We created OpenGym with the intention of making signing up as easy and fast as possible, for both facility owners and users alike. We’re proud to have you here, now let’s get you started!

Navigate to OpenGym Owner Dashboard

First and foremost, open your web browser of choice (Chrome/Safari/Firefox/Edge/Opera/etc.) and navigate to the owner’s side of OpenGym by typing owner.opengym.club into your browser’s search bar. Feel free to click this link as well.

Now for the easy part!

Get Started

Upon load, you are now on the OpenGym Owner home page, where you should see a big orange “Get Started Now” button. Click on the button and you will be redirected to our Log In page, where we can start making an account! You can also hit “Sign Up” in the top right corner. If you have an existing account, you can log in here, but we will be making a brand new account for anyone just joining us!

Log In Page

Sign Up with Google or Create an account

We have two options when signing up.

Option #1:

At the top of the page there is an option to sign in with Google. If you click this button, a small window will pop up, prompting you to sign in with an existing Google account. Your browser might have this information stored making your life a little easier, but if not, you can proceed to sign in with your credentials (Note: This information is solely exchanged between you and Google).

Option to Log In with Google

Option #2:

Underneath the Log In button, there is a link to Sign Up for an account. When clicked, the page will refresh to our Sign-Up form. Here you fill out a few fields such as your first and last name, email, phone number, and password for your OpenGym account. Don’t forget to check the box after reading our Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions. Hit the Create Account button to wrap up, and we’ve created your OpenGym account! Woohoo!

Stripe Onboarding

Stripe onboarding is the process by which a person or business sets up an account with Stripe, a payment processing platform that allows businesses to accept payments from their customers. We use Stripe to securely process payments from customers, verify your identity and gym ownership, and process your instantaneous reservation payouts.

Stripe Onboarding

During the onboarding process, you’ll provide some information such as your business’ or individual facility’s name, address, and banking information so that Stripe can verify its identity. You may also need to provide some additional documentation, such as a copy of an ID or a business license. Provide a few additional details about your facility, link your bank account or credit card for payouts, and the onboarding is complete!

Note: If you are able to link your bank account through their portal on Stripe, you could be instantaneously verified! Otherwise there might be a 3–5 minute wait period, so enjoy a coffee break!

You will be redirected to Stripe for verification

Once you’re finished and verified, your business will be able to accept payments online from customers! Simple as that!
