How Memberships & payments works
●Product film/Memberships & payments
A failed card is rarely a member who wants to leave. It is a member nobody told, who quietly stops being a member next month.
- Finding out a payment failed at the end of the monthYou and the member are told the day it happens
- An awkward conversation at the front deskThe member fixes their card in the app in a minute
- Bank details and invoices for one-off paymentsA payment link sent by message
Everything in Memberships & payments.
Recurring memberships
Plans that renew on their own, at the prices and billing periods you set.
Passes and drop-ins
Class packs with credits, single sessions and courses, applied automatically when a member books.
Failed-payment recovery
The member gets a push and an email, follow-up nudges on day three and day seven, and a Fix payment screen in the app. Staff can send a reminder with one tap.
Payment links
Take payment for anything from someone without an account: a workshop, a deposit, a signup fee. Send the link and it is paid by card.
Gift cards and promotions
Sell gift cards, run discount codes and set offers for new or returning members.
Door access and tap-in cards
Membership status can open the door. A lapsed payment past its grace period flags at check-in for staff to decide.
Your members' money goes to your bank.
Payments are processed by Stripe and paid out to your own connected bank account. Card details are entered into Stripe's own secure fields and are never stored on Buluo's servers.

Questions about Memberships & payments
Something we have not covered? Write to hello@buluo.ie and a person will reply.
Where does the money go?
To you. You connect your own bank account through Stripe, and member payments are paid out to it on Stripe's normal payout schedule.
What happens when a member's card fails?
The member gets a push notification and an email, and you are notified too. They keep access for a three-day grace period and can update their card in the app. Reminders follow on day three and day seven.
Do members pay anything to use Buluo?
No. Members use the app for free. You set your own prices; standard Stripe processing fees apply to payments.
Can I sell class packs as well as memberships?
Yes. Memberships, credit packs, single drop-ins and courses can all be sold together and are applied automatically at booking.
