Is Exacoach only for football academies, or gyms and personal trainers too?

All three. Sports academies use it for batches, student fees, and coaching programs. Gyms use it for memberships, renewals, and payment tracking. Personal trainers use it for client workout plans, goal tracking, and payment reminders. One platform — you only pay for what your business type needs.

We already run everything on WhatsApp and Excel. Is switching worth it?

Most owners switch when fee collection slips below 80% or they lose track of who paid. Exacoach doesn't replace WhatsApp — on Growth/Pro it can send overdue fee reminders for academies, and you can manually send payment reminders anytime. Your existing UPI QR still works; you just mark payments in one tap instead of scrolling through screenshots.

How do WhatsApp fee reminders work?

On Growth/Pro, academies get daily WhatsApp reminders for overdue fees. You can also send individual payment due or payment received messages from the dashboard. Collect phone consent during registration — most academies add a line to their sign-up form.

How long does setup take? Do I need a developer?

Most academies go live in under 15 minutes. Add your logo, create your first batch, upload your UPI QR, and import students from a spreadsheet. No coding, no IT person. We have step-by-step onboarding inside the dashboard, and our team can help over WhatsApp if you get stuck.

How much does it cost? Are there hidden fees?

Plans start from ₹799/month for all business types — sports academies, gyms, and personal trainers — billed in INR. No setup fee, no per-student charge, and no commission on your UPI collections. See the pricing section for Growth and Pro if you need WhatsApp reminders or multiple centres.

Is my student and payment data stored securely in India?

Yes. Data is hosted on secure cloud infrastructure with encryption in transit and at rest. We follow India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act guidelines. We never sell your data or use student records for advertising. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.
