Key takeaways

5
  • Australian personal trainers must hold a recognised qualification (typically Certificate III + IV in Fitness, or higher) and most carry professional indemnity + public liability insurance ($10m to $20m typical). Registration via Fitness Australia is voluntary but widely expected by gyms.
  • GST treatment: personal training services are GST-taxable at 10% once turnover exceeds $75,000/year. Most starting PTs run as sole traders below the threshold and don't register for GST.
Show 3 more
  • Common pricing models: 5-pack ($300 to $600), 10-pack ($550 to $1,100), unlimited monthly ($300 to $600), small-group classes ($25 to $45/head). Package billing + automated reminders cut no-show rates significantly.
  • Common AU PT tools: Trainerize, TrueCoach (US dollars), PT Distinction, Mindbody (gym-focused; its Australian pricing page publishes in A$, per location) and Calendly (US dollars, bookings). Several of them bill in US dollars, which carries FX risk, and few include accounting.
  • OneBookPlus is the all-in-one alternative: session bookings + package billing + automated SMS reminders + GST-aware invoicing + client progress notes + Google reviews + email marketing, from $0/month (Free) to $69/month (Growth), billed in AUD.

Example walkthrough

Tuesday, six sessions and a pack top-up

An illustrative walkthrough of a typical training day

You check the dashboard before the first session. Today's sessions are on the board across your gym and outdoor locations, and the clients who booked overnight through your social link already have their confirmation emails. The at-risk tile flags the regulars you have not seen for a while, so you send them a note from the CRM before the first session starts.

Between sessions a client messages to reschedule. You find her in the CRM, see how many credits are left on her session pack, and move the booking in two taps. A credit comes off automatically when the session is marked complete, so there is no spreadsheet and no awkward how-many-do-I-have-left text.

After each session you log a short note against the client record while it is fresh. Casual clients' invoices send themselves at the end of the day, with GST and your ABN on each one.

At the weekend you review the week in one view: sessions delivered, package sales, no-show rate, review invites that went out automatically after each session, and the cohort retention bar showing how each month's signups are holding. The BAS summary keeps itself up to date.

One day, written by itself, an illustrated day of an Australian personal-training business run on OneBookPlus

An illustrated day, not real customer data. Scroll through it from morning to 5pm: the AI receptionist answers and books a missed call, the work runs from the app, the GST invoice is sent on the spot, payment lands and the books balance themselves, a review invite is queued for the next daily run, and the day closes with the ledger already written.

5:30am

While you're mid-session

The call you'd have missed, counting reps.

A new client wants to get back into training. She rings the first PT on Google, you, while you're counting reps.

AI Receptionist

Answered without dropping the count.

The AI answers in two rings, books a 9:30 am intro session and sends her the intake form, your client never notices.

Intro session

Goals, injuries and the program, already set.

Session card on your phone: goals from the intake form, injury notes, program template ready.

Between sessions

Invoiced before your next client.

She signs up for a 10-pack. One tap sends a GST invoice with a pay link, credits track themselves.

While you're at lunch

Paid, and the 10-pack credits start ticking.

Card payment lands, the books update themselves, and $77.27 GST is set aside for BAS.

Reputation on autopilot

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about personal trainer booking and management software.

What personal trainer software do Australian PTs use?

OneBookPlus is personal trainer software built for Australia, online session bookings, session-pack tracking with auto-deducted credits, client progress logging, automated SMS reminders, and GST-compliant invoicing in one app. It runs free for a small roster and scales as your client base grows, so a solo PT and a small studio use the same platform.

Can clients book PT sessions online 24/7?

Absolutely. Your branded booking page is available around the clock. Clients see real-time availability, pick a session type, choose a time, and confirm, all without calling or texting you.

Does the personal trainer booking system handle session packages?

Yes. You can create 5-pack, 10-pack, or custom session bundles. OneBookPlus tracks remaining sessions for each client and sends GST-compliant invoices when they purchase or renew a package.

