One link. Members sign up, e-sign waivers, and pay — all in under 2 minutes. You set it up once, AI does the rest. **Features:** - One link to register: Share a single link. Members sign up, pick their tier, e-sign waivers, and pay — all in under 2 minutes. - AI does the setup: Describe what you need in plain English. AI generates program descriptions, liability waivers, photo releases, and custom registration fields. - Secure by default: Powered by Stripe Connect with PCI Level 1 compliance. End-to-end encryption, 3D Secure authentication, and fraud detection built in. ### Memberships URL: https://gohurdle.com/product/memberships Memberships that pay for themselves: member prices on every class, one plan for the whole family, and billing that recovers failed cards on its own. A payment plan ends after the last installment. A membership bills until someone cancels. **Features:** - Member price, or included at $0, on any class, camp, or appointment pack. Both prices show on the website, at checkout, and in the member app. - Household coverage charges once and applies the member price to the whole family. Individual coverage charges each person. - Membership levels (for example Bronze, Silver, Gold), each with its own price and optional appointment credits. New credits are added every billing period, and unused credits carry over. A level can include more than one allowance. - Monthly or yearly memberships, and weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly class dues. - Bill every member on one day of the month, or save cards now and start charging on a future date. - Pause until a date, or with no end date. Members can pause themselves when you allow it, up to a cap you set. - A minimum term starts when that person enrolls. An early termination fee is offered, never charged on its own. - A failed card is retried, and the family gets a link to update their card. The person still counts as a member while retries run. - At-risk members (past due, cancelling, or not attending) show on the dashboard and in Ask AI. - Processing fees can be passed through at the rate for the card or bank account actually charged. - Optional reminder email five days before each renewal. - Cap a membership at a number of households or members. ### Communication URL: https://gohurdle.com/product/communication One inbox for everything.

Your success shouldn't increase your costs. Flat pricing means you can grow without worrying about your software bill. **What's the catch with no transaction fees?** There isn't one. We make money from subscriptions, not by skimming your revenue. You pay Stripe directly for card processing at their standard rates. **What are AI credits?** Credits power AI features like the assistant, smart scheduling, team formation, and market intelligence. Core includes 3,000/month, Premium includes 10,000/month.

One-time implementation fee starting at $199, quoted to data size and scope. Mapping and cleaning take a few days. Payment token transfer usually takes 5 to 10 business days. The website can take new members while cards are still moving. Existing billing flips once cards are on file, then the old platform comes down. **What we move:** customer and household records, programs and pricing, enrollments and rosters, payment and transaction summaries, saved payment methods, website and content, schedule and venues, forms and waivers, tags and leads. **Source platforms:** Jackrabbit, TeamSnap, SportsEngine, Mindbody, iClassPro, LeagueApps, PlayMetrics, WellnessLiving, and 40+ other platforms in youth sports, class-based youth activity, fitness and wellness, and recreation. **Payment token transfer:** A processor-to-processor migration into Stripe. The processor behind your current software sends stored card tokens; we match each token to the household in Hurdle. That usually takes 5 to 10 business days. We confirm processor support before kickoff. If the processor cannot send tokens, Hurdle runs a card-collection campaign instead (98% of families save a card within 5 days). The public site goes live for new members first. Existing registrations and subscriptions activate after cards are on file. Then the legacy platform is turned off. **How it works:** - Day 1 (You): Send exports. CSV, login, or API key. - Days 1–3 (Hurdle): Map and clean. Import, match, sanitize. - 5–10 days (Hurdle): Move cards. Tokens, or a collection campaign. - Go live (Hurdle): Publish the site. New bookings come through Hurdle. - Cutover (Hurdle): Activate billing. Existing registrations go live. - Last (You): Retire the old platform. Turn off the legacy software. **Questions:** Q: What does the $199 implementation fee include? A: A specialist-led move of customer records, programs, enrollments, payment summaries, website content, and saved cards onto Hurdle. $199 starts a small account. Larger exports and token transfer are quoted after we see your data. Q: How does payment token transfer work? A: If the processor can send tokens, they go to Stripe and we match each one to a household. That usually takes 5 to 10 business days. Recurring billing starts after cards are on file. We confirm processor support before kickoff. If they cannot send tokens, we run a card-collection campaign instead. 98% of families save a card within 5 days. Q: What do families need to do during the switch? A: If we transfer tokens, nothing. If we collect cards instead, they tap a secure link and save the card already on file. Collection campaigns reach 98% of families within 5 days. Q: How does this relate to Core and Premium? A: Migration is a one-time project. After launch you run Core or Premium as your monthly plan. Q: Which platforms do you migrate from? A: Jackrabbit, TeamSnap, SportsEngine, Mindbody, iClassPro, LeagueApps, WellnessLiving, and dozens of others. If you can export it, we can usually map it. Q: How long does a migration take? A: Mapping and cleaning take a few days. Token transfer is usually 5 to 10 business days, depending on the processor. The website can take new members while cards are still moving. Existing billing flips once cards are on file, then the old platform comes down. Q: What happens to my public website? A: We rebuild it on Hurdle with your logo, photos, copy, and programs. New members register there. Existing families move over once cards are on file. Q: Can I import a CSV myself? A: Yes. Self-serve member import is available. The $199 service moves the catalog, enrollments, cards, and site, then launches. --- ## Guides & Resources ### Playbooks URL: https://gohurdle.com/playbooks The youth sports admin's operating manual — practical guides for running your organization. ### Payment Collection Guide URL: https://gohurdle.com/playbooks/payment-collection Stop chasing parents for registration fees.
