Drop-in pricing
Create a one-time purchase option for individual classes or sessions.
A drop-in lets clients pay for one class at a time. No commitment, no credits — just a single charge per booking. It's your default option for walk-ins, special events, or any class where you want per-session pricing.
Drop-ins use paid (monetary) pricing — the client pays a dollar amount at booking. If the booking is cancelled or refunded, the money goes back to the client's credit card. This is different from class packages and memberships, which are credit-based — cancellations return credits to the client's account instead of dollars to their card.

Drop-in options
Standard drop-in — client pays once and has access for a single class.
Donation / sliding scale — let clients pay what they want. You can set a minimum if needed. See donation classes.
Connecting to classes
Drop-in pricing only works if it's connected to a service type. When editing a class or service type, select the drop-in pricing option as a valid payment method.
If you want a class to be drop-in only (no packages or memberships), set the class payment type to Drop-in in the class's pricing settings.
Drop-in vs. package
| Drop-in | Class pack | |
|---|---|---|
| Payment | At each booking | Upfront for multiple classes |
| Commitment | None | None (but paid in advance) |
| Best for | Occasional clients | Regular clients |
| Revenue timing | Per booking | Upfront |
Many studios offer drop-ins but price them higher than the per-class rate on a pack — this encourages clients to commit to a pack while keeping drop-ins available as an option.
