Key takeaways
5Everything You Need
Class timetable, member direct debit, mobile check-in, trainer commissions and BAS-ready reporting, in one platform built for Australian fitness operators.
Build the weekly timetable once, repeat it indefinitely. Cap class size, waitlists fill automatically, late-cancel fees apply themselves. Members book and pay from their phone in two taps.
Weekly, fortnightly or monthly direct debit. Pause, hold or cancel from the member portal. Failed payments auto-retry. Casual visits and class packs sit alongside recurring memberships in one ledger.
Members tap a QR code at the front desk or self-check on their phone. The system flags expired memberships, overdue payments and waiver gaps before they hit the floor. Front-of-house barely looks up.
Pay trainers per class, per head, per PT session, or as a % of revenue. Commission calculated against MA000094 rates with group-fitness loadings already baked in. Payroll export ready for Xero or MYOB at the end of the cycle. Rosters, timesheets and pay runs live in the Timesheets, Rostering & Payroll app, $29/mo on top of any plan including Free.
Every visit, booking, payment and missed class against the member's profile. A churn-risk flag fires when attendance drops two weeks in a row, so you ring before they cancel, not after.
10% GST and your ABN on every receipt automatically. Memberships, casual visits, PT packs and retail all carve out cleanly at BAS time, a single PDF for your accountant, two clicks to export.

Website included
Every paid plan includes a full website, hosted by us, with nothing extra to buy and no separate builder: your site, its booking page and the tools behind them sit on one plan. The Free plan keeps the booking page and does not have the website.
The AI drafts every page from your own answers about your studio work, not from your business name, and it does not invent claims. Every page is laid out for a phone as well as a desk. In the Website Studio you edit any section in place, add text, lists and buttons inside it, choose how many cards sit across, and change the look, which keeps your words, your photos and the spacing you set. The booking page is built in and the site's Book buttons go to it. Your first AI build is included with the plan. A later rebuild runs on AI Companion credits, and one that starts fresh replaces your pages, saving a restore point in History first.
A prospect finds you on Google at 9pm, books the Saturday 8am reformer class and pays the intro pack on the spot. The seat is held and the direct-debit mandate captured, it's just there in your timetable on Monday.
10-class reformer pack $230. Unlimited monthly membership $59/wk. A customer sees the price before they book.
The AI writes your services and the area you cover from your answers, so when someone searches 'pilates studio in [suburb]' there is a page that says what you do and where.
No card needed to start.

All three sites were drafted by the AI from the owner's answers, our own site included. It picks one of eight heading and body type pairings and how the cards sit (a fine line, a bold outline, a soft lift or no card), so a plumber's site, a driving school's and ours do not come out alike. Switch the view to see each one on a desktop, a tablet and a phone, click any screenshot to see it full size, or open the live site in a new tab. The plumber and the driving school are our demo businesses, not customers.

Not mockups, the real product screens for a working day on the studio floor.
Reformer capped at 14, HIIT at 30, vinyasa by room. Drop a class into the grid, assign the instructor, set the price, waitlists auto-promote when someone late-cancels inside your window.

Every check-in, direct debit, class pack balance and missed session on one profile. A red flag fires when a member's attendance drops two weeks running, so you text before they cancel, not after.

Members book and pay a casual visit or class pack in two taps, then tap a QR at reception. Expired memberships, overdue debits and missing waivers flag before they hit the floor.
Simple Workflow
From first class booking to monthly direct debit in four steps, designed around how a typical Australian studio or gym actually runs.
Drop classes into the weekly grid, assign trainers, set capacity and pricing. Memberships, casual visits and class packs are configured once and reused indefinitely.
Your public booking page accepts class bookings, casual visits and new memberships 24/7. Payment captured upfront: direct debit, card or class pack.
Mobile check-in flags expired memberships and unpaid invoices. Trainers see the roll on their phone, mark attendance, log any 1:1 add-ons or retail sales.
Direct debits run on schedule, failed payments retry automatically, and BAS-ready reporting sits one click away. Trainer commissions auto-calculate from sessions worked.

