Deposit & balance flows · extras & accommodation · consent & screening · scheduled participant emails
“I used to manage everything in WhatsApp and a spreadsheet. The deposit system alone has saved me hours of chasing.”
Sound familiar?
These are the frustrations that led facilitators to build Workshop Spirit
Chasing payments over WhatsApp and hoping students actually pay before the workshop
Managing a spreadsheet of bookings that never quite stays up to date
Manually updating your capacity count every time someone books or cancels
Fielding the same questions — "can I still book?", "how do I pay?" — over and over
Spending your Sunday evenings on admin instead of recovering for the week ahead
Losing track of who's coming, who's paid, and who you promised a discount
Workshop Spirit was built to fix all of this — so you can focus on facilitating, not administrating.
Curious how many hours you're losing to spreadsheets?
Calculate your hidden admin costs and see how much cash flow is at risk in manual WhatsApp threads.
Built for workshops, not just tickets
Unlike general event platforms or simple ticketing apps that just sell seats, Workshop Spirit is built for the multi-step operations of deep facilitation.
Deposit today, balance later
Take a deposit at booking, schedule payment plans, and send balance reminders as the date approaches — without chasing WhatsApp threads or updating manual spreadsheets.
Extras & accommodation
Sell add-ons, record external accommodation fees, and keep acknowledgements on the booking so nothing falls through the cracks.
Screening you control
Typed consent questions, women's and men's space policies, and gender-balance caps — set the agreements before anyone books.
Everything you need to run your practice
Stop juggling DMs, emails, and payment apps. Workshop Spirit brings it all together in one clean dashboard.
Accept bookings online
Share your booking link or embed it on your site. Set capacity per date, run a waitlist when full, and keep a clear list of who is confirmed.
Collect payments reliably
Take deposits via PayPal or Stripe, collect balances and instalments, and stop chasing payments by hand.
Scheduled participant emails
Send “What to bring”, “Safe travels”, and post-workshop notes on autopilot — timed to each workshop date.
Multi-facilitator organisations
Invite co-facilitators, set roles, and share one organisation dashboard for your whole team.
Revenue at a glance
Gross revenue, outstanding balances, and per-workshop financials — plus optional Mailchimp sync for marketing opt-ins.
Consent & participation policies
Typed consent questions, code of conduct, and women’s/men’s space policies — recorded against each booking.
Up and running in minutes
No technical knowledge needed. If you can send an email, you can run Workshop Spirit.
Create your workshop
Add your dates, capacity, price, and a short description. Set up a code of conduct. Takes about two minutes.
Share your link
Send it to your mailing list, post on social, or embed the booking form on your existing website.
Bookings arrive
Students book and pay a deposit. You get an instant notification. No chasing, no admin required.
Manage everything
View attendees, track payments, and handle changes — all from your clean, simple dashboard.
What facilitators say
The Sunday-night problem, in their words
“I used to manage everything in WhatsApp and a spreadsheet. Now I open my dashboard and everything is just there.”
“The deposit system alone has saved me hours of chasing. Students show up having already committed financially — the energy in the room is completely different.”
“We run a collective of four teachers and the org accounts mean we can finally see our whole programme in one place without endless email threads.”

Common questions
Straight answers about pricing, payments, and how workshops run on Workshop Spirit.
Is it really free to start?
Yes. There is no monthly subscription and no setup fee. We charge 2% commission on confirmed bookings, invoiced monthly — so we earn when you get paid.
Do I need a new PayPal or Stripe account?
No. You connect your own PayPal or Stripe account. Payments go to you; we only invoice 2% commission on confirmed bookings each month.
Can I take deposits and collect the balance later?
Yes. Take a deposit at booking, schedule payment plans with monthly instalments, and send balance reminders as the workshop date approaches.
What is a multi-session workshop?
A multi-session workshop is one offering with several dates — for example a course over three weekends. Participants book once and are registered for every session. Single-date workshops can still offer alternate run dates for people to choose from.
What is the difference between Solo and Organisation?
Solo is for individual facilitators. Organisation is for studios and collectives that need a shared dashboard, multi-facilitator roles, and commission reporting for the whole org. Both use the same 2% rate.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. There is no lock-in and no monthly subscription. You can stop using the platform whenever you like; commission only applies while you take confirmed bookings through it.
