Payment processing for boutique fitness & studios in Dallas
Dallas boutique fitness & studios use Enterprise Pay Gateway to take booking deposits, sell prepaid packages, bill monthly memberships and email invoices. Card payments run through your own Stripe account, funds settle straight to your bank on America/Chicago reporting, and you pay a fixed monthly subscription plus a platform fee from 0.20% to 0.75% — Stripe's processing fee is billed separately by Stripe.

What Dallas boutique fitness & studios are dealing with
Franchise and multi-site operators that want per-location reporting under one platform account.
Involuntary churn from failed cards
Members rarely quit at the moment their card fails; they quit because nobody recovered the payment. Retries and a billing portal recover most of it automatically.
Class packs expire uncollected
Packs sold at the desk in cash or by transfer are hard to track. Selling them as products records the purchase and the revenue in one place.
Late-cancel policies are not enforced
Without a card on file, the policy is a suggestion. With one, it is automatic and applies equally to everyone.
Freezes and pauses handled by hand
Pausing and resuming memberships manually causes billing mistakes that cost trust. Scheduled billing with a portal removes most of them.

Benchmarks
- Typical membership
- $99–$249/month
- Recurring fit
- Very high
- Late-cancel cost
- 1 capped spot
Recurring by default, which makes involuntary churn from failed cards the largest recoverable revenue leak in the category.
Memberships, class packs on auto-renew and add-ons all bill on a schedule.
A no-show in a capped class cannot be resold. A card on file with a published policy changes behaviour immediately.
What it costs
Pricing is identical everywhere — no city or state surcharge. Plans start at $49.00 per month plus a 0.75% platform fee on card volume, and Stripe's own processing fees are charged separately so nothing is hidden inside a blended rate.
Your account defaults to the America/Chicago timezone, so daily takings and payout reports line up with your trading day in Dallas.
Common questions
- Can a studio bill memberships automatically?
- Yes. Memberships are recurring products billed on a schedule, with automatic retries on a declined card and a billing portal where members update details or cancel.
- Can we charge a late-cancellation fee?
- Yes, when the member agreed to the policy at signup. Charge the published amount against the card on file and keep the fee proportionate to the class price to avoid disputes.
- How do class packs work?
- Sell the pack as a one-off product through hosted checkout. The full amount is collected up front and the member redeems classes over time.
- What does it cost?
- Stripe's processing fee plus a platform fee. Enterprise Pay Gateway charges $49 to $199 a month plus 0.75% down to 0.40%, with negotiated pricing for multi-site operators.