Example walkthrough
An illustrative walkthrough of a typical boutique studio day
Before dawn. You open the dashboard: the early reformer class is full, every bed booked, three names on the waitlist. Overnight, two casual bookings and a new intro-pack purchase came through the booking page, and the direct-debit mandate is already authorised and scheduled.
Your senior instructor opens the roll on her phone: today's three classes, the equipment setup notes, and a flagged shoulder injury against one regular. The class runs, attendance taps in on her phone, and one member grabs a grip-sock set on the way out. It lands on her account automatically.
Mid-morning. A churn-risk flag fires: a twice-a-week regular has not booked in over a fortnight. You queue a personal text from the member CRM before the pack lapses. Minutes later a late cancel inside your cancellation window auto-charges the fee you set and promotes the next person off the waitlist by SMS.
Midday. You check the numbers: sessions delivered, takings split across memberships pro-rata, class packs, casuals and retail, and two failed debits already queued to retry later in the week. Trainer commissions for the fortnight are tracking with the MA000094 group-fitness loading and weekend penalties already applied.
End of day: no evening admin. Every receipt carried GST and your ABN, and come BAS time the quarterly summary exports as one PDF. Payroll lands in Xero with loadings done.

An illustrated day, not real customer data. Scroll through it from morning to 5pm: the AI receptionist answers and books a missed call, the work runs from the app, the GST invoice is sent on the spot, payment lands and the books balance themselves, a review invite is queued for the next daily run, and the day closes with the ledger already written.