How does OneBookPlus compare to Mindbody or Trainerize for personal trainers?

Mindbody is a full studio platform priced in US dollars per location, and Trainerize (like TrueCoach) is great at workout-program delivery but leaves billing and accounting to you. OneBookPlus sits in between honestly: it covers bookings, session-pack credits, client progress notes, GST invoicing and BAS-ready reporting in one Australian app from $0/mo, so independent PTs do not pay enterprise pricing or bolt on a separate invoicing tool.

Can I track client progress and workout history?

Yes, store goals, measurements, personal bests, and session notes for every client. You and your client can see their progress over time, helping keep motivation high and results visible.

Does it handle GST invoicing and BAS reporting for personal trainers?

OneBookPlus generates GST-compliant invoices with your ABN included. Income is categorised automatically, making BAS preparation straightforward, no more end-of-quarter spreadsheet sessions.

Is OneBookPlus accounting software for personal trainers, or just a booking app?

Both. Alongside session bookings and client management, OneBookPlus includes real accounting: income is categorised as invoices are paid, expenses are logged against categories like equipment, insurance and floor rent, GST is calculated on every invoice once you register, and profit-and-loss plus BAS-ready reports are built in. Most PTs use it to replace a separate Xero subscription or spreadsheet, because the money side lives in the same book as the sessions that earn it.

Your Complete Personal Trainer Workflow, From Client Booking to Business Growth

Most personal trainers got into the industry because they love training, not because they love chasing late payments, managing a calendar via text messages, or spending Sunday nights doing their BAS. OneBookPlus handles the business side of personal training so you can focus on what you do best: getting your clients results. Here's how every part of your workflow comes together in one platform.

Client Booking & Onboarding

New clients find you through Instagram, your gym's website, a Google search, or a friend's recommendation. Instead of exchanging half a dozen text messages to find a time, they land on your branded booking page and see your real-time availability across all session types, one-on-one PT, small group training, outdoor boot camp, or online coaching check-in. They pick a slot, confirm the booking, and receive an automatic confirmation with your location, parking details, and what to bring. New clients fill out an onboarding form capturing their goals, training history, injuries, medical conditions, and dietary preferences. This lands in their client profile before day one, so you can walk into the first session with a plan rather than spending thirty minutes on a clipboard. If you train at multiple locations, a gym in the morning, a park at lunch, a private studio in the evening, each location has its own availability and address shown at booking time.

Session Management & Scheduling

Your daily schedule is a clean visual calendar, so personal and client appointments never overlap. Recurring bookings, like a client who trains every Tuesday and Thursday at 6am, are templated so you set them once and they repeat until changed. Each standing weekly slot is one repeating series: the Free plan runs one at a time, and Starter at $29/mo runs as many as your book needs. One-off sessions are never capped, and a series you have already set up can always be extended, moved or cancelled. When a client needs to reschedule, they do it themselves through the booking portal within your cancellation policy window, and the freed-up slot becomes available immediately for other clients. If they cancel inside the policy window, OneBookPlus flags the late cancellation and shows you the fee to invoice, and you raise that invoice yourself. Group sessions show capacity, when your boot camp hits twelve participants, the class closes for booking. When someone cancels, the next person on the waitlist is flagged for you to follow up with, no WhatsApp group required.

Progress Tracking & Client Results

After every session, log a quick note, exercises completed, weights used, personal bests achieved, any modifications for injuries, and the plan for next time. Over weeks and months, this builds a detailed training history for each client that shows their progression. Record body measurements, weight, body fat percentage, fitness test results, and before-and-after photos at regular intervals. Clients can see their own progress through their portal, which is a powerful motivation tool, when someone can see their deadlift has gone from 60kg to 100kg over six months, they're far less likely to cancel their package. Progress data also helps you adjust programming objectively rather than relying on memory, especially when you're training twenty or thirty clients across a week.

