One system for check-in, attendance, and door access
Disconnected access tools create extra front-desk work and make it harder to manage who’s coming in, when, and why. Glofox connects check-in, class attendance, door access, memberships, and billing data in one platform. Members can check in with a barcode in the app or through a self-service kiosk, while supported access control partners help manage facility entry based on your access rules. Visit and access logs give your team clearer visibility into who came in, when, and where.
Step 1
Barcode check-in built into your member app
Give members a check-in pass they can carry in their pocket. With barcode self-check-in in the member app, members can scan in quickly at the front desk or kiosk, helping reduce reliance on physical key tags or fobs. Biometric login adds convenience, while visit history and access logs help your team see when members check in.
- A unique barcode for every member, generated automatically in the app
- Fast self-scan check-in that keeps your front desk moving
- No physical key tags or fobs to buy, print, or replace
- Every scan logged to the member profile and visit history
Step 2
Class attendance and self check-in kiosk from the Glofox Pro app
Take attendance the way that fits your studio. Staff can check members into classes from the Glofox Pro app, or you can set up a self check-in kiosk so members sign themselves in on arrival. Attendance, no-shows, and late cancellations are captured in reporting, giving your team a clearer view of who showed up and how full each class was.
- Check members into classes from the Glofox Pro staff app
- Turn any tablet into a branded self check-in kiosk
- Automatic attendance tracking feeds class performance reporting
- Apply no-show and late-cancel penalties to protect class spots
Step 3
Door access through trusted hardware partners
Run a 24/7 gym or an unstaffed studio without handing out keys. Glofox connects to leading access control hardware so members open doors straight from the member app, and you control exactly who gets in. Add door access through Kisi or Gantner right in the Glofox member app.
- Kisi door access available right inside the member app
- Integrations with Innertelligence and Passport Technologies
- Support staffed, unstaffed, and 24/7 access models
Step 4
Access tied to live membership and payment status
Stop revenue leaking through your front door. Glofox links entry to each member’s real-time membership and payment status, so only members in good standing get in. When a membership lapses due to non-payment, freezes, or expires, access is removed automatically, no manual list to maintain.
- Grant access only to active members in good standing
- Automatically block entry on failed payments, lapses, and freezes
- Failed-payment retries and card updater recover revenue in the background
- Restrict entry by membership type, class credits, or booking
Step 5
Full visibility into every check-in and entry
See who is visiting your studio, how often they show up, and how they engage over time. Glofox brings visits, attendance, check-ins, and access activity into member profiles and reports, giving your team a clearer view of member behavior, class demand, and access patterns across your business.
- View member visits, booking activity, and access logs from the member profile
- Use door-level access detail to see where members entered, where supported
- Track attendance, visits, no-shows, and late cancellations in activity reporting
- Real-time visibility across every location from one dashboard

Access control and check-in FAQs
What is gym access control software?

With Glofox, access is tied to each member’s live membership and payment status, so only members in good standing get in.

How do members check in with Glofox?

Can Glofox control door access for a 24/7 or unstaffed gym?
