Take card payments from clients in the text that delivers the workout.
As a new trainer learning the business, setting up client billing can be really challenging. I needed help.
Set up what you sell once. When you deliver a workout to Sam, add the pay link and it goes out at the end of the same text. Sam pays by card on Stripe’s checkout page, and a receipt lands in your conversation with Sam.
What actually happened
The pay link went out in the delivery text
The link is created when you tap Deliver and goes out as the last line of the workout text, so Sam gets one message.
Sam paid by card on Stripe
The link opens Stripe Checkout in Sam’s browser, with nothing to install. The money settles in your own Stripe account after Stripe’s card fee and a 5% Clear Mornings fee.
The receipt landed in your conversation
When the payment cleared, a receipt posted in your thread with Sam and a Monthly chip appeared in Sam’s header.
Send the pay link in the same text as the workout.
Set up a monthly rate, a session pack or a one-time program once. When you deliver a workout, add the pay link and it goes out as the last line of the text. Your client pays by card through Stripe, and the receipt lands in your thread with them.
Stripe handles the card and takes its processing fee. Clear Mornings keeps 5% of each charge, and the rest settles in your Stripe account.
Frequently asked questions
What can I charge for?
Monthly coaching, a session pack or a one-time program. You set the name and the price once on the Payments page and send any of them to any client. Prices are in US dollars, from $0.50 to $10,000.
What do I need before I can send a pay link?
A Stripe account connected from the Payments page. Connecting takes about five minutes, and Stripe asks for your identity and a bank account.
Does Clear Mornings take a cut?
Yes. Clear Mornings keeps 5% of each charge, and Stripe’s card processing fee comes out separately. The price of your Clear Mornings plan stays the same.
What if a client does not pay?
Nothing is charged until they pay. Their billing card shows the link as sent and unpaid, and from there you can resend the same link or send a different offer.
Does a client need the app to pay?
No. The link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser on their phone, and they pay by card there.
Does monthly coaching renew on its own?
Yes. Stripe bills the card every month until the subscription is cancelled. If a payment fails, Stripe retries the card and the client’s page shows Past due.
