The fitness challenge app: full feature set
When our clients ask, we listen. Multiple fitness studios asked us for a feature to make it easy to host fitness challenges for their members.
So we designed the challenge feature: a beautiful, clean, modern and intuitive app for your members to sign up to and track any challenge.
The challenge app feature has been introduced into Hapana’s offering, and trialed with amazing results. Here’s the full list of features that have been released (but watch this space - there’s many more to come).
How it works
Hapana’s fitness challenge app is designed to streamline the process of creating and managing studio challenges, ensuring easy creation, flexible starts, and effective goal tracking. With easy billing and aesthetically pleasing metrics, it will make your members feel connected, have fun, help them smash their goals, and stay looped into the community.
Main features
Challenge Configuration
Creating a studio challenge can be hard to track, difficult to maintain traction, and almost impossible to run in tangent to other in-studio offers. Hapana streamlines challenges, offering easy creation, flexible starts, and effective goal tracking.
- Defined durations, goals, metrics, and customizable settings
- Schedule timed launches with countdowns or activate instantly
- Customizable templates for specific workout or attendance goals
- Add objectives and prompt members to log their achievements
- App banners target specific stages of the challenge
- Business reporting tools giving insight into challenge statistics
- Ability to sign up to challenges at a specific location or via an HQ account (for revenue to flow to HQ)
- Fixed and rolling versions of the challenges
- Fixed – starting on a specific date for a fixed period. Pre-purchase or enroll in a fixed challenge with a countdown timer until the challenge begins.
- Rolling – starting on purchase for a fixed period (consider a dynamic challenge that a member is enrolled into when purchasing an intro offer).
