Take bookings and payments around the clock, fill classes automatically from the waitlist, and give students one free app to book from. No monthly fee, just 2.5% per booking, capped at $99 a month.
The difference a booking system makes to a yoga studio is the difference between chasing reservations by hand and waking up to a class that filled itself overnight. A yoga booking system is simply the software that lets students see your schedule, reserve a spot and pay online, at any hour. Which one you choose decides how much of your week you spend on admin, and how much of each booking you keep.
yoganear.me is built specifically for yoga studios, not adapted from generic salon or gym software. Your schedule, class credits, memberships and payments live in one place, and the same booking works from your website, your studio's page on yoganear.me, and our free app. There's no subscription: you pay 2.5% per booking, capped at $99 a month, and nothing else. The fee gets smaller as a share of revenue the busier you are, the opposite of how a monthly plan behaves.

Students find a class, book it and pay in a few taps, on your website, your yoganear.me studio page, or in the app. Payment is taken at the point of booking, so a reserved spot is a paid spot, not a maybe.
When a class is full, students join the waitlist. If someone cancels inside your cancellation window, the next person is offered the place automatically and notified by push, so popular classes stay full without you refreshing a screen. You set the rules once — how late someone can cancel and how many spots exist — and the system holds them for every class.
Recurring weekly classes, one-off workshops, multi-week courses, teacher trainings and private appointments all live on the same schedule. Set a class to repeat and every future occurrence is created for you; change one and decide whether it affects that session or the whole series.
Students pay the way that suits them, whether drop-in, a class pass, or a membership, and the system tracks credits and validity automatically, so a 10-class pass counts down correctly and an expired membership can't book. You see who's coming to each class, mark attendance, and check people in from any device.
Every studio on yoganear.me shares one free student app on the App Store and Google Play. Students book, pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay or card, manage their passes and memberships, and get a push notification the moment a waitlist spot opens or a class changes. There's no separate app to build and no per-message texting bill; notifications are unlimited and included.
Because the app is shared across studios, a student who already has it can book your classes without downloading anything new. And if you'd rather meet students on your own website, your live schedule embeds there as a widget.
Your students, your schedule and your bookings belong to you. There's no contract and no setup fee, so you can have your studio live and taking real bookings the same afternoon, and leave whenever you like. Every new studio gets a couple of personal onboarding calls to import an existing client list and rebuild the schedule.
yoganear.me covers what a yoga studio needs end to end: booking, memberships, payments, teacher pay and reporting. It doesn't try to be a retail point-of-sale for a shop floor or an on-demand video platform; if those are central to your business, you'll want a tool built around them.
There's no subscription and no setup fee. You pay 2.5% per booking, capped at $99 a month, so quiet months cost less and busy months never cost more than the cap. Card processing from PayPal or Stripe applies on top, as it does on any platform.
What is a yoga booking system?
It's the software students use to see your schedule, reserve a class and pay for it online. For the studio, it handles the schedule, class credits, memberships, waitlists and payouts in one place, so bookings and money are managed automatically instead of by hand.
How much does yoganear.me cost?
There's no subscription and no setup fee. You pay 2.5% per booking, capped at $99 a month, so your cost rises and falls with your bookings and never exceeds the cap. Card processing fees from PayPal or Stripe apply on top, as they do on any platform.
Can students book from my own website?
Yes. Your live schedule embeds on your website as a widget, so students can browse and start booking right there, then confirm on yoganear.me. They can also book from your studio page on yoganear.me or from the free app, all on the same live schedule.
Does it handle waitlists automatically?
Yes. When a class is full, students join the waitlist, and if a spot frees up inside your cancellation window the next person is offered it automatically and notified by push. You don't have to manage the list by hand.
Do I need to install anything for my students?
No. Students book from your website or your yoganear.me page in a browser, and can optionally download the free student app for one-tap rebooking and push notifications. There's nothing to install for the studio either.
How quickly can I start taking bookings?
You can create your studio, add your schedule and prices, and share your booking link the same day. There's no contract, and every new studio gets personal onboarding calls to help import clients and set up the schedule.
Create your studio for free and start taking bookings today. No credit card, no contract, no monthly fee.

Full disclosure upfront: yoganear.me is our platform, and it's one of the platforms in this comparison. Our founder ran a yoga studio in Glasgow, used Mindbody the entire time, and researched every competitor while building yoganear.me. Here's what we actually think about each option, including where ours falls short.

It's March. The January rush has evaporated. Your evening vinyasa is back to six regulars and a lot of empty mat space. And then you see the same software bill you paid eight weeks ago when the studio was packed. Something about that maths doesn't sit right.
