Set up your gym

Use the onboarding chat to add a location, program, pass type, and your first classes.

The Fitnito setup chat walking a new gym through locations and programs — Setup chat — tell it how you run classes and it creates the first records.

New gyms open on Onboarding. It is a chat with the Fitnito Assistant that creates real records as you talk — not a slideshow.

What setup covers

The checklist is the minimum to take a booking:

A location (the room or park you teach in).
A program (Strength, Yoga, Kids — whatever you call a class type). Give it a color and an icon; members will see that color on the week view.
A pass type so members have something that unlocks booking.
At least one class on the calendar.
A booking site subdomain so members have a URL.

You can skip the chat and click through Locations, Programs, Pass types, and Sessions yourself. The checklist updates either way.

Tips that save rework

Give each program a distinct color. The member week view — and Sessions → On the Calendar — paint classes with those colors. The program form has a mini calendar so you can check first.
Start with one location if you teach in one room. Parallel classes at the same time need a second location.
After you have a pass type, add a product that sells it: a membership can include several passes; a visit pack points at one pass (change that on the pack). The pass page’s Sold through Products tab shows what you attached.
Decide now whether members will buy online or you will assign plans by hand. You can change later.
A location or business address in Canada starts memberships, visit packs, and drop-ins in CAD, including ones you say yes to here. Save that address on the location before the first price. This chat asks for the street, city, province or state, postal code, and country. All five are required for the address to save. Locations → Edit can save them too. Connecting a Canadian Stripe account does the same when nothing is priced yet. A free USD draft with no Stripe price moves to CAD. A US Stripe account leaves USD. A chat that never saves that address, and does not connect a Canadian Stripe account, stays on USD. US gyms stay on USD. A Canadian gym that wants USD sets Settings → Payments → Currency afterward. Changing the currency there stays. Saving Settings without changing Currency does not. A priced product, invoice, or Stripe price keeps its currency. See Gym settings.

After the checklist is done

Onboarding stays available, but day-to-day questions belong in the Fitnito Assistant from the nav. You can still add locations, programs, and classes the long way.
