Recurring Classes 🔄: Bulk Cancel and Extended Bookings Now Live

We’re excited to announce that extended bookings for recurring classes and bulk cancel features are now available for restricted memberships. 

For all recurring class bookings, we’ve added a bulk cancel feature that will allow you to cancel one or all bookings for a particular member with the click of a button. Additionally, classes can now be created further into the future when setting up a recurring class booking on a restricted membership to ensure your clients secure their preferred weekly slot.  Both developments should help improve the efficiency of managing schedules for staff and save admin time. 

What does this release include?  

  • The bookings can be made for restricted and unlimited members: 
  • Unlimited memberships – unlimited time into the future. 
  • Restricted memberships – 4 months into the future. 
  • Recurring classes can be canceled individually or in bulk  

How Can I Cancel Recurring Class Bookings? 

  • To cancel all classes within a series for a particular member, simply select the class from the calendar on the Dashboard.  
  • Select the drop down beside the member you want to cancel for under “actions” and select the bulk cancel option ‘This and all following classes’.  Please note that you can only perform a bulk cancel for recurring classes created after 1st May 2024.

Restricted Memberships: Flexible Payments & New Cart

Our newest enhancement to the Glofox platform brings a more efficient and flexible flow for purchasing restricted memberships. Restricted memberships give you more control over the number of classes or appointments that a member can attend at your gym or studio. For example, you could create a restricted membership with 8 class credits to use per month. 

Take advantage of easy to use search capabilities for selecting the right items to purchase, more insight into taxes, discounts, subtotals and totals at checkout, as well as a single receipt for all of a member’s purchases.

What's New?

Our new restricted membership flow makes it possible to purchase restricted memberships in the new cart on the dashboard. As part of this release, users will be able to:

  • Purchase a Restricted Membership in the new cart 
  • Purchase a membership using a flexible payment (ie, alternate between card and cash)
  • Purchase a restricted membership with the POS terminal 

Note: this will not be supported in the old cart 

How to Use It:

  1. Click the Checkout icon on the left side of the Dashboard 

  2.  On the new page, select the client you wish to purchase an item or items for by clicking "Select Client" 

  3. Click select item and select the product/service you wish to purchase for the client. 

  4. If required click select item again to select additional products or services for the client. 

  5. Select the payment method on the right of the page, under the Payment breakdown 

  6. Click "Pay" 

  7. Once the transaction has been completed you can "Close Cart" to return to the Dashboard or start a "New Checkout" 

For more information, please check out this support article or our quick loom video:

What’s coming next: 

As part of the purchasing flow, we’ll be releasing "gift first period" and the ability to purchase a consecutive membership for restricted membership. We'll also be looking to improve our canceling and scheduling.

Reporting for One-Off Emails

Understanding how email campaigns resonate with customers is an essential part of iterating and evolving your sales and marketing strategy, to craft the most meaningful messages, and drive your best business results. 

As such, we’re excited to release reporting for one-off emails! 

This enables you to click on a sent message in Connect > Messages > One-off emails and assess key success metrics: 

  • Sent – who was targeted by the email 
  • Delivered – who successfully received the email 
  • Opens and open rate – who opened the email 
  • Clicks and click rate – who clicked on a link within the email 
  • Delivery Failed – who didn’t receive the email 

 
These metrics are shown in respective cards, all of which can be further analyzed by clicking on them, to see the full list of relevant customers, alongside the details for the event. Additionally, you can also:  

  • See a time-series graph of Opened/Clicked over time, to see the evolution of engagement with that email. 
  • Download the full report and download each of the drill-down lists for the metrics 
  • Adjust the time period relevant for the data
     

You can learn more on our Knowledge Base article.

It’s worth noting that the report will only display data for newly sent one-off emails, so previously sent messages will be empty. 


In the meantime, we’d love to get your feedback and questions on this release, so we can continuously improve it!

Fully customize your campaigns with our new email editor

Creating visually appealing email campaigns that align with your brand is essential for getting the best campaign results. Until now, however, the visual customization for emails sent from Glofox was limited to basic text formatting and images.  

As such, we’re excited to release our new drag-and-drop email editor! You can find it by going to Connect > Messages > One-off emails.

This editor radically enhances the customization capabilities available, including: 

  • Full layout customization 
  • In-depth text, color, spacing, and positioning formatting 
  • Easy image uploader, with a built-in image editor 
  • Integrated royalty-free image database  
  • Video embedder 
  • Call to action buttons 
  • Social links 
  • And much more! 


Additionally, we have four preset email templates that you can leverage so you don’t have to start from scratch! 

You can learn more about the new editor in the video walkthrough:  


Currently, the new editor is available on one-off emails and we'll be expanding it to emails from automated workflows too, so stay tuned for updates there.

In the meantime, we’d love to get your feedback and questions on this release, so we can continuously improve it!
