Switching
Switch from paper, a spreadsheet or your current gym software.
Bring your members in from a file, or let them sign themselves up. Keep what works, like your direct debits, and stay month to month.
From paper or a register book
Type in tonight's class, or post the signup link in your WhatsApp group and let members add themselves. Take your first register the same night.
From a spreadsheet
Paste it in from Google Sheets or upload the Excel or CSV file. Lapelio works out which column is which and shows a preview before anything is saved. Your sheet stays as it is.
From other gym software
Export your members from it as a CSV or Excel file and import that. If your current software can't export, send me what you can get out of it and I'll help.
One honest thing first: Lapelio doesn't run direct debit or charge cards on a schedule. Keep your direct debits running and Lapelio shows who's paid across all of it. If your current setup does everything and you're happy, you may not need to switch at all.
What carries over
- Members, families and contact details
- Plans and each member's price
- Belts, stripes and notes
- What each person has paid for the period you're in
The 48-hour switch, done with you
Send us your spreadsheet, an Excel file or a photo of the register, and we'll have your club ready in 48 hours: members in, prices set, signup link ready. We prepare the import and you click Import. Or we do it together on a 20-minute call.
Your first result
By your next class night: who's here, who's new, who owes you and how much. And if you leave, export everything any time.
FAQ
Questions owners ask
Do I have to cancel my current software first?
No. Run both side by side for a month if you like, and cancel when you're sure.
Will my members notice?
Only the new bits: the door QR, the signup link and your free-trial page. Everything else is on your side.
Can I get my data out?
Yes, any time, free, from the app. If you close your account you have 30 days to export everything before it's erased.
