For Classes & Courses
Manage recurring sessions, handle waitlists, reduce no-shows, and take direct bookings around the clock. Pay zero commissions on every booking you take through your own channel.
The Challenge
64% of online bookings are made outside business hours. While you're teaching, travelling between sessions, or simply offline, potential students are trying to register. And if there's no easy way to book, they move on.
Running classes and courses also means constant schedule management: returning students who want to book a series, popular workshops that fill up fast, a waitlist you're managing in your head, gift vouchers for occasions, and no-shows that cost you revenue you'd already planned around.
Without the right system, you're handling all of this manually: spreadsheets for attendance, text messages to waitlisted students, a phone call to process a gift voucher. Hours of admin every week that add nothing to what you actually deliver. And if any of those bookings come through a commission-based platform, a percentage of every one leaves before you've counted it. At the end of a busy term, those commissions add up to real money.
Recurring schedules managed automatically. Easily add new classes, special events, or sessions. Waitlists are captured and notified. Reminders sent to reduce no-shows. Gift vouchers sold online at no extra cost. And 100% of your direct booking revenue staying in your account.
How It Works
1
List your classes, workshops, or events with session times, capacity limits, and pricing. Configure recurring schedules so your timetable is always visible and bookable. Enable gift vouchers and multi-session passes. Set your cancellation policy once. Nabooki enforces it automatically from then on.
2
Accept registrations from your website and social media at any hour. Capacity is tracked in real time. When a session fills, waitlisted customers are captured automatically and notified if a spot opens. Confirmations, reminders, and review requests go out without you lifting a finger.
3
Every person who books directly is added to your customer database: their contact details, booking history, and any notes you capture. Promote new courses to past participants. Turn one booking into a long-term student relationship, with no intermediary owning that connection.
Your booking page is open 24/7. Students can register for a session at 11pm on a Sunday without needing to call or email you. Every direct booking they make carries no commission, just your fixed monthly subscription, regardless of how many bookings come through.
More bookings captured, more revenue kept. Your busiest month shouldn't also be your most expensive one.

Set up your weekly or fortnightly class schedule once and it runs automatically. Update availability for individual sessions without touching your whole timetable. Manage capacity across a full term without a spreadsheet in sight.
Your schedule is always accurate and always bookable, even when you're mid-session.
.avif)
Nabooki sends automated email and SMS reminders to registered students before each session. Fewer no-shows means better utilisation of your capacity and less revenue lost to empty spots you could have filled from a waitlist.
The bookings you've already taken actually show up.
.avif)
When a session reaches capacity, your booking page automatically switches from Book Now to a Waitlist button. Students register their interest, and when a cancellation creates a spot, you confirm them directly from your calendar. They receive a notification the moment you do and their session is secured.
Demand that would otherwise disappear is captured and converted. Every cancelled spot has a replacement ready to take it.
.avif)
Sell term passes or class packs directly through your booking page. Customers pay the full pass price upfront and have the flexibility to book each session individually whenever it suits them. Each booking deducts one session from their pass balance. If they cancel a session, it's automatically returned to their balance. You set the expiry window, so passes stay active without being open-ended.
Payment is collected once, upfront. Students commit to a series. You're not chasing session-by-session bookings.
.avif)
Enable gift voucher sales and product add-on sales on your booking page. Classes and workshops are a popular gift for birthdays, corporate events, and occasions. Vouchers are sold and redeemed online, with no additional platform fees beyond your subscription.
Capture gift-buyer demand without any manual processing, and without giving up margin.
.avif)
Run early bird pricing to fill sessions faster. Create promo codes for closed groups or loyalty offers. Adjust pricing for peak periods or special events. All of it managed from one place, without updating multiple systems.
Promotional pricing that drives bookings, not extra admin.
.avif)
Direct bookings through your Nabooki page carry no commissions. A simple monthly subscription is all you pay on your direct channel, whether you run two sessions a week or twenty. The more you grow your direct audience and referral business, the better the economics get, because your platform cost stays flat while your revenue scales.
As your classes grow, your software cost doesn't.

Nabooki powers tourism marketplace programs including South Australia's Coast is Calling, giving operators professional booking infrastructure with government backing. We serve everyone from solo operators to major attractions, with the same commitment to independence and control.

The Cost of Waiting
Missed bookings when customers call and you're unavailable
Commission payments eating into your margins
No customer database for repeat business or off-season promotions
Less flexibility to adjust schedules and availability when you need it
Success Story
A student signs up for your six-week course at 10pm on a Tuesday. They get an automated confirmation, a reminder before each session, and a review request the day after the final class. They leave a five-star review. None of that required you to do anything. You were teaching.
That's the compound effect of owning your customer database. Every class you run adds to it. Every repeat enrolment and referral grows from it.
No commissions, no algorithm changes, no restrictions.
