Consumers can connect the iOS and Android apps to Apple Health or Health Connect and see wearable-powered metrics directly in their reservation history.

Social Proof Threshold Control

Set how many reservations a class needs before the label appears. The default is 10 reservations. Contact support to adjust.

Hi there,

Fall is here, and so are some exciting updates to help your studio. 🍂

Hide Cancelled Appointments

Cancelled appointments are now hidden by default on the Admin Appointments schedule, so staff see only what's actually booked.

One-Click Rebooking

Addresses the friction frequent clients face when rebooking the same classes or appointments each week, despite strong repeat intent and predictable booking patterns.

A personalized home screen carousel will surface up to three upcoming class or appointment recommendations based on prior booking behavior.

Undo Membership Cancellation

When a membership has a pending cancellation request, the staff can now undo the pending cancellation and restore the membership to its original state.

Click to Cancel Update

With this update, NYC locations are compliant with the city's rule that all memberships must be cancellable online starting October 1

Wearables Integration

Consumers can connect the iOS and Android apps to Apple Health or Health Connect and see wearable-powered metrics directly in their reservation history.

SMS Usage Dashboard

The new SMS Usage Dashboard gives you a clearer view of SMS messages you're sending, directly in Mariana Tek.

You can see how many outgoing texts your studio has sent, review past usage, and better understand how your messaging changes over time—all in one place.

Advanced reCAPTCHA

Forms can use an advanced reCAPTCHA challenge, where the visitor picks images such as traffic lights, instead of the basic check.

Hi there,

Summer may be winding down, but August’s new features are here! ☀️ Take a look at this month’s updates to help your studio finish the summer strong.

Flexible Penalty Fees

Choose a penalty type for each membership contract: loss of credit, charge, both, or no fee. Limited memberships now support all four options, giving you more flexibility in how you handle penalties. Unlimited memberships support charge or no fee.

Appointments: Next Available

When your preferred day is fully booked, clients can now jump directly to the next available appointment instead of scrolling through unavailable dates. This makes it easier for clients to find an opening and complete their booking.

Appointments: Advance Booking Notice

Instructors can now require clients to book a set number of hours in advance — for example, at least 24 hours before the appointment. That gives the instructor time to prepare for the session and get there on time.

Referrals

Turn happy clients into new business with automated referral tracking and rewards. Clients can share a unique referral link, and when a referral completes your chosen goal, rewards are automatically delivered.

Interested in Referrals? Contact support for more details.

Hi there,

July is going out with a bang. From small improvements to exciting new enhancements, there's plenty to discover in this month's feature releases.

Appointments: Book Now Pay Later

Staff can now schedule appointments without applying payment upfront. Built for personal training workflows where trainers need to lock in recurring series without forcing a large credit purchase at booking time.

Appointments: Quick Creation

Trainers and studio staff can now create appointments and timeblocks directly from the Appointments schedule calendar by clicking a time slot with a pre-filled date and time.

Appointments: Visual Branding

Bring your brand to life with images for every appointment type. Images will automatically appear across the consumer app and web booking experience, creating a more engaging, visually branded schedule for clients.

Hi there,

Summer is heating up, and so are our June releases. Grab your favorite summer drink and take a look at what's new this month.

Appointments: Previously Booked

When booking an appointment, customers will see their most recently booked instructor (within the last 30 days) surfaced at the top, and labeled as previously booked.

Xplor Growth: Auto-Tasks

Automatically create and assign tasks based on a form submission.

Credit Package Categories

Credit Package Categories help manage and report on credit packages, specifically across multiple locations. Credit Package Categories are useful for:

• Making quicker edits
• Streamline setup for new studio locations
• View performances across all locations

Loyalty: Manually Update Points

Loyalty points can be manually added to or removed from a customer's account. Update points for single accounts or in bulk.

Social Proof

When customers see that others are actively booking a class, it creates a sense of confidence and demand. Social proof signals highlight recent booking activity, helping encourage customers to reserve their spot.

Xplor Growth: Phone Verification

When a phone number is added to a contact in Xplor Growth, it undergoes a verification process to confirm it can receive SMS messages. Understanding these verification states can help you identify which contacts are eligible for SMS communication.

To fix this, we’ve established Mariana Tek as the single source of truth for email updates, improving data integrity while creating a clearer, more intuitive experience for clients

Hi there,

February may be the shortest month of the year, but these updates are anything but small. This release is packed with powerful enhancements designed to make a big impact.