Invoicing & Package Management

Personal training revenue typically comes in three forms: casual per-session payments, prepaid session packages, and recurring monthly subscriptions. OneBookPlus handles all three. Create packages, 5 sessions, 10 sessions, 20 sessions, with pricing and expiry rules. When a client books using a package, the session is deducted automatically. When they're running low, the system prompts them to top up. For casual clients, a GST-compliant invoice is sent after each session with your ABN, session details, and payment terms. For monthly subscribers, invoices are generated automatically on the billing date. Track who has paid, who is overdue, and your total revenue per week and month without opening a spreadsheet. BAS preparation becomes trivial because your income is already categorised and GST is calculated at the point of invoicing.

Marketing & Business Growth

Growing a personal training business comes down to two things: keeping existing clients and attracting new ones. OneBookPlus supports both. After each session, automatically request a Google review from satisfied clients, building your online reputation so that when someone searches "personal trainer near me," your five-star reviews do the selling for you. The CRM tracks how each client found you, referral, Instagram, Google, gym noticeboard, so you know which marketing channels actually drive revenue. Send targeted emails to inactive clients with a re-engagement offer, or notify your client base about a new class or seasonal challenge. Your booking page doubles as a lightweight website that showcases your services, pricing, credentials, and reviews, no need to maintain a separate site unless you want to. Every new booking, every review, and every package sale compounds into a more sustainable business, and the dashboard shows you exactly where you stand at any point.

Accounting Software for Personal Trainers: Why a Booking App Alone Isn't Enough

A personal trainer's money is messier than it looks from the gym floor. In a single week you might collect casual per-session payments, sell a 10-pack that gets consumed over three months, bill a monthly online-coaching subscription, and split a boot-camp booking across eight participants. On the expense side there's floor rent to the gym, equipment, insurance, fuel between mobile sessions, first-aid and CEC course fees, and the eternally grey question of what counts as a deductible business cost. Most PT apps stop at the booking calendar and leave the money side to you: Trainerize, TrueCoach and Mindbody all assume you run separate accounting software, so you end up paying for Xero or MYOB on top, or (more commonly) running the whole business out of a spreadsheet and a bank statement the night before your BAS is due.

OneBookPlus treats accounting as part of the job, not an add-on. Every invoice is GST-compliant with your ABN on it, and income is categorised at the moment it's paid, so casual sessions, pack sales and subscriptions each land in the right income category without a manual journal. Expenses are logged against categories that make sense for a trainer, and a receipt or supplier PDF can be scanned straight in rather than retyped, with the supplier, date, GST and total read off it. Payments you record are matched against the outstanding invoice they belong to. The result is a live profit-and-loss view: what you actually earned this week after rent and expenses, not just what your booking calendar says you were busy. The Finance features overview covers the ledger side in detail, and the bookkeeping software page explains how categorisation and reconciliation work day to day.

GST is where new trainers most often get caught. As a sole trader you don't need to register for GST until your turnover passes $75,000 a year, and most starting PTs sit below that line. But a full diary at $80 a session crosses the threshold faster than people expect, and once registered you must add 10% GST to your session prices and lodge a BAS each quarter. OneBookPlus handles both states: run GST-free while you're under the threshold, then flip GST on and every invoice, pack sale and report updates automatically, with the GST portion set aside in your BAS summary as payments land. If you're working out where you stand, the free GST calculator and BAS calculator are a good place to start, and the ATO sources at the bottom of this page cover the registration rules directly.

The practical payoff is one set of numbers. When your bookings, pack credits, invoices and expenses live in the same system, your books can't drift out of sync with your calendar, and quarter-end stops being a reconstruction exercise. If it's specifically the client-facing booking side you're researching (24/7 bookings, pack credits that debit automatically, kiosk check-in), see the dedicated online booking system for personal trainers page; this page covers the whole business, from the first booking to the BAS that follows it.
