Gym fee reminder app: expiry and dues reminders that go out on WhatsApp without you chasing

Calling members about money is the job nobody at a gym enjoys. A WhatsApp message from the system is easier to send and easier to receive, because it is not personal. Jimwala sends the reminders every morning on its own.

WhatsApp settings in Jimwala: how your messages are doing with delivered, read and not delivered counts, and automatic reminders, receipts and welcome messages switched on
  • What goes out automatically

    Expiry reminders: 7 days before the plan ends, 3 days before, on the day, and the day after if it lapses.

  • Pick the time, see what is coming

    Choose when member reminders go out: morning at 9 AM, afternoon at 1 PM or evening at 5 PM.

  • Your logo on the message

    Turn on Your logo on messages and reminders, receipts and notices go out with your gym logo as a banner on top, with the same words.

What goes out automatically

  • Expiry reminders: 7 days before the plan ends, 3 days before, on the day, and the day after if it lapses. The message can carry the member's own renewal link, so paying is one tap.
  • Pending-fee reminders: the amount owed, plus a payment link once you have added your UPI ID. Until then the message asks the member to pay at the desk.
  • A fee-due heads-up two days before a fee falls due, so the payment is not a surprise.
  • Payment receipts and a welcome message when someone joins.
  • Optional and off until you switch them on: a "we miss you" note to members who have stopped coming, an enquiry thank-you for new leads, and a request for a Google review a month after a member joins.

Pick the time, see what is coming

Choose when member reminders go out: morning at 9 AM, afternoon at 1 PM or evening at 5 PM. Your own daily summary stays at 9 AM.

The Coming up list shows exactly which messages will go to whom over the next 7 days, using the same rules as the daily run, so there are no surprises. The message guide shows the wording in English, Hindi and Hinglish, and Send me a sample puts a real one on your own phone.

Your logo on the message

Turn on Your logo on messages and reminders, receipts and notices go out with your gym logo as a banner on top, with the same words. Until the logo version of a message is approved in a member's language, the plain message is sent, so nothing is lost.

Know what was delivered

The last 30 days screen shows how many messages were sent, delivered and read. When one fails, it is explained in plain words with what to do next.

Numbers to fix lists members WhatsApp cannot reach, with Call, Fix number and "number is right" buttons, and shows the fees pending against each, so a wrong digit does not quietly cost you a renewal.

What you can send yourself

On the Dues page, tick a few members or pick everyone overdue and send the lot at once. Anyone already reminded today is skipped, so you cannot accidentally message the same person twice.

Broadcasts are for offers and notices: a festival discount, a holiday, a timing change. Send to everyone, or only to active, expiring, lapsed or new members, one batch, one plan, or a hand-picked group.

Control, so it never feels like spam

Every automatic message has its own on/off switch under Settings, Messages: renewal reminders, expiry messages, dues reminders, receipts, birthday wishes and alerts to you. A member who does not want WhatsApp can be switched off individually and is skipped everywhere, including broadcasts.

Birthday wishes are off until you turn them on. They count as an offer message, not a free reminder, because WhatsApp treats them as marketing.

What costs money and what does not

Reminders, receipts and welcome messages are included in every plan, however many go out. Broadcasts and birthday wishes use offer messages. Every plan includes some each month and packs start at 200 for ₹299. A broadcast message that fails to deliver is given back.

A note on wording

Messages are sent through WhatsApp's official business system, using templates that WhatsApp approves in advance. That is why you cannot write a free-text reminder with any wording you like. If you want ideas for your own messages to members, the guide on WhatsApp reminder messages has English and Hinglish examples you can copy.

Remind from your own WhatsApp, free

Besides the automatic messages, Home and Dues have a Remind button that opens a chat in your own WhatsApp with the member's name, the plan end date or the amount owed already typed, in English or Hindi. You press send from your own number, so it uses no message credits and needs no approved template.

How it is going, at a glance

WhatsApp settings open with how your messages are doing in the last 30 days: how many reached phones, how many were read, and how many are still on the way or could not be delivered. Tap the message previews to see exactly how each reminder looks on a phone before it goes out.
