Gym and studio software in Korat
Korat, officially Nakhon Ratchasima, is the large provincial city at the gateway to Isan, and its gyms and studios live on regulars rather than on passing visitors. Members are mostly local, they pay by the month, and they talk to the studio on LINE.

Training businesses in Korat
A Korat studio fills with people who work or study in the city: students after lectures, office staff before or after the working day, parents once the school run is over. They come at fixed hours and stay for years as long as the schedule does not keep shifting.
The business follows from that. Where a resort town sells single visits, a studio here sells monthly memberships and cards of visits, and the work that matters is renewal: noticing in time that a member's plan is about to end, and getting in touch before they drift away.
Thai comes first at the desk and on every screen. The owner may read English comfortably and a foreign teacher may want the English screens, but members expect to book, pay and be reminded in Thai, in the chat app they already have open all day.
The languages your customers read
The booking page and the members' web app arrive in Thai, and switch to English or another language when there is a foreign teacher, a visiting friend or an owner who reads English more easily. Your own wording, a class description for instance, remains as you typed it.
Three things that come up in Korat
Plans that end without anyone noticing
A monthly plan or a card of visits runs out on a day the desk was busy. The system warns before the pack expires, so the reminder goes out while the member is still coming, not after they have stopped.
Everyone trains at the same evening hour
Once work is over the evening class overflows while the late-morning one is half empty. Cap the places in the evening session: whoever arrives one step too late waits on a list, and is told the moment somebody cancels.
The owner is the help desk
Questions arrive on LINE all day while the owner is coaching. Confirmations and reminders go out by LINE without anyone typing, and the booking link answers the usual questions on its own.
How MoveMembers helps
- Connect your own LINE Official Account so confirmations and reminders reach members in the app they open every day.
- Sell monthly plans and visit cards from one catalogue, set their validity yourself, and let the system warn before a plan expires.
- Share one booking link in the chat and on your page: a member picks a session and is confirmed at once.
Questions owners ask
Can a Korat gym run everything in Thai?
Yes. The booking page and the members' web app open in Thai, so a member books, checks the visits left and reads reminders without any English. The software itself is available in Thai too. The texts you write yourself stay exactly as you typed them, and prices appear in baht.
How do members of a Korat studio pay?
However they prefer. Most transfer by PromptPay or hand cash to the desk, and the team keys that into the system. Anyone who likes a card pays online through the business's own Stripe account. Every payment has a numbered receipt, and a balance still owed appears on the member's record, where the desk sees it before the next session.
Does it work with LINE?
Yes. It connects to the business's own LINE Official Account, and confirmations and reminders can reach members through it as well as by e-mail. A member can also book from a link sent in the chat. The page on LINE class booking explains the setup in more detail than this one does.
What does a small Korat studio pay at the start?
Nothing for up to 20 active members, permanently, with no card on file. While under that limit, booking, the waitlist, cards of visits and numbered receipts all work in full. Beyond it, the paid plans follow the published price list, which is shown in baht.
