3 Ways to Sell

Sell access to your classes and events your way

Credit packs, memberships, and event tickets — mix and match all three. Most studios end up using all of them.

Pay-as-you-go

Credit Packs

Customers buy a bundle of credits once and spend them on any class — flexible for drop-ins and irregular schedules.

  • Set any price and credit amount
  • Credits deduct instantly at check-in
  • Great for casual or mixed-attendance studios
Recurring revenue

Memberships

Auto-renewing monthly plans that give members free access to exactly the classes and events you choose.

  • True recurring billing via Stripe
  • Pick which classes & events are included
  • Customers cancel anytime — access runs through the paid period
One-off ticket sales

Events

Sell tickets to workshops, socials, or special classes with their own price, date, and capacity.

  • Custom price, capacity & cover photo
  • Each ticket gets a unique QR code
  • Lead/Follow role booking for partner-dance events
  • Great for one-off workshops outside the regular schedule
Partner Dance · Built In

Lead & Follow booking — the way partner dance actually works.

No other platform understands the Lead/Follow dynamic. Enable it on any class or event and your customers choose their role when they book. Separate capacity caps keep the floor balanced automatically — no more scrambling at the door because you have 12 leads and 3 follows.

  • Customers pick Lead or Follow when they book
  • Separate caps per role — floor stays balanced automatically
  • Bookings view shows "4L · 3F" on every class pill
  • Full roster with role badges, visible to staff
  • Staff can set role at check-in for walk-ins
  • Works for weekly classes and one-off ticketed events

Opt-in per class or event — non-dance studios are completely unaffected.

Built to help you sell more, with less work

Credit packs, event tickets, class scheduling, QR check-in, staff roles, and customer self-service — everything a class-based business needs to grow, in one place.

Classes, workshops & events

A schedule that runs itself

Set recurring weekly classes once and they appear automatically every week. Add one-time workshops or ticketed events for a specific date. Customers reserve their own spot right from the portal — no credit is deducted until they actually check in. Cancel a single occurrence without touching the template — staff and customers both see it update instantly.

  • Recurring & one-time classes
  • Customers book their own spot
  • Per-occurrence cancellations
  • Instructor & location per class
  • Cover photos for classes & events
  • Clone any class in one click
  • Lead/Follow role booking for partner dance
  • Live in the customer portal

Book as a Lead or Follow

For partner-dance studios, customers choose their role when reserving a spot or buying a ticket. Separate Lead and Follow capacity caps keep the floor balanced — and your Bookings page shows the split at a glance.

A portal that speaks their language — literally

Fully bilingual in English and Spanish. Customers switch with a single tap, so language is never a barrier to registering, buying, or showing up.

Eliminate front-desk bottlenecks

Every customer has a secure QR code on their phone. Walk in, scan, done — in under 5 seconds. No app downloads, no PINs, no queues at the front desk.

Customers buy when the moment is right

A Stripe-powered checkout from any browser, any device. Customers top up credits and buy event tickets without calling the studio or waiting for office hours.

End the 'Is class on today?' texts

The live schedule — including cancellations — is in every customer's portal. Self-service information means fewer interruptions to your day and a better experience for them.

Studio announcements, front and centre

Holiday hours, new class launches, schedule changes — owners post once and it shows up instantly at the top of every customer's portal, with an option to email it to everyone too. No group texts, no manual mailing lists.

No more surprises at the door

Credit balance is front and centre in every customer's portal. They always know what they have left — so you never have an uncomfortable conversation at check-in.

Transparency that builds loyalty

Every purchase, check-in, and adjustment is logged. Customers have a complete, verifiable record — which eliminates billing disputes and builds the kind of trust that keeps them coming back.

Cover photos that set the mood

Upload a cover image for each class or event. It appears in the customer schedule and event listing so customers know exactly what they're signing up for — no more walls of identical text.

Payments & Security

Every payment handled by Stripe.

We don't build our own payment infrastructure — we partner with Stripe, the world's most trusted payments platform, so your customers' financial data is always protected by the best in the business.

PCI DSS Level 1

Stripe is certified to the highest level of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard — the same level as the world's largest banks.

We never touch your card data

Card numbers, CVVs, and banking details go directly to Stripe. Our servers never see them, never store them, and are never in the path of a payment.

Trusted globally

Stripe powers payments for Amazon, Google, Shopify, Lyft, and millions of businesses in 135+ countries. When your customers pay, they are in the best hands in the industry.

Built-in fraud detection

Stripe's Radar system analyses every transaction in real time and blocks fraudulent payments before they reach your studio — automatically, with no setup required.

"Your customers' card details never pass through our system."

Payments flow directly from your customer's browser to Stripe's secure servers. We receive a confirmation, not the card data. That's by design — it means your studio is never a target for payment data theft.
