We just rolled out a much-needed upgrade to how monetization works in Pickaxe (and it’s a big one).

You can now **lock individual tools _and_ entire folders directly inside your portal**. This gives you way more control over what users can access and what they need to unlock

### What’s new (and why it matters)

- You can **lock a single tool** and sell access to just that

- You can **lock a full folder** , so users pay to unlock a bundle

- You can now **attach offers directly through your portal**

- Users can preview content and upgrade, or instantly unlock via offers

This might sound simple, but it removes a lot of friction. Earlier, selling even one tool felt clunky. Now it’s finally straightforward.

### How to set it up

1. Go to **Edit Portal**

2. Click on the **Lock** tab (as shown above)

3. Select the tool or folder you want to lock

4. Choose:

That’s it. No complicated workarounds anymore.

### Why builders will like this

If you’ve ever tried selling just one tool, you probably know how limiting the old setup felt. This fixes that.

You can now:

- Monetize **specific value** , not entire portals

- Create **tiered access inside the same portal**

- Experiment faster without restructuring everything

Feels like how it should have worked from the start.

Hi,

Right now we only support payments via Stripe.

Local gateways like Razorpay aren’t supported yet, and Stripe can have some limitations in India depending on setup.
