For the PT floor

What a Dubai PT studio runs on

Packages

Packages with an honest balance

A 10-pack, a 20-pack, a monthly block, priced in AED. A session counts only once it’s completed, a package never goes negative, and it closes on expiry.

How PT packages work
Calendar

Every trainer's day on one calendar

Recurring bookings for the Tuesday–Thursday client, changed one session at a time. Buddy sessions take one session from each client’s package.

Trainers and schedules
Payouts

Trainers paid right, three ways

A salary, a rate per session, or a share of what they deliver, set per trainer. Month end comes from completed sessions, not a WhatsApp tally.

How PT studios pay trainers
Self-booking

Clients book from real availability

Clients pick a slot from their trainer's hours in your app. You choose whether bookings confirm straight away or wait for the trainer.

The branded app
VAT

A VAT invoice on every package

Add your TRN once and every package sale gets a tax invoice with 5% VAT, in AED. Clients pay by card in the app, or at the desk.

VAT on personal training in the UAE
Trainer app

Coaches run their day from their phone

Their sessions, each client’s balance, programs and diet plans to assign, check-ins and progress photos, and their payslips.

The trainer app
Enquiries

Instagram and WhatsApp enquiries, followed up

Every enquiry in one pipeline, today's follow-ups at the top, and a WhatsApp follow-up sequence on by default. Converting one opens the client form, filled in.

Leads and follow-ups
AI assistant

An assistant that books and answers

"Book Sara with Omar on Thursday at 7." It finds the free slot and waits for your Confirm. It also answers from your data: whose packages run out this week, what each trainer is owed.

UAE rules, in plain words

VAT, records, e-invoicing and trainers

VAT

5% on memberships, packs and PT

Registration is mandatory above AED 375,000 a year, and every sale needs a tax invoice with your TRN.

Records

Keep VAT records five years

Seven if the same records support Corporate Tax. Every invoice stays searchable and exportable.

E-invoicing

Business sales only, from 2027

Corporate memberships are in scope. Sales to individual members are not, for now.

Dubai

Registered coaches only

Dubai rules bar hiring unregistered coaches. Keep each trainer’s certifications on file.

FAQ

What Dubai studio owners ask

How does it track PT sessions and packages?

Each client’s package has a session count, a price in AED and an expiry. A session comes off the balance only when it’s marked completed, and the client sees what’s left in the app.

Can it work out trainer commissions?

Yes. Set each trainer to a salary, a rate per session or a share, and their pay for the month is worked out from the sessions they completed. The trainer sessions report exports for your accountant.

Do PT trainers in Dubai need to be registered?

Under Executive Council Resolution No. 1 of 2020, coaches and professional staff must be on the Dubai Sports Council’s register to work at a sports establishment, and the establishment must keep a record of them. Each trainer’s profile holds their certifications.

Is personal training subject to VAT in the UAE?

Yes, at 5% once you are VAT-registered. Add your TRN and every package sale gets a tax invoice in AED with VAT shown. Not registered yet? Invoices go out without VAT until you add one.

Can two clients share a session or a package?

Yes. A buddy session takes one session from each client’s package. A couple or a small group can also share one package, drawn down together.

How do I handle the Dubai Fitness Challenge rush?

Share an enquiry link before 31 October, book first-timers into a trial session, and let the WhatsApp follow-ups run. Converting the lead opens the client form already filled in, ready to sell a package.

Can I move from Trainerize, PTminder, Mindbody or a spreadsheet?

Yes. Send us the client export and we import your clients with you, then set up your trainers, packages in AED, each client’s remaining sessions and payouts on a call.

Can members pay online?

Yes — renewals and dues are paid by card in the member app, through Stripe or Nomod, settled to your own account. Cash and bank transfers are recorded at the desk.

Why is the price in US dollars?

We bill the software in US dollars. Your members pay you in AED, and their invoices are in AED.
