Gym Booking System for Members & Sessions

Q: Can members book gym sessions online without calling the front desk?

Yes. Members reserve sessions and equipment slots on your branded booking page or app 24/7, and SimplyBook.me checks their membership status automatically before confirming the spot.

Q: Can I sell gym memberships and prepaid sessions through the same booking system?

Yes. Memberships renew and charge through your connected payment processor and gate which sessions members can book, while Packages sell prepaid multi-visit bundles members redeem whenever they come in, with no fixed schedule.

Q: Does SimplyBook.me support QR-code check-in for gym members?

Yes. Turn on ticket QR codes for session bookings and scan each member in from the SimplyBook.me admin app when they arrive, no card readers or turnstiles required.

Q: Can I cap how many members book the same equipment slot or session?

Yes. Limit Bookings sets a maximum number of members per session, and Resources stops two members from reserving the same rack or bike for the same slot.

Q: How long does it take to set up SimplyBook.me for a gym?

Minutes. Tell the AI assistant what your gym offers and it creates your memberships, prepaid sessions and working hours for you, so you can take bookings the same day. There is no setup fee and no credit card needed to start.

Sell memberships and prepaid sessions, cap every session and equipment slot, and check members in with a QR code you switch on, no front-desk staff required. Members book and pay online 24/7 on your branded page, while SimplyBook.me verifies membership status and enforces capacity automatically.

Why you should choose SimplyBook.me

SimplyBook.me runs your gym's memberships and prepaid sessions from one account, so members book and pay without a phone call to the front desk. Their membership status decides what they are allowed to book, before you ever look at it. Add QR check-in when you want it.

Members book online, not the front desk

Members reserve a session or equipment slot online 24/7 on your branded gym booking page, and SimplyBook.me checks membership status before confirming.

Turn memberships into recurring revenue

Sell memberships that renew and charge automatically, plus prepaid session packages members redeem whenever they train, so revenue never resets to zero.

Check gym members in with a QR code

Switch on ticket QR codes and every booking issues a code members show at the door. Scan it in the admin app, with no card readers or turnstiles to install.

Gyms are one part of our wider Sports & Fitness booking system, covering coaches, personal trainers and fitness classes too.

A complete booking system built for gyms

The tools gym owners actually use to sell memberships, control who can book what, and know who actually showed up.

Sell memberships & prepaid sessions

Membership

Sell recurring gym memberships with our membership solution: it renews and charges through your connected payment processor and gates which sessions and equipment slots are members only.
Packages

Sell prepaid packages of sessions that members redeem whenever they come in, no fixed schedule locking them to a specific day or time.
Accept Payments

Take membership fees and session payments online through 30+ payment processors, so nobody needs to pay at a front desk. Set up accept payments through your booking page so clients can pay when they book.

Control sessions & check-ins

Limit Bookings

Cap how many members can book the same session, so an open-floor or strength-training slot never gets overcrowded.
Resources

Assign equipment, machines or floor space as bookable resources, so two members can't reserve the same rack or bike for the same slot.
QR check-in

Switch on ticket QR codes for a session and each booking issues a code; scan it in the admin app when a member arrives to check them in, no card readers required.

Automate payments & retention

Client Login

Members sign in to see their membership status, how many prepaid sessions they have left, and rebook or cancel without calling you. Running one-to-one coaching instead of a gym floor? See our personal trainer scheduling software.

Multiple Locations

Run every gym location from one account and one calendar, with each site's own services and staff.

SO EASY!

We were having trouble limiting CrossFit class sizes with our previous software. We would run into too many people showing up for class leading to not enough space, equipment, trainers, etc. With SimplyBook we see a lot less of those problems. I absolutely love using SimplyBook! It is so incredibly easy to use, it makes our gym so much smoother. It is such a great way to see who is attending classes, reserving their spot online, and organizing our class schedule. Due to limited space we tend to keep classes at a 16 Person maximum and SimplyBook allows to put those restrictions on the bookings. Another great feature of SimplyBook is it sends reminders out to clients before their appointment to help cut back on no shows.

From beginning to end my experience has been excellent.

This software was really easy to use. On first reading, I couldn't really believe that it would deliver everything I wanted - but it does and so much more too. the support manager I had was excellent. I paid for the initial set-up and am so glad I did as it was well worth it. The premium package is excellent and will make enormous difference to how we manage all of our events.

Love it! Easy to use

Easy to use and clients love the ease of it. Not all features available for free, have to pay extra.

Above Average

Their customer service is fast and polite. Their app is easy and simple to use. Their widget is easy to implement to a website. I can cancel, reschedule and book appointments fast and easily through the app. Its affordable. It syncs to my calendar. Its highly Customizable without being overwhelming and theyre constantly improving the app.

Fantastic scheduling service

Overall, I'm very happy with my experience with SimplyBook.me. It's a great scheduling service that really simplifies the task of managing bookings. SimplyBook.me makes scheduling appointments and managing bookings so easy and efficient. I love the ability to customize my booking page and the user-friendly interface.

Impressed with the software

I am impressed by the software and will be using it to schedule swim time during the summer due to the recent pandemic. I found the customization features easy to navigate. The overall interface is straightforward. Being a non profit HOA we were looking for a low cost but functional solution to scheduling. Simplybook even at the free level offered a lot of what I looked for. The additional tiers were value added and worth the upgrade to what we could afford.

CricketNow

So far it's pretty good, especially the support help. I really like being able to send text messages, and the tech support I get from SimplyBook.me is great. So far, initially it's a bit challenging to navigate how to use the system but once I understand, the features are good.
