New in Kilo GMS: Accept In-Person Payments with Tap to Pay

Authors list

You can now take card-present payments right at your front desk. In-Person Payments connect a Stripe card reader to Kilo GMS, and once your reader is registered, Tap to Pay appears as a payment option in your Retail, Fees, and Package Assignment checkouts.

Ring up merch, charge a drop-in fee, or sign up a new athlete face-to-face, all without leaving the GMS.


What's New

  • Tap to Pay at checkout. Accept contactless card payments in your Retail, Fees, and Package Assignment flows.

  • Reader purchase and registration built in. Buy a Stripe S700 card reader and register it to your gym directly from Settings → Payment Methods.

  • Save a card for future billing. During Package Assignment, you can optionally store the athlete's card so future invoices charge automatically.

  • Future-dated package starts. Assign a package with a future billing start date, save the card today, and Kilo charges it automatically when billing begins.


Availability

In-person payments are available in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, and require a Stripe S700 card reader (one reader per gym). Reader setup is done from a desktop browser.


Get Started
