For gym owners and fitness studios
The link-in-bio built for gyms.
Class schedule, free trial signup, memberships and reviews — turn followers into trial customers and trials into members.
Gym marketing is a two-step conversion. Step one: get a stranger to book a free trial. Step two: convert that trial into a paying member. Most gym bio links optimise for neither — they show a list of social handles and hope. Vyntree turns the bio into a real funnel: trial signup above the fold, class schedule one tap below, membership pricing visible (no 'request a quote'), reviews under that, and an inquiry form for the 1% who want to talk to a coach first.
The single biggest leak in most gym funnels is friction at the trial-booking step. 'Email us to arrange a trial' converts at low single digits — most people won't bother. A booking calendar embedded directly on the bio link, with the next available trial slots shown by name and time, converts at 15-25% of mobile visitors. Vyntree supports Cal.com, Calendly and most gym management systems as embeds, with optional deposit to reduce no-shows.
Pricing transparency is the second issue. Gyms that hide pricing think they're filtering tyre-kickers; in practice they're filtering qualified members. Prospects assume hidden price means expensive, so they bounce before even getting a number. Show three tiers — drop-in, monthly unlimited, annual paid up front — with what's included in each. The 1% who want a custom corporate or family plan can still inquire via the form.
The third lever is social proof done right. A 'people are saying' tile with the star rating and three pulled-out reviews (results, atmosphere, coaching) consistently lifts trial bookings by 20-30%. Pair that with a results gallery (before/after with permission, transformation testimonials, lifting PRs) and you've answered the prospect's real question: will I actually get fitter if I sign up here.

Pricing benchmarks

Common mistakes to avoid
Patterns we see every week — fix these before anything else.
Hiding pricing behind 'contact us for a tour'
Prospects assume expensive and bounce. Show three tiers. Save the personal tour for the 20% who book a trial.
Linking out to MindBody for everything
Each tap-out loses 30-40% of mobile users. Embed the schedule and the trial form in-page.
No deposit on the free trial
No-show rates of 50%+ are normal without one. A €5 refundable deposit halves that, which directly improves coach utilisation.
Generic stock photos in the gallery
Prospects can tell instantly. One photo of your actual community lifting beats ten polished agency shots.
No coach tiles
Members come for the coaching as much as the kit. Per-coach tiles with bios convert trials into long-term members faster.
Questions
Can I embed my class schedule?
Yes — MindBody, Glofox, Wodify, Zen Planner, Cal.com and Calendly work natively. Any other system works as an iframe or deep link.
How does the deposit on the free trial work?
Visitors pay a small deposit (€5 typical) when booking. It's refunded automatically when they attend. No-show rate drops 50-70%.
Can I sell memberships directly?
Yes — Paddle subscriptions for monthly, quarterly and annual. Customers self-serve cancel/upgrade in their portal.
Can drop-in customers pay per class?
Yes. Paddle one-off checkout for individual classes — the confirmation email becomes the entry pass.
Do you integrate with key fobs or access systems?
Not directly today. Most gyms use the Vyntree page for marketing/signup and their existing access system for entry.
Can I show different schedules per location?
Yes — location picker tile with separate schedules and membership pricing per location.
Can coaches have their own pages?
Yes. Each coach can have their own profile with bio, specialisms and a personal booking calendar.
Is the page mobile-friendly?
Mobile-first. Tested on iOS and Android, sub-second first paint on 4G.
