Mentor overview

Weekly class limit

Free mentor and studio accounts include 1 scheduled session per week, from Monday to Sunday in the account timezone (UTC if none is set). Each group class, private lesson or event date counts separately across all classes and locations, including dates in drafts. Recurring schedules can run once per week on Free. Cancelled sessions do not count. Bookings within a session are unlimited. Upgrade to Pro or Premium to schedule more than 1 session in a week. Existing scheduled sessions and bookings stay in place after a downgrade; adding more sessions requires an upgrade.

A mentor account is for independent teachers who run classes under their own name. You get a public profile, your own schedule and prices, payments that go straight to you, and a dashboard that shows what needs your attention. It is free to start, and there is no commission on bookings on any plan.

What it costs

Nothing to start. On the Free plan you can list classes, take bookings and get paid by card or by any other method you set up. You keep 100% of what students pay, minus Stripe's card fee on card payments.

The paid plans add business tools:

• Pro at $9.99 a month ($99 a year): financials and expenses with CSV export, class packs and group packages, promo codes, online classes on Google Meet or Zoom, the ID verified badge, the video library, and no ads on your profile.
• Premium at $19.99 a month ($199 a year): everything in Pro, plus memberships, the embed widget for your own website, retreats with payment plans, and up to 50 promo codes.

• As needed: answer private session requests and update your schedule.
