How to start a payments app for dance, yoga and martial arts studios
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Dance schools, yoga studios and martial arts clubs collect monthly fees, sell class packs and charge for gradings, shows and kit. A payments app built for them, under your own brand, can handle all of it, and you can offer it to studios across a city, region or governing network.
What studios need
- Monthly memberships collected by subscription.
- Payment links for class packs and drop-ins.
- Invoices or links for gradings, shows, uniforms and kit.
- An account that shows who has paid this month.
Who could launch it
A studio chain, a dance or martial arts association, a teacher training school or an entrepreneur who knows the class-based fitness world.
How to get your first users
Start with one studio, move its members onto subscriptions, then share how much time it saved with other studio owners you meet at events and competitions.
