What is Pembee?

Pembee is class booking software for clubs, camps, courses and classes. It lets organisers publish a timetable online, take bookings and payments, manage attendance registers and message customers from a single platform. The company positions it as a replacement for spreadsheets, Eventbrite tickets and no-show chasing on WhatsApp.

According to its About page, the founders come from e-commerce, business consulting, sports coaching and software development. The idea began after they built a custom booking system for a sports club in Bristol, and they set out to make a product with a friendlier interface and built-in marketing tools.

How does Pembee work?

Setup starts with adding classes, terms, holiday breaks and pricing, plus capacity, age ranges, prerequisites and any health forms. Pembee then provides a hosted booking page that can be linked from a website, email signature, Instagram bio or QR codes at sessions. The site says initial setup takes around 10 minutes.

Customers create one account, add everyone they book for and pay in a single checkout. Staff take attendance from a phone, see live capacity and rely on automated reminders for outstanding balances. Stripe pays organisers directly, typically every 2 to 7 days.

Key features of Pembee

Pembee is organised around the way classes run. It supports terms, half-terms, multi-week blocks, session passes, drop-ins and monthly memberships, along with pro-rated mid-term joining and sibling discounts. Payment plans let organisers split a term into installments or take a deposit and balance, with failed payments retried automatically.

Operational tools include attendance registers, automatic no-show flags, custom registration and health forms, booking reminders and discount codes. Waitlists offer cancelled spots to the next person with a hold time. Premium adds cart recovery emails, ad tracking, monthly transaction reports and the option to add credit to customer accounts.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Built around recurring classes, terms, family accounts and registers rather than one-off appointments or events.
  • Flat monthly pricing from €39, with no extra charge for adding coaches or admin staff up to the plan's limit.
  • Customers book several attendees in one checkout and manage their own bookings from a self-service portal.
  • Supports card, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Klarna, plus cash reconciliation, payment plans and automatic payment retries.
  • Stripe pays organisers directly, typically every 2 to 7 days, so funds do not sit with Pembee.
  • Reviewers on the site frequently praise ease of setup and customer support, and a 30-day trial needs no credit card.

Cons

  • There is no free plan; evaluation is limited to the 30-day free trial.
  • Waitlists, Zapier, a custom web address and ad tracking are only on the Premium plan at €91 per month.
  • A 0.59% Pembee application fee applies to Stripe online payments on top of Stripe's own processing fees.
  • Standard is capped at 5 admin users and 90 days of email history, which may limit larger teams.

What does Pembee integrate with?

Pembee works with Stripe for payments and lists Zapier, Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, HubSpot and Mailchimp. HubSpot and Mailchimp connect via Zapier. Premium also supports Google Ads and GA4 tracking.

Can I move to Pembee from another booking system?

Yes. For organisers moving from Classforkids, Bookwhen, Eventbrite, Sawyer, Jumbula or a spreadsheet, Pembee says it can help import customers, attendees and active bookings. The site suggests booking a demo to see what a migration involves.

How and when do I get paid?

Card payments run through Stripe, which pays the organiser directly on a rolling basis, typically every 2 to 7 days depending on the country. Pembee states that money goes from the customer's card to the organiser's Stripe account to their bank.

Who is Pembee best for?

Pembee suits organisers of recurring activities such as dance, gymnastics, martial arts, after-school clubs, forest schools, camps, fitness studios and courses. It is less suited to one-to-one appointment scheduling, which the site says generic tools handle.
