Modern gym with members working out on equipment
Built for Gyms & Fitness Centers

Gym POS software that handles memberships, classes, and payments

Cultcha is the all-in-one point of sale and membership management platform built for gyms and fitness centers. Scheduling, check-in, billing, and reporting in a single system.

Why Cultcha for gyms

Every feature your gym needs to run efficiently, all without stitching together a dozen different tools.

Recurring memberships

Set up weekly, monthly, or annual memberships with automatic Stripe billing. Handle upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations without manual effort.

Class scheduling

Publish your full timetable online. Members book classes, join waitlists, and receive reminders automatically. Capacity limits enforced in real time.

QR check-in

Members scan a QR code on arrival to check in instantly. Track attendance, monitor peak hours, and identify no-shows at a glance.

Digital waivers

Collect signed liability waivers during signup. Waivers are stored against each customer profile so you always have them on file.

Prepaid class packs

Sell 5-packs, 10-packs, or custom bundles for casual visitors. Credits are tracked per customer and deducted automatically at check-in.

Customer app & portal

Give members a branded portal to view bookings, manage their membership, update payment details, and purchase packs on their own.

One platform, zero hassle

Stop paying for five subscriptions to run one gym. Cultcha consolidates your entire operation.

  • Replace separate tools for billing, scheduling, waivers, and POS with a single platform.
  • Accept tap-to-pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and online payments through Stripe.
  • Get real-time reporting on revenue, attendance, and membership growth.
  • Onboard new members in under a minute with streamlined digital signup.

How it works

Get your gym set up and running on Cultcha in three simple steps.

1

Create your account

Sign up in minutes. Add your gym details, set up locations, and connect your Stripe account to start accepting payments immediately.

2

Configure your offerings

Build your class timetable, create membership tiers, set up prepaid packs, and upload your digital waiver. Everything in one dashboard.

3

Open your doors

Share your booking link, print your QR check-in code, and start processing members. Your gym runs smoother from day one.

What a gym actually spends its admin on

Almost none of it is the workout. It is a member whose card declined three weeks ago and nobody noticed, a casual visitor paying by bank transfer, a class that says it has two spots when it has none, and a front desk that has to open three systems to answer one question.

Cultcha puts the membership, the class schedule, the door and the till on one record. A membership bills weekly, fortnightly, monthly or annually through your own Stripe account; a failed charge moves straight into a retry schedule you set, with the balance visible on the member's row rather than buried in a report; and the same screen takes the payment when they come in to settle it.

The counter sells everything else from the same catalogue — casual entry, a ten-class pack, a shaker bottle, a gift card — so the day reconciles as one set of numbers instead of a POS export and a billing export that never quite agree.

Whatever shape your gym trades in

24/7 and access-controlled gyms

Memberships that bill on their own schedule, QR check-in at the door, and a live list of who is in the building. A member in arrears is flagged where staff will see it, and the club decides whether that stops them at the door.

Class-led studios and functional fitness

Timetabled classes with capacity, waitlists and recurring sessions. Members book in the app; coaches take the roll on a phone; no-shows and attendance are on the member record.

Personal training and small group

Sell blocks of sessions as prepaid packs that redeem at check-in, or bill them as a membership. Trainers see who has credit left without asking the office.

Gyms with a cafe or pro shop

A full retail and food POS on the same till — modifiers, bump screen, stock counts — so the protein shake and the membership are one transaction and one report.

Frequently asked questions

Does Cultcha handle recurring gym memberships?

Yes. Set up weekly, fortnightly, monthly, or annual memberships with automatic Stripe billing, minimum contract terms, suspensions and pauses, and scheduled cancellations — all handled automatically.

Can members book classes and check themselves in?

Yes. Members book classes and join sessions from a branded app or portal, and check in on arrival by scanning a QR code. Capacity limits are enforced in real time.

Can I sell more than just memberships?

Yes. Sell casual and general-entry passes, prepaid class packs, retail products, and gift cards alongside memberships — all from the same POS.

How do members pay?

Through your own connected Stripe account — tap, chip, and contactless in person with Stripe Terminal, or online via the customer portal, at Stripe’s standard rates.

What happens when a member’s card fails?

The charge moves into a retry schedule you configure — every few days for a set window, or on specific days. The member is emailed, the balance shows on their membership, and staff can take payment on the card on file, in person, or from account credit at any point. You choose whether an unpaid membership is eventually paused, and after how many overdue cycles.

Can members put a membership on hold?

Yes. Holds can be taken by staff or by the member in the app, with a yearly allowance and a minimum length if you set one. Billing is deferred by the time actually paused, so nobody is charged for a month they were away.

Do you support minimum contracts and notice periods?

Yes — both, as club-wide rules or per plan. A member is shown the resulting end date before they confirm a cancellation, so there is no argument about it later.

Can we charge a joining fee or a late fee?

Yes. A joining fee is a product on the first sale; a late fee can be added automatically after a set number of missed payments and is reported separately from subscription income.

Does it work with our card reader?

Cultcha runs on any browser or tablet and pairs with Stripe Terminal readers (WisePOS E, S700, S710) for tap and chip. Online payments need no hardware at all.

Can we migrate our existing members?

Yes. Members, plans and balances can be imported, and a member can save a card themselves from the app or at the counter, so the first billing run is clean.
