Book for a Friend or Linked Account

Feature RequestClasses

Allow users to book classes for people linked to their account or for friends that dont have an account yet, using their credits.

Description:

  1. Add an option: "Book for someone else" to the member's app

  2. Let them select from linked accounts or choose "Someone else"

  3. If "Someone Else" capture the email and name of the person so their account can be used (or added if not existing)

  4. Charge the credits from the person who is making the booking

Benefits:

  1. Increases class attendance.

  2. Drives more credit usage.

  3. Potentially attracts new users.

  4. Enhances user flexibility and satisfaction.

Note: some clubs have memberships that include unlimited credits, yet they offer a specific number of guest passes per a billing period. We should account for that scenario as well.

    Hey @Brett Delaney I’m going to merge this post into an existing one we are working on which is called “Book a friend”.

    It’s essentially a way for a person to book on behalf of other users, so this would cover the case you want, the parent could book for others (their kids) without leaving their own account.

    I came to make a new post about this before I found your thread.

    Historically, we’ve had clients who share sessions with family members. In these cases, one client is the primary account holder, and the others are set up as dependents. On the account tab under credit packs, it would be really useful to be able to add dependents just like you can with memberships.

    It could be nice also without the name of the other client, for example for implementing a plan where you pay for someone else who can’t afford it. Sports has been proven to take young people out of the streets, but often these young people can’t afford their classes. “Gift a class” sort of option could also have a great social impact.

    Hey @Kirk Wilson what I’m hearing is you wouldn’t want to transfer the whole pack over to the other person though, only some of it, is that correct?

    In which case it sounds like just an easier way to add a session to an individual user rather than go through the whole sales process etc, is that correct?
