Equine Bookings Revolutionizes the Coaching Industry
Equine Bookings is an all-in-one platform for equestrian coaches and riders, tailored to meet the individual needs of each user in specific ways.
Founded by amateur showjumper, Harry Sykes, the purpose of the app is to fulfil particular elements required from both types of user; the coach and the rider. Born out of frustration in trying to organise training, including difficulties encountered when paying for the training in terms of cash or bank transfer, Harry was determined to solve the problem for not only himself but for other equestrians too.
Alongside a booking and payment platform, the app offers a space for equestrian coaches to advertise their services and availability for training.
After two years in development, the platform was officially launched in February 2020 and has so far helped connect over 1000 riders with coaches across ten different equestrian disciplines.
From creating lessons and clinics, to clients booking and paying, you can rest assured that Equine Bookings has everything for both coach and rider needs.
Features for coaches include:
Unlimited Bookings and Payments
All coach accounts above the “Advertisement Tier”, come with the ability to take unlimited bookings, which means no matter how big or small the event or lessons are, the platform is fully capable of handling all bookings and payments.
Receive 100% of Booking Cost
There are NO hidden fees. Membership means that whatever the charge for a lesson, 100% of this goes into the coaches bank account, as Equine Bookings do not take a cut of any kind. However, clients pay a small booking fee when they checkout.
Personalised Cancellation Policy
All coaches can set a cancellation policy for each activity they make, which helps deter no shows and late cancellations alongside offering a bespoke service depending on requirements.

Option to Vet Who Books Training
The Coach has the option to check everyone who makes bookings and has the opportunity to accept, reject or change each one placed. This facility is vital for busy coaches with restricted availability to make sure their loyal customers get their slots. However, there is that removes restrictions, allowing anyone to make a booking.

To save time and effort, the platform deals with all refunds, which also assists with bookkeeping. As soon as a booking is cancelled a full refund is issued back to the original card.
