See it in action

Ninety seconds on how WorkshopFolio tells you which session needs you — and what to do about it.

How it works

From setup to paid in minutes,
not days.

1

Create your class page

Add your class details, price, capacity, and a deposit amount if you want one. No design skills or developer needed.

2

Share your booking link

Share a clean booking page with your students via link, social, or QR code. No account required for them to book.

3

Get paid directly

Payments land in your own Stripe account at standard Stripe rates. WorkshopFolio never touches or takes a cut of your money.

I was duct-taping Venmo, a Google Form, and a spreadsheet. WorkshopFolio replaced all three and actually looks professional.Ceramics instructor, Columbus OH
The $10 first class thing is exactly right. I didn't want to pay $60/month before I knew if online booking would even work for my students.Yoga teacher, Austin TX
My photography workshops book out days faster now that students can pay the deposit right there. The waitlist handles itself.Landscape photographer, Flagstaff AZ
