A personal trainer's calendar: appointments, training packages and cancellations

For personal trainers
Booking software for personal trainers — no replying to messages between sets.
Members sign up and out themselves, classes have a clear seat count, and the waitlist fills every gap. For one-on-one sessions and court rental, add a court, hall or reformer as a resource — two bookings on the same court can't happen. You run the training — not the messages.

Appointa for personal trainers — in practice
A personal trainer lives on fixed slots: same client, same day, same time — and a message whenever something shifts. Sessions run early in the morning and in the evening, with driving, meals and your own training in between. Appointa holds your fixed slots, offers online only the hours you actually work and tells the client about every change itself, so your schedule no longer lives in chat threads.
Mondays and Thursdays at 7
Same client, twice a week, same time? Turn their booking into a weekly recurring series on both days. Appointa enters the sessions ahead, so nobody can grab that time online, and a reminder goes out before each one. Recurring appointments are available on the Pro and Premium plans.
Before work, after work
You train from 6 to 10 am and again from 5 to 9 pm? Enter two shifts for that day and clients online see only those hours — midday stays yours. Need one day to differ? A special shift changes just that date, leaving the weekly schedule untouched.
Intro consultation with a questionnaire
Before the first meeting the client gets a questionnaire by e-mail: goals, injuries, health notes. You read the answers next to the booking in the calendar, so the intro consultation goes on the plan, not on questions. The form never blocks the booking and is available on Pro and Premium.
Group sessions with seat counts
Yoga for 20, small group for 6 — every session has a capacity and a live 4/20 indicator. Sign-ups close themselves when full.
Members sign up themselves
The schedule lives online; joining and leaving a class takes two clicks, with no midnight messages. New sessions show up instantly.
The waitlist fills the gaps
If someone drops out an hour before, the next person on the list gets notified and takes the spot. A full class stays full.
Attendance history
Who shows up regularly and who's gone quiet — you see it at a glance and can react before a member drops off.

The questions that come up first
I sell 10-session packs. Does Appointa track what's left?
Yes, on the Premium plan. You define the pack once (sessions, validity, services), sell it on the client's card and take payment as you do now — Appointa never charges your clients. Each booking deducts one session, a cancellation returns it and a no-show uses it up. The client sees in the app how many sessions are left.
I have private commitments too. Will someone book me in the middle of them?
Not if you connect your calendar. On the Pro and Premium plans Appointa sends your appointments to Google, Apple or Outlook Calendar, and events in your private calendar close that time for online booking. A parents' evening at 6 pm means nobody can book you at that time.
Clients cancel half an hour before the session. Can I limit that?
You can. In the booking rules you set how late a client may cancel on their own, say 12 hours before. After that, cancelling in the app or on the web no longer works and they have to call you. If they don't show up, mark the booking as a no-show and it stays in their history.
How do members see the schedule?
On your page appointa.hr/s/your-studio — nothing to install. Joining a session takes two clicks, leaving too.
What happens when a class is full?
Sign-ups close automatically, and anyone interested joins the waitlist. If a spot frees up, the next person gets notified.
Can I cap the seats per session?
Yes — every session has its own capacity (say 12 for yoga, 6 for small group). You see it at a glance as 4/12.
