Creating Course Services
A Course in Pike13 is a specific type of group service designed for all-or-nothing attendance like a camp, workshop or learning series.
-
Payment: Clients pay one full fee upfront to enroll in the entire series. (e.g., $250 to enroll in all 5 days). They cannot pay for a single day or session.
-
No Makeups: If a client misses a day, there is no functionality to reschedule a single visit.
⚠️ Crucial Limitations
-
Client App: Clients cannot enroll in Courses via the Pike13 Client App. They must use a web browser (desktop or mobile) to sign up.
-
Flexibility: If you want to allow drop-ins, makeups, or flexible dates, do not use a Course. Instead, create a Class and use the Bulk Enrollment feature.
