Questions

Answers Before You Ask

The things every school owner wants to know before switching.

Yes — 90 days, completely free, no card required. Sign up and run real classes, billing, and check-ins from day one. We'll remind you before the trial ends; you only add a card when you decide to keep going.
$99/month, flat — one plan, everything included, with unlimited students and 1,000 text messages a month. On top of that, a 1% platform fee (capped at $200/month) applies to the payments you process, and Stripe's processing is passed through at cost with no markup. No per-student or per-instructor charges, and no add-on fees for the kiosk, analytics, QR code generator, staff or member portal. Schools with active NMAO Accreditation pay $0/month — the monthly fee is fully waived, leaving only the 1% platform fee (capped at $200).
You connect your own Stripe account and pay Stripe's standard rate (about 2.9% + 30¢) at cost — we never mark it up. On top of that, NMAO charges a 1% platform fee, capped at $200/month so it never balloons as you grow. That's the whole story — no hidden processing margin, which is how most competitors quietly pad their bill.
You connect your own Stripe account, so your students' payments go straight to your bank on Stripe's normal schedule. NMAO never holds, touches, or delays your revenue — your money is always yours, in your account, not ours.
Yes. Import your student roster, plans, and family accounts by CSV, and we'll personally help you get set up so you're not starting from scratch.
Built by an active school owner and run every day at real schools. Belt systems, rank promotions, belt tests, family accounts, session packs, and kiosk check-in are core — not generic gym software with a karate sticker on it.
Yes. Your dashboard, member portal, and public booking page carry your school's name, colors, and logo — so to your students and families, it looks like your school, not ours.
Every plan includes 1,000 text messages a month. Beyond that it's 3¢ per message, billed at cost — never marked up.
All payments run through Stripe, a PCI-compliant processor used by millions of businesses. NMAO never sees or stores card numbers — your members' payment details stay locked in Stripe, never in our database.
Yes. No long-term contracts and no cancellation fees — cancel whenever you like, and your data stays exportable on the way out.
