every paid purchase that uses your code, and you can see your referrals and earnings on your dashboard.

Realistic expectations

Income from referrals and side work varies widely. A few friends buying a course earns a small amount; an active community of learners can earn more over time. Nobody can guarantee a specific income, and you should be cautious of anyone who does.

Stay safe and ethical

Keep records of earnings and how they are used.

Be honest with the people you refer, disclose that you earn a commission, and never pressure anyone to buy.
