Reserve with Google

Boost Your Online Bookings with Reserve with Google

Written by Karen Miguel Hernandez Martinez

Availability

The integration is available for Plus or Ultra plan users and requires a verified Google Business profile in the fitness category. Each location of your studio must have its own Google Business Profile to connect independently.

If you don't have a Google Business Profile, you can create one here: https://business.google.com/en-all/business-profile/

What is Reserve with Google, and How Does It Benefit your Business?

Reserve with Google allows clients to discover your studio directly on Google and Google Maps and easily book your classes and events from your website, without back-and-forth messaging.

Key Benefits:

  • Your services appear in relevant searches. Let's say you're a Pilates studio, you may appear when users search for "Pilates near me” or “Pilates studios.” Or when searching your studio name on Google.

  • Users can view your calendar, explore class, event or membership details, and book directly from your Fitune page.

  • Fitune saves customers from Reserve with Google in your CRM who create an account as “Lead Source = Reserve with Google”, so you can easily identify them.

  • Google does not charge any commission for clients coming from Reserve with Google.


Steps to Connect & Synchronise

1. From your left-hand panel, go to Reserve with Google or from Settings → Integrations → Connect. Click the “Get Started” button

2. Connect the location you want to integrate

If you have multiple locations, each one connects independently.

3. Search for and select your business name (from the pop-up)

  • If you have a verified Google Business Profile, you will be able to find it by typing its name and selecting the option that previews its address.

  • When typing your business name, the address must match exactly as the one registered in your Google Business Profile.

4. Save your changes. And done! All your classes will be synced with Reserve with Google.

Coming Soon:

Sync classes tab. Select the classes or events you want to synchronise and show on your Google Business Profile.

You may notice a section called Sync Classes in your account. While this section is already visible, the feature is not yet available for use. We’re actively working on it and expect it to be released in the coming months.

In the meantime, you can still select the classes or events you would like to display. Once this feature becomes available, your selected classes will automatically sync to your Google Business Profile.

If you have multiple locations, select the classes and events you want to connect to each location independently.

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES

  • Connecting or disconnecting classes and events may take up to 24 hours to reflect on your Google Business Profile.

  • Connecting or disconnecting a location may take up to 24 hours to reflect on your Google profile.

  • Only physical addresses can be connected; virtual locations are not supported.



❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does the user need to create an account to book?

✅ Yes. When booking, they will be asked to create a Fitune account.

Do Reserve with Google clients need a Google account or Google app to book?

❌No, clients don’t need a Google account or the app to book via Google Reserve. Since they come from your Google Business Profile and land on your website, they are treated as regular clients: they can explore your entire site, and when they’re ready to book or purchase, they’ll be prompted to create an account. This means that if they make a booking, you can mark their attendance, cancel, or reschedule it, and if they purchase a membership, you can manage or cancel it. In short, they function just like any regular Fitune client.

Can I know if a client comes from Reserve with Google?

✅ Yes. If users come from your Google Business Profile and then create an account from your Fitune website to book or purchase, they'll automatically be added to your Fitune CRM with the "Lead source = Google Reserve" on their profile.

  • This will not apply if the client already exists in your CRM.

  • Google Reserve clients will have the Google logo next to their name across Fitune pages, so you can distinguish them from the rest, just like Wellhub or TotalPass clients.

  • If you have clients from this integration, you can find them in the Contact Details report by filtering “Lead Source = Google Reserve” and applying a date range. If this option does not appear, it means there are no clients with that source within the selected period.

Does Google charge commissions for Reserve with Google clients?

❌ No. Reserve with Google doesn't charge anything for users who end up creating an account, making a booking, or purchasing.

Do Fitune’s cancellation policies apply?

✅ Yes. Clients who book through Reserve with Google follow your Fitune cancellation policies. If you have penalty fees configured, clients who

  • Have a card on file, will be charged the penalty fee automatically.

  • Do not have a card on file, will get an offline invoice generated that they can pay when they log back into your web/client app (depending on your settings).

Can I connect virtual locations?

No. Reserve with Google only allows physical addresses to be connected.

What if my studio has multiple locations?

✅ Since Google Business Profiles are created per location, you can connect each location and synchronise its classes/events independently. The client will be redirected to your Fitune website with the specific location from which they searched on Google.

Can I connect secret classes or events?

You can connect them from Fitune, but they will not appear on your Google Business Profile. We display them on the list, so you're aware of your secret classes and can consider making them visible (not secret) from the Products Classes → Edit → Visibility.

Do my bookings get cancelled automatically if I disconnect my location or classes/events from the Reserve with Google integration?

❌ No. Previously made bookings and clients remain intact upon disconnection of locations, classes, or events. However, if you disconnect them, they won't be displayed in your Google Business Profile for new bookings or purchases anymore.

Why aren't my changes reflected in my Google Business Profile?

  1. Changes may take up to 24 hours to be reflected after saving them. Therefore, if that time hasn't passed, it's expected that they're not reflected.

  2. If it's been more than 24 hours after your changes, please contact our Fitune support team.
