Plenty of sign-ups in January, fewer members by March. Retention is the real challenge for gyms and studios, and a branded member app keeps you in members’ pockets every day.

Every gym and fitness studio knows the pattern: plenty of sign-ups in January, fewer regulars by March. Retention is the real challenge, and engagement drives it. A branded app keeps your gym in your members’ pockets every day.

Member app features

  • Membership details, renewal dates and online renewal or freeze
  • Class timetables and booking for yoga, pilates, HIIT, spin or personal training, with waitlists
  • QR or app-based check-in at the door
  • Workout and nutrition plans shared by trainers
  • Progress tracking: weight, measurements, personal bests and photos
  • Challenges and leaderboards that build community
  • Notifications for new classes, offers and events
  • Referral rewards

Trainer and staff features

  • Assigned clients and personal training sessions
  • Share plans and follow member progress
  • Attendance and class capacity

Owner dashboard

  • Active members, renewals due and lapsed members
  • Class occupancy and peak hours
  • Revenue by membership type, personal training and extras

Benefits

  • Higher renewal rates through reminders and engagement
  • Full classes thanks to easy booking and waitlists

Health and body data shared in the app deserves care: ask for consent, let members control what they share and store it securely, as GDPR and similar laws expect.
