The current system, reviewed

  • Your rates live in your head.
  • Your schedule lives in three group texts and a gut feeling.
  • Your money lives in Venmo, whenever you get around to asking.
  • And the Johnson kid's package balance? Four left. Or three. His mom is positive it's five.

You're a good coach with a bad back office. We're the back office.

What you get

Your whole operation, in order.

Everything a one-coach business needs to run itself, and nothing that gets between you and the kids on the field.

Nº 01

A booking page that's yours

rostr.coach/yourname: your rates, your packages, your live availability. Parents tap a link, pick a slot, and book. It looks professional because it is.

Nº 02

Packages that track themselves

Sell a 10-pack once and it keeps its own count. Every confirmed session ticks the balance down, in plain view. Nobody argues about session eleven.

Nº 03

Paid straight to your bank

Cards are charged when a session confirms (not before) and settle straight to your bank through Stripe. Your money never sits with us. No requests, no "I'll catch you next week."

Nº 04

Reminders that kill no-shows

Automated texts go out before every session. Forgetful families remember, and your Tuesday 5 p.m. stops quietly evaporating.

Nº 05

Your rules, enforced by software

Minimum notice. "Two back-to-back sessions or the drive isn't worth it." Set a rule once and the page holds the line: you never have to be the bad guy.

Nº 06

Shared sessions, no awkward math

Two families splitting one session each pay their share up front. Nobody fronts money for the neighbors, and nobody chases the neighbors.

Three steps · about ten minutes

How it works

  1. Set up your page

    Rates, packages, rules, open slots. A screenshot of your notes app is all the prep you need, or send it over and we'll set it up with you.

  2. Send your link once

    It lives at rostr.coach/yourname. Drop it in the group text you already have.

  3. Parents book, and rebook

    Without asking you a thing. Card payments land in your bank, and packages count themselves down.

Founding Coach Early group

Claim a founding coach spot

If you're reading this, we're still taking founding coaches. You don't need to be full-time, and you don't need a business. Most of the coaches we're building with fit a few sessions a week around a job. That's exactly who this is for.

We're a small team, so we bring coaches on a handful at a time and stay close while you get going; when we're at capacity this section comes down. The ask is simple: use it for real, and tell us what's clumsy, missing, or wrong. Getting that right matters more to us than anything we could charge you for it, which is why founding coaches pay 0%.

  • 0% platform fee. You keep what you charge. We make our money from a small fee parents pay at checkout, not from you.
  • A direct line to the team. Tell us what's broken about running lessons. We build accordingly.
  • Set it up your way. Build the page yourself, or send your rates and we'll set it up for you. We'll do it together if you'd rather.

What it costs you: nothing. Parents pay a small booking fee when they book. The only thing on your side is standard card processing, the same cut any card reader takes.

No contract. If it doesn't earn its keep, walk away.
We're US-only for now: card payouts and text reminders are set up for the States. Elsewhere? Sign up anyway and we'll let you know when we reach you.

Before you ask

Five fair questions

What does it cost me?

Nothing. Founding coaches pay a 0% platform fee. Parents pay a small booking fee at checkout, and standard card processing comes out of each payment, the same as any card reader. No subscription, no setup charge, no fine print we'd be embarrassed to read aloud.

Where does my money sit?

Never with us. When a parent pays, the card is charged through Stripe and the money settles directly into your bank account. Rostr keeps the score (the ledger, the balances, the reminders); it never holds the money.

When does a parent's card get charged?

When you confirm a session, not when the parent requests it. Decline a request and nothing is charged. Packages are the one exception: those are paid once, up front, and the balance counts down from there.

Do the parents need an app?

No, just a link. Your page opens in the browser on the phone they already own. If they can order a pizza online, they can book a session.

What if I already take Venmo or cash?

Fine, keep taking them. Use Rostr for the things Venmo can't do: packages that track their own balance, reminders that kill no-shows, booking rules that enforce themselves, and shared sessions split cleanly up front.
