Membership & Class-Booking Apps Built for Montreal Gyms and Fitness Studios
Stop chasing no-shows and wrestling with spreadsheets. We build custom booking and membership software so your studio runs smoothly — from the Plateau to NDG to Laval.
Montreal's fitness scene is competitive. Between Éconofitness undercutting on price and boutique studios multiplying in every borough, independent gyms and studios need more than a good program — they need a seamless member experience from the first free trial to the annual renewal. When members can book, pay, and manage their own accounts in seconds, they stay longer and refer more friends.
At Global Maple System, we design and build membership platforms and class-booking apps tailored specifically to your studio's workflow — whether you run a high-volume CrossFit box in Verdun, a bilingual yoga studio in the Mile End, or a martial arts academy in Saint-Laurent. No bloated off-the-shelf software forcing you into someone else's business model. Just clean, fast, conversion-focused technology built around how you actually operate.

What Gyms & Fitness Studios in Montreal tell us
- ✕Spending hours each week manually confirming bookings, processing cancellations, and texting members about schedule changes instead of growing the business.
- ✕Losing members silently — no system flags when someone hasn't shown up in three weeks until it's too late and the cancellation email arrives.
- ✕Juggling two languages, two billing cycles, and three different membership tiers inside a patchwork of Google Sheets, Interac e-Transfers, and group chats.
- ✕Paying premium monthly fees to generic booking platforms like Mindbody that weren't built for your specific class format, pricing structure, or Quebec tax requirements.
Why Montreal Gyms & Fitness Studios choose us
Fill Every Spot, Automatically
A real-time booking system with waitlists and automated reminders means your 6 AM spin class fills up overnight — without a single text or phone call from your front desk.
Collect Dues Without the Drama
Recurring billing, pre-authorized debit, and automatic payment retries handle your monthly revenue so you stop chasing late payments and focus on coaching.
Retain Members Through the January Drop-Off
Automated check-in tracking, milestone messages, and re-engagement flows reach members before they ghost — helping you hold onto members past February when most Montreal studios see their biggest churn.
Run Bilingually Without Double the Work
Your platform works in both French and English seamlessly, so every member — from Outremont to Pointe-Saint-Charles — gets a native-language experience without extra admin effort on your side.
Know Your Numbers in Real Time
Built-in dashboards show attendance trends, revenue per class, membership growth, and churn risk so you make smarter scheduling and staffing decisions every week.
Made for Gyms & Fitness Studios
Custom Class-Booking System
A branded web and mobile booking experience — including class schedules, real-time capacity, waitlists, and instructor bios — built to match your studio's identity, not a template.
Membership Management Portal
Full member lifecycle management: onboarding flows, contract storage, membership-tier upgrades, freeze requests, and self-serve account management so your staff handles exceptions, not routine tasks.
Automated Billing & Payments
Pre-authorized debit and credit card processing with automatic retry logic, dunning sequences, and Quebec-compliant invoicing — so your monthly revenue lands on time, every time.
Member Mobile App
A lightweight iOS and Android app your members download under your brand: book classes, check schedules, track personal records, and receive push notifications for last-minute openings or promotions.
Retention & Re-Engagement Automations
Smart triggers that fire when a member misses multiple sessions, approaches a renewal date, or drops in visit frequency — sending personalized messages that bring them back before they cancel.

Questions, answered
Yes. Every member-facing screen, notification, and email can be delivered in the member's preferred language. You manage one system; your members each see their own language. This is table stakes for any Montreal fitness business and we build it in from day one.
Both are possible. We can build integrations with existing tools if switching right now isn't practical, or we can migrate your full member database, billing history, and class schedule into a new custom system with zero downtime for your members.
Our billing module is configured for Canadian tax rules from the start — GST and QST are calculated and applied correctly on memberships and drop-ins, and invoices are formatted to meet CRA and Revenu Québec requirements.
Freeze requests, pause windows, and reactivation flows are built into the member portal. Members submit their own freeze requests within the rules you define — maximum freeze duration, how many times per year — and billing adjusts automatically.
A focused membership and booking platform typically takes eight to fourteen weeks from kickoff to launch, depending on complexity. We start with a working MVP your members can use quickly, then add features in phases so you're generating value well before the final deliverable.
