Quick start for a Pilates, yoga or fitness studio
In a studio a client books not a "free hour" but a specific class in the schedule, where there are several places. In Slotsy a class is a service with a number of places and its own schedule. A membership is a package of visits with an expiry period.
In short. A class is created as a service: Capacity → Max bookings per slot — how many people are in the group. When it takes place, you set in Schedules → Service Schedules → Own schedule. Memberships — Memberships → Plans → New Plan. A studio with one instructor works on Free at 0 zł; every additional instructor needs the Start plan (79 zł net, up to 5 people) or higher.
1. Register and set the studio hours
Create an account: name, page address slotsy.io/…, time zone, currency, owner details, password. On the Dashboard, in the When do you work? card, set the hours when the studio is open and Save. The class schedule must fit within these hours.
2. Create a class as a service
Services → Services List → New Service:
| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| Name | Morning Pilates |
| Duration | 1 h |
| Price | the price of one single class |
| Capacity → Max bookings per slot | 12 — this many people will book one class |
Create. Each type of class is a separate service. More about capacity
3. Put the class in the schedule
Schedules → Service Schedules, choose the class, on the Weekly Schedule tab — Own schedule. For each day Add session: for a one-hour class, the 18:00–19:00 session means one start at 18:00. Save. Until you save, the class can be booked at any of the studio's hours. Separate dates when there is no class — on the Special Days tab. More
4. Add instructors
If you lead all the classes yourself, skip this step. Otherwise: Staff → Staff List → Add Staff, in the form tick Services — the classes the instructor leads — and Languages they speak. After Create the Staff member created! window shows the login e-mail and a temporary password: Copy all and send it to the instructor. More
5. Create a membership
Memberships → Plans → New Plan: Plan Name (for example "8 classes / 45 days"), Total Visits, Validity (days) — counted from the first visit, Price, Available Services — which classes it can be spent on. For clients to buy a membership online, connect card payment (Payment Setup, Stripe Connect). More
Tip: The period must be realistic for a person who comes once a week: 8 classes — at least 45 days.
6. Get your link
Go Live! → Get your link opens Share & Promote: a link to the studio, a QR code for the reception desk and a link to an individual class. Book a class yourself as a client — this way you see the schedule and the places through the client's eyes. More