Common questions about booking, membership and class software for Australian fitness operators.
OneBookPlus is gym and fitness studio software built for Australia, class scheduling, membership and direct-debit billing, class-pack credits, mobile check-in, trainer commissions, and GST-ready invoicing in one platform. The same engine runs whether you operate a 60-member yoga studio in Newtown or a 1,200-member 24/7 club in Parramatta. Capacity caps, waitlists, late-cancel fees and pack discounting all flex to your operating model: boutique studios usually live in class packs + memberships, while larger gyms lean on recurring direct debit + casual visit fees. OneBookPlus handles both natively.
Yes. The trainer commission engine respects MA000094, Level 1 to 6 classifications, group-fitness loadings (currently 13% on top of base for instructors taking group classes), casual loading (25%), Saturday and Sunday penalty rates, and the public-holiday rate. Set each trainer's classification once and the system applies the right rate per session worked. Your payroll export to Xero or MYOB lands with the loadings already calculated. Rosters, timesheets and pay runs live in the Timesheets, Rostering & Payroll app, $29/mo on top of any plan including Free, and we do not lodge Single Touch Payroll pay events to the ATO.
No, Fitness Australia registration is a credentialling step for individual instructors and businesses (Quality Accredited Business scheme), not a software requirement. That said, most insurers will ask for proof of registration before issuing PL cover at the $10M to $20M level standard for the industry. OneBookPlus stores your registration number and renewal date on the business profile so it surfaces on invoices and member-facing pages where relevant.
Each class on the timetable has a capacity (set per class type, say 14 for reformer pilates, 30 for HIIT). When a member books, the seat is held against their account and payment captured (from membership entitlement, class pack, or casual rate). Once the class is full, further bookings flow into the waitlist in order. If someone cancels inside your cancellation window, the next person on the waitlist is auto-promoted and notified by SMS or push. Late cancels and no-shows trigger your configured fee policy automatically.
Mindbody and Glofox are the legacy heavyweights, feature-rich, priced per location and with a steep learning curve. Hapana is the Australian boutique-studio answer. Mindbody publishes Australian figures, and its entry tier was from $89/mo per location when we read the page on 1 September 2026; for Glofox and Hapana take the number off your own last invoice, because they do not publish one we can date. OneBookPlus covers the same operational ground (timetable, member billing, check-in, CRM, commissions, BAS reporting) starting from $0/month on the Free plan and $69/month on Growth. The key difference: OneBookPlus bundles invoicing, GST and BAS reporting and the booking website in one place, where the others usually need Xero (from $37/mo) on top. Vendor prices verified 2 August 2026.
About the author
Founder & CEO, OneBookPlus
Bishal spent a decade running digital projects for Australian small businesses before founding OneBookPlus. He writes and maintains these pages, and publishes what OneBookPlus does not do alongside what it does.
Read the founder bioHow this page was researched
The compliance and licensing statements above are taken from the bodies this page links to, including AUSactive, Consumer Affairs Victoria and NSW Fair Trading, so you can read the rule rather than take our word for it. Plan prices come from the OneBookPlus price registry, so the page and the checkout cannot disagree. Everything said about OneBookPlus describes what the product does today, and the page says so where it does not do something.
If you run a gym, a yoga or pilates studio, or you're an independent personal trainer in Australia, the operational stack hasn't really changed in a decade. You're paying for Mindbody, Glofox or Hapana to handle bookings and membership direct debit, Xero on top of that for invoicing and BAS, a separate website builder for the public-facing booking page, and maybe Mailchimp for member comms. Each tool speaks its own language, none of the data reconciles cleanly at month-end, and you're paying somewhere between $250 and $500 a month for the privilege. OneBookPlus replaces the lot with a single platform built for how Australian fitness operators actually work: mobile-first, GST-ready, and aware of MA000094.
The platform covers the full member lifecycle from first booking to recurring direct debit and eventual cancellation (or hold, or reactivation, all handled automatically). A prospective member finds you through your public OneBookPlus booking page, picks a class or signs up to a membership, and pays upfront via card or sets up direct debit. The booking lands on the trainer's phone, the member shows up, taps a QR check-in at reception (or self-checks on their own device), and the system flags anything that needs attention: expired waiver, overdue payment, lapsed membership. The class runs, attendance is marked on the trainer's phone, any retail or PT add-ons go straight onto the member's tab. At the end of the cycle, direct debits run, failed payments retry, trainer commissions calculate against MA000094 rates, and the BAS-ready GST summary sits ready in two clicks.
Picture a typical Tuesday at a 350-member reformer pilates studio in Brisbane. You open the OneBookPlus dashboard at 6am over coffee: the 6:15am class is full with three on the waitlist, the 9:30am has two open spots, and there are four new casual bookings overnight. A churn-risk flag has appeared against one member who hasn't booked in three weeks; you queue a personal text. Your senior instructor opens her phone and sees today's three classes with the roll, equipment setup notes, and any flagged injuries against members. The 6:15 class runs, attendance is tapped in on her phone, one member picks up a retail tee on the way out and it lands on her account. By 10am the morning block is done, the afternoon timetable is set, and three new memberships have come in through the booking page overnight, direct debits already authorised and scheduled. At lunch you check the dashboard: 22 sessions delivered today, $1,650 revenue (memberships pro-rata + class packs + casuals + retail), two flagged failed payments auto-retrying tomorrow, and trainer commissions for the fortnight tracking $4,200 against budget. No evening admin.
Direct-debit batches reconcile against member accounts. If a payment fails, the system retries on a schedule you set, and the member is notified by email and SMS. Expenses you log (rent, equipment, utilities, insurance, cleaning) are categorised and tracked against revenue, and a photographed receipt or PDF bill is read for supplier, date, GST and total, so you see real margin per class type rather than just gross turnover. GST is calculated on every invoice and receipt automatically. Memberships, casual visits, class packs, PT sessions and retail all carve out cleanly. When BAS time arrives, the quarterly summary exports as a single PDF: GST collected, GST paid, and the net balance owed or refundable. Hand it to your accountant or lodge it yourself in minutes. Trainer payroll exports to Xero or MYOB with MA000094 loadings (group-fitness 13%, casual 25%, weekend and public-holiday rates) already applied. Rosters, timesheets and pay runs live in the Timesheets, Rostering & Payroll app, $29/mo on top of any plan including Free.
Sign up in under a minute. No credit card required. Add your ABN, upload your logo, set your class types and capacity, plug in your direct-debit provider, and build the first week of your timetable. Import existing members from a spreadsheet or your old platform (we have one-click importers for the major incumbents) and members get a welcome email with a link to download the booking app. Most operators run their first class through OneBookPlus within a fortnight of signing up. The free plan covers up to 250 member contacts so you can pilot it on a single class block before committing; the Starter plan ($29/month, or less on annual billing) suits independent trainers and growing studios, and Growth ($69/month) handles multi-site studios with trainer payroll, class-pack accounting, retail and member CRM at scale. Either way, it's a fraction of what you'd pay for Mindbody plus Xero plus your booking website combined.
