Clovo is a boutique fitness studio software that automates scheduling, payments, and client management for Australian studios, charging only a 1% fee on Stripe transactions instead of monthly subscriptions.
What is Clovo?
Clovo is a cloud-based platform for boutique group fitness studios to manage class schedules, accept payments, and build a branded client community. It ingests studio branding, class timetables, and staff profiles, and outputs custom-branded booking apps, a mini landing page at yourstudio.clovo.app, and an embedded schedule widget. The platform runs on web (desktop) and mobile (iOS/Android) with a unified admin and client app.
Key Features
- Scheduling with auto-open — Set how many days ahead to auto-generate classes; popups, cancellations, and substitute trainers are handled automatically.
- Custom-branded booking apps — Upload logo, primary colour, and typography in Clovo Studio; the mobile app and web booking surfaces apply your brand (custom deployments for enterprise).
- Staff & team management — Separate roles for owners, admins, trainers, and front desk staff; per-trainer public profiles with weekly schedule, rating, and access controls.
- One-off & recurring payments — Accept credit packs, memberships, and direct bookings via Stripe; daily payouts on a 2-day rolling basis with instant payout option.

yourstudio.clovo.app that syncs schedule, trainers, memberships, and shop; mobile-first and shareable as a single link.

Yes, you can sign up and use the platform without any upfront fee. You only pay when you start accepting payments — then 1% is added to your Stripe transaction fee.
What payment processor does Clovo use?
Clovo integrates with Stripe. All payments are processed through Stripe, and payouts are made daily on a 2-day rolling basis. Instant payouts are also available.
Do I need a separate app for staff?
