Class Waitlist & Auto-Fill Booking System
A done-for-you fitness and wellness automation built for the Yoga Studio Owner, connecting Twilio and Stripe so the work below happens on its own.
What this automation does, step by step
When a class reaches capacity, additional sign-ups automatically land on the waitlist and receive a confirmation with their position.
The moment a registered student cancels, the next person on the waitlist is immediately texted with a booking link that expires in 30 minutes, keeping classes full without the studio owner or front desk manually managing the list throughout the day.
Students who cancel after the deadline receive an automatic late-cancel fee notification per the studio policy, removing the awkward conversation from the staff's plate.
- Studio management software (e.g., Mindbody or Pike13)
- Zapier or Make.com
- Twilio (waitlist SMS notifications)
- Stripe (late cancel fee processing)
Using different software? We build around what you already have, so you never have to switch tools to automate.
The manual way vs. the automated way
Without automation
Done by hand, this depends entirely on a yoga studio owner remembering to check in, update records, and follow up, with no safety net if something slips. Over a month, those small manual steps add up to a significant amount of lost time.
With this automation
- Multi-touch reminders that measurably reduce no-shows
- Waitlists that backfill cancellations automatically
- Self-scheduling with instant confirmations
- Dispatch and on-my-way updates sent to the right people
