What is the Partner Portal?

The Partner Portal is a tool designed by Urban Sports Club and Fitogram to allow you to add and manage your Urban Sports Club schedule and bookings on your own - without having to rely on our support team. With the Partner Portal you will be able to set up and edit your classes, as well as see bookings, cancellations, and check-ins in real time from either your smartphone, computer, or tablet. You can also modify your profile and your pics on ypur own. Plus, your QR code is available.

This new tool is currently in the testing phase, and only a limited number of partners can use it. However, we will continue to expand its use to more and more of our partners.

Are you already using the Partner Portal? Please log in to your Partner Portal account to access further information.

What do I use the Partner Portal for/What do I use the old partner tool for?

Since the Partner Portal is our new tool, it is still being improved and updated constantly to make sure that each component functions correctly before adding a new one. This means that for the time being you will still need to access the old partner tool for some functionalities, while others are already available through the Partner Portal.

Functionalities that are currently available in the Partner Portal:

- Profile management → edit location details, adjust opening hours, upload new pictures, access your QR code.

- Schedule management → create, update or cancel your classes directly via the Partner Portal.

- Bookings, check-ins and cancellations overview → see who booked or cancelled their booking, you can click on the event in question and see all current bookings and cancellations. Once the class time has passed you will also be able to see who checked in to your class.

Functionalities that are available in the old Partner Tool:

- Invoices→ view and download your invoices via the payouts tab

- Collective check-in overview → view all check-ins via the check-ins tab

Now that I use the Partner Portal, can I still use the old Partner Tool?

In the long term, the Partner Tool will be replaced by the Partner Portal. But for the time being, the two tools coexist. Monthly check-in overviews as well as your invoices can still be found in the old partner tool. The Partner Portal simply provides further features to improve your partner experience. Eventually, all information and actions regarding the partnership with Urban Sports Club will be available only on the Partner Portal.

Free Training is an open studio without trainer

You need Free Training if your studio is not only offering classes, but has facilities and/or equipment at your members' disposal.

For example, you manage a fitness studio and offer an area with open access to training equipment. Or maybe you have a swimming pool with an area for your members to access outside your swim classes.

Classes

When you have a regular event at a fixed given time with a special trainer, that’s what we call classes

To create your first class, press on the button '+ new Event' in the top right corner of your dashboard. In the new window opening you can then choose your event type.

Fill in all information applicable at each tab:

General

Fill in the title of your class and the number of spots available. The location is set automatically for now and the trainer is not displayed on the Urban Sports Club app yet.

Details

Choose a sports category, which will determine under which filter Urban Sports Club members will find your classes, i.e. Yoga, Pilates, or Fitness. Describe your event and additional information that is important for the member to know before booking a spot. The picture of the class is not yet available on the Urban Sports Club app but is still taken from your old profile settings in the original partner tool.

Schedule

Under schedule, you determine the different times your class takes place and how often it is repeated. If you for instance have the same class twice during the week at different times you can add another timeslot.

Once you filled in all the necessary details, please don’t forget to save your changes. If you have forgotten any information, you will receive an error message with the missing details. Check all tabs and try again.

How can I access all my events at once?

You can find all your active and inactive events in one, to quickly find what you are looking for.

To access the events list select ‘Event overview’ from the menu bar on the left hand side.

The event overview will open up. You will see three different columns:

  • Active: In this column, you can find all your currently active events. Meaning, events with planned dates in the future.

  • Inactive: Here, you can find all your inactive events. An event is inactive as soon as it doesn’t have any future dates planned.

  • All: In this list, you can find all events, active and inactive.

Each event is shown with the name, the event category when the next event will take place, who the trainer is, and the location of the event

Depending on how many events you have created, you can jump to the next page at the bottom of the page.

By using the filter function, you can easily filter your event list. Select the button “Filter” in the right corner and you can choose between a trainer and location. By selecting the category it will open up in a drop-down and you can select the filter. When done, select “Apply” to apply the filter.

How does Check-In work for Urban Sports Club Members?

For Urban Sports Club members, there is no difference in how they check in with you, as they still need to scan the QR code when they arrive at your studio.

However, there are several use cases that can occur:

  • The member has booked a place via the Urban Sports Club app

When the Urban Sports Club member books a place via the Urban Sports Club app, this will be displayed immediately on the Partner Portal.

On the Partner Portal, any member that checked in via QR Code will be marked with a checkmark on the right side next to the name automatically.

-The icon is a red cross: Your member did not attend the course, check in is no longer possible.

-The icon is a yellow circle: Waiting for member registration, as soon as your member has checked in with the Urban Sports Club application, he/she will be considered as present.

-The icon is a green marker: Your member has been successfully checked in.

  • The member has not booked a place via the Urban Sports Club app and cannot check-in using the QR code

Can I manually check members in through Partner Portal?

No, the Partner Portal is not meant to be used for manual check-ins. If you require a member to be manually checked in, please refer to the steps explained here.
