Reduce Member Churn and Automate Billing
AI booking + failed payment recovery + member engagement automation = full classes, predictable revenue, zero manual follow-up.

Common Questions from Fitness Studios & Gyms
- How do you reduce membership churn?
- Automated check-ins at 30, 60, 90 days: 'How's it going? Need help with your goals?' Plus engagement campaigns for members who stop attending classes. Churn typically drops from 40-50% to 20-25%.
- Can you recover failed credit card payments?
- Yes. Automated retry system attempts payment 3 times over 7 days with different messaging. Members get SMS + email alerts. Recovery rate is typically 60-70% vs. 20-30% with manual follow-up.
- Do you integrate with fitness studio software?
- Yes. We integrate with Mindbody, Zen Planner, Pike13, Glofox, Wodify, ClubReady, and most studio management platforms. You keep your existing tools.
- What about re-engaging members who stopped coming?
- Automated re-engagement sequence triggers when a member hasn't attended in 14+ days: 'Miss you! Here's a free class to get back in.' Win-back rate is typically 15-25%.
- How fast will I see results?
- Failed payment recovery goes live within 24 hours and shows immediate impact (your next billing cycle). Member retention automation shows results within 30-60 days.
