Launch Trainer Space

Use this checklist to go from an empty workspace to a shareable direct-sales page. For day-to-day navigation after launch, see Dashboard.

Prerequisites

• Author role on FitSpace — open Trainer Space signed in as the author account.
• Verification — marketplace products need confirmed verification & payouts. Trainer Space programs sold only through your offers do not require marketplace moderation, but verification still matters if you use hybrid catalog products. You do not need it to set up Trainer Space: the in-app Getting started list follows the steps below and shows verification last, because payouts need it.
• Authoring is free — create and edit products (programs, video courses, meal plans), and save a product's price as a draft offer, before subscribing. Putting an offer on sale and client operations require an active subscription or eligible trial under Billing.

Navigation map

Trainer Space uses six tabs: Dashboard · Products · Clients · Billing · Site · Settings. Legacy URLs like /programs or /offers redirect into Products.

Launch checklist

1. Create a product for free

Open Products. Creating a product needs no subscription, whatever its type:

• Custom program — modular Trainer Space delivery (chat, materials, check-ins, workouts). Use Create program in the toolbar or product picker.
• Marketplace product — video course or meal plan via Create entity for catalog discovery or a separate Trainer Space offer on that product.

Configure program modules: Programs & delivery.

2. Create the offer (set the price)

The offer, meaning the price, access and terms of a product, is its own step in the in-app Getting started list. Saving it as a draft needs no subscription for any product type: only putting it on sale does.

• Program — price, access duration, billing mode (one-time or recurring), and checkout method are fields of the program form: set them when you create the program or later with Edit. The price is required there, so saving the program creates its draft offer and this step is done at once.
• Video course, meal plan, or existing coaching product — the offer is created separately: open the product’s Sale page, which already shows the price and currency from the product (and a course’s access period), check them and save. Until then the step stays open with a Set price button.

A draft offer is not visible to buyers. Details: Offers & checkout.

3. Subscribe and put the offer on sale

Open Billing. Compare Starter / Pro / Studio, note seat and video limits, then checkout (Stripe on the primary domain, YooKassa on the RU host) or start a trial when offered. Details: Billing & limits.

For a program, the On sale switch is separate, on the program page: it appears once every step of the Program setup checklist is done and publishes the offer, which needs this subscription. Switching it on without one opens the subscription screen. For a video course, meal plan, or coaching product, On sale is an option on its Sale page and opens the subscription screen the same way.

4. Publish your landing page

Open Site → Public page. Complete brand, promise, proof, and primary CTA in the landing editor, then publish. Details: Site & domain.

5. Preview the student path

Walk through checkout and student home as a buyer would: payment confirmation → workspace access → modules (chat, materials, check-ins, workouts). Fix gaps before sharing the link.

6. Share your link

Default URL: /trainer/{your-slug}. On Pro or Studio, you can add a custom domain under Site → Custom domain.

7. Onboard the first client

This is not a step of the in-app Getting started list, which ends with the published page: clients come through your page or an invitation on their own. When payment confirms, the buyer appears under Clients. Assign check-ins if needed and open chat from the student detail page. Details: Clients, chat & check-ins.

What not to promise clients

If a capability is not shown as available in your workspace, keep it out of sales copy:

• Teams, multi-location, booking calendar, referrals, automations
• A separate white-label mobile app (clients use FitSpace)
• Features marked coming later in plan entitlements

Custom domain is available on Pro and Studio — see Site & domain. Do not promise it on Starter.

Common launch mistakes

• Creating an offer before a product or program exists.
• Publishing a landing with a CTA that points to an unpublished offer.
• Hitting seat or video limits on launch day without checking Billing → Usage.
• Using external checkout without configuring Settings & payments.
