Each module replaces a separate vendor — and unlike Mindbody, you're not charged per active member.

Class Scheduling

Recurring weekly classes with capacity per slot, waitlist auto-promote on cancellation, member-only vs drop-in pricing, instructor swaps, substitute notifications.

Contactless Check-in

Face ID, QR code or NFC at the door. Auto-verifies active membership, opens turnstile or smart door via IoT, logs the visit. No receptionist needed.

Recurring Memberships

Auto-renewing monthly or annual plans, grace period for expired members ("still book 1 session on credit"), pause/freeze, family plans, gift memberships.

Court & Facility Booking

Tennis courts, padel courts, squash, basketball — bookable by hour. Dynamic pricing (peak vs off-peak), member-vs-guest tiers, multi-court packages.

AI Vision Occupancy

Cameras count active people inside in real time. Members see live occupancy on the app and decide when to come. No facial data is stored — just the count.

Open Party (Pickup Games)

Players post open games (padel, tennis, football, basketball). Others browse and join by ELO/skill. Auto-confirm on min players, auto-balance teams, auto-split payment.

From signup to first member check-in in one afternoon.

Owners ask us…

No per-member pricing — really?

Really. Flat per location. Add 50 members or 5,000 — same price. Mindbody and Glofox both move you up tiers as your active member count grows; we don't.

Is the face-ID check-in privacy-safe?

Yes. Face data is stored as a one-way embedding (not the raw image), encrypted, and is GDPR right-to-erase compliant. Members can opt for QR or NFC instead at any time. The system never sells or shares biometric data.

What does AI Vision actually track?

A live count of how many people are inside, plus daily unique visitor count. Members see "23/40 in the gym now" on the app and decide when to come. No facial data is stored from the occupancy camera — just the count.

How does recurring billing work?

Stripe-backed recurring billing in EUR (multi-currency available). Grace period configurable per plan — typically 7 days where the member can still book 1 session on credit before being locked out.

Court booking — can I do peak/off-peak pricing?

Yes. Define rate plans by hour-of-day and day-of-week. Member vs guest pricing layered on top. Bulk court packages supported (e.g. "10 hours of court time for €100").

Does Open Party work for sports beyond padel/tennis?

Yes. Configure any sport. ELO ratings are per-sport. Common configs: padel, tennis, basketball, volleyball, beach volley, football 5-a-side, table tennis.

Can a member get a copy of a membership/class receipt they lost?

Yes — one tap on the sale emails or SMSs the member the official tax-authority PDF link, or thermal-reprints a copy marked ΑΝΤΙΓΡΑΦΟ (Greek-tax-compliant). The original AADE MARK is preserved; every reissue is audit-logged. Greek AADE Πάροχος integrated today; other countries' modules on the roadmap.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — free to start, no credit card required.
