It combines class scheduling, membership management, payment processing, and member engagement into a single system — replacing the stack of disconnected tools most studios rely on. Studio owners can manage group classes, private sessions,and courses, with automated billing, recurring memberships, and Stripe payment processing running in the background. Members book and manage their accounts through a custom-branded iOS and Android app that carries the studio's own identity — not Vibefam's. Beyond the basics, Vibefam includes ClassPass integration, WhatsApp and SMS-native AI booking so clients can reserve spots through chat, real-time floor plan and equipment spot selection for specialist studios, hardware gym access control, and live dashboards for attendance and revenue reporting.
