Punchpass

Punchpass is a straightforward, affordable class management and booking platform designed specifically for small studios — yoga, pilates, fitness, dance, martial arts and similar businesses that run scheduled classes. While many competitors pile on features and complexity, Punchpass deliberately focuses on doing the core job of class booking, passes and attendance simply and well, which makes it a favourite for small, independent studios.

Easy class scheduling and booking

Punchpass lets studios set up their class schedule and allow students to reserve their spot online 24/7 from a clean, simple booking page. Students can see the timetable, book or join a waitlist, and receive reminders, while instructors get clear class rosters and attendance tracking. The emphasis throughout is on simplicity — it's designed so a small studio owner can set it up and run it without a steep learning curve or technical help.

Passes, memberships and payments

The platform handles class passes, punch cards, memberships and drop-ins, with online payments so students can buy and renew easily. This supports the pass-and-membership model most small studios rely on, letting owners sell packages and track usage automatically rather than managing paper punch cards or spreadsheets.

Attendance and student management

Punchpass keeps a clear record of who attended which classes, how many sessions remain on a student's pass, and each student's history. This attendance tracking is genuinely useful for small studios, helping instructors greet regulars, follow up with students who've drifted, and understand which classes are most popular.

Livestream and hybrid classes

Punchpass also supports online and livestream classes, so studios can offer virtual sessions alongside in-person ones and sell access through the same passes and memberships — helpful for reaching students who can't always attend in person.

Who it's for

Punchpass is ideal for small, independent studios that want affordable, no-nonsense class booking and attendance software without the cost or complexity of larger all-in-one platforms. Its friendly pricing and deliberate simplicity make it especially appealing to solo instructors and small teams who just want students to book classes easily and passes to be tracked automatically.

For a small studio that values simplicity, affordability and reliable class management over a sprawling feature list, Punchpass is a purpose-built, well-loved choice.

Why small studios love Punchpass

Punchpass's enduring appeal is its rare combination of simplicity and affordability: it does class booking, passes and attendance genuinely well without the cost, complexity or feature bloat of larger platforms. A small studio owner can set it up in an afternoon, students find it easy to book, and passes and attendance are tracked automatically. Responsive, friendly support adds to its reputation among independent studios. For a solo instructor or small studio that simply wants reliable class management — students booking easily, passes tracked, attendance recorded — without paying for or navigating an enterprise system, Punchpass is a refreshingly focused and dependable choice that stays out of your way.
