Capacity per session
Each session has a fixed number of spots. When it fills, the booker marks it full and stops selling, so you're never squeezing a ninth person around an eight-seat bench.
Workshops and classes
Class and workshop bookings for bike shops.
Maintenance nights, wheel-building classes, beginner sessions: Velobook books fixed-time group sessions with a capacity per session and a price per attendee, from the same link your customers already use for repairs.
Reminders and the waitlist run themselves, so you set the dates and just run the session.
What's in the box
Waitlists with one-click promotion
Full sessions take a waitlist. If a spot frees up, promote the next person from the session view with one click and they're notified automatically.
Group signups
One customer can sign up several people in one go, so a pair of mates or a family isn't four separate bookings.
Automatic reminders
A confirmation at booking and reminders a week and a day out, included. Nobody forgets the class they booked a month ago.
Online payment, settled to you
Take payment at booking through your own connected provider, with funds settling straight to the shop, or leave it off and take payment on the night.
Your words, not ours
The terminology editor lets you call them classes, clinics or workshop nights, and the booker's copy follows your lead.
Off until you need it
Workshops are off by default. The booker only shows the category once you publish a session, so a pure repair shop never sees it.
How it works
For your customers
- 1
Pick a session
They choose a class and a date from your booking link, and can sign up more than one person at once.
- 2
Pay and get confirmed
Online payment if you've turned it on, settling straight to you. The confirmation lands immediately.
- 3
Get reminded
Reminders arrive a week and a day before the session, so the seats you sold are the seats that turn up.
- 4
Turn up and learn
If they can't make it, they cancel from their manage link and the spot can go to the waitlist.
For the shop
- 1
Create the workshop
A title, a list of dates and times, a capacity per session, and a price per attendee.
- 2
Watch it fill
Spots sell from your booking link, full sessions take a waitlist, and you can promote from it in a click.
- 3
Run the session
Reminders have gone out, payment is settled or waiting at the counter, and you just teach.

Questions shops ask
How many spots can a class have?
As many as you set. Each session has its own capacity, and the booker stops selling the moment it's reached.
What happens if someone cancels?
Their spot frees up, and the next person on the waitlist can take it. You promote them with one click from the session view and they're notified.
Can one person book for a group?
Yes. A customer can sign up multiple people in one booking, which is how most maintenance nights actually fill.
What if a paid attendee doesn't show?
The spot was held for them, so Velobook doesn't automatically refund it. If you choose to refund, you do it from your own payment provider's dashboard.
Do classes cost extra to run?
No. A class signup is a booking like any other: a dollar each (priced locally in your market), capped at about $100 a month, with no monthly fee and every feature included.
