Booking software for coaching, classes and studios
Yoga at 7 AM, a maths batch after school, a weekend workshop and private sessions in between. Ellibo Bookings counts the seats, keeps a waiting list for full classes and tells the next person when a place opens.
Free for one person, for as long as you like. Works on any device.
Classes that fill themselves
Running a batch or a studio means counting heads. These are the jobs that eat your evenings.
Counting seats on a group chat
Students reply "in" on a message thread, you count by hand, and twelve turn up for ten mats.
Each class has a set number of seats. When they are gone, the page stops taking bookings for it.
A full class turns people away for good
Someone drops out at the last minute, but the people who wanted in have already moved on.
Turn on a waiting list. When a place opens, the next three people waiting are emailed, and the first to book gets it.
Entering every date of a term
A twelve-week batch means typing twelve dates, then doing it again for the next batch.
Add a class once and repeat it, up to 52 classes at a time. Choose series, where one booking joins them all, or drop in.
Fees chased after the class
Students promise to pay next week, and next week never comes.
On Professional, take payment online when they book. Each payment is a real invoice in your books.

Can I limit how many people join a class?
Yes. Set the seats on each class. Customers choose how many places they need, and booking stops when the class is full.
Can students book a whole course at once?
Yes. Set the class to Series and one booking joins every class in it. Use Drop in when each class is booked on its own.
Is there a waiting list?
Yes, on Professional. People join it when a class is full. When a place opens, the next three are emailed and the first to book gets it.
Can I sell a pack of 10 classes?
Not as a class pack inside Bookings today. You can offer a series that joins a whole course in one booking, or bill regular students monthly with Ellibo Subscriptions.
What if I have to cancel a class?
Cancel it and everyone booked is told. Anyone who paid appears under Refunds, where you approve how much goes back.
Which plan has group classes?
Group classes and the waiting list are on Professional and up. Every new business can try them free for 14 days.
