HomePTKit

For personal trainers leaving Kahunas

Moving a Kahunas studio onto HomePTKit

If you're looking around because of cost, ease of use or branding, here's how HomePTKit handles those. There's no monthly fee, your own brand sits on the client portal and join page, and bookings, payments and coaching share one account. Kahunas does not document a coach export of clients, check-ins or programmes, but you can still bring a client list across with a spreadsheet, invite people to your join link, and start HomePTKit billing before you cancel each old subscription.

Percentage when clients pay, versus a monthly studio bill

HomePTKit takes a share of membership and challenge payments that run through the platform. There is no monthly platform fee. A monthly-fee platform charges the PT a studio subscription. That bill is due even in a quiet month, when no client pays.

Which model costs more depends on how much your clients pay you and on the other platform's current prices. We do not quote Kahunas plan prices on this page; those belong on Kahunas, and they change. Stripe card fees pass through at Stripe's rates and are not a HomePTKit markup. A monthly-fee platform typically still has card fees from its payment processor. The monthly platform-fee cap still applies while the rate is above 0%.

Worked HomePTKit example, using our numbers only: £1,200 of membership payments in a month is £90 at the standard 7.5%, then £75 once the monthly cap applies. PTs who join in the first 3 months after launch get 0% for 6 months, then 5% for 12 months, then the standard 7.5%. During the launch offer's 0% months the same payments carry no platform fee. During its 5% months the fee is £60. Paid 1:1 sessions are always 0% platform fee. A per-trainer override, if set, applies instead of the founding schedule and the standard rate.

How to move, step by step

Do not use scraping tools, browser extensions, or unofficial exporters to pull a client list. That breaches Kahunas's coach terms. Use records you already have, files Kahunas documents as downloads, or a written data return.

  1. 1

    Ask Kahunas to return your data

    You are the controller of your clients' data. Kahunas is your processor. Under UK GDPR Article 28(3)(g) you can ask them in writing to return the personal data they hold. Email support@kahunas.io. This template is a starting point, not legal advice.

    Kahunas's own docs already cover payment transaction downloads, invoice downloads, and a per-client questionnaire PDF. There is no documented coach export of clients, check-ins or programmes, which is why the letter exists.

    Request to return personal data under UK GDPR Article 28(3)(g)

    Hello,
    
    I am a coach with a Kahunas account. I am the controller of my clients' personal data. Kahunas is my processor.
    
    Under UK GDPR Article 28(3)(g), please return the personal data you hold for me as processor. Where you hold it, that includes:
    
    - Client identity and contact details (names, email addresses, phone numbers)
    - Check-ins, programmes, and related coaching records
    - Questionnaires
    - Payment transaction and invoice records associated with my account
    
    Please send it in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format where you can (for example CSV or JSON), and PDFs where that is how you already store a record.
    
    Coach name: [Your name]
    Kahunas account email: [Kahunas account email]
    Date: [Date]
    
    Thank you.

    Open in your email app, then replace the placeholders.

  2. 2

    Build the client spreadsheet

    Download our CSV template. The Kahunas importer preset looks for First Name, Email, Phone Number. Last name, allergies, intolerances and meal preferences are optional extra columns. Save as CSV UTF-8. Excel .xlsx files are not accepted.

    Fill it from your own records, from questionnaire PDFs and invoice or transaction downloads Kahunas already documents, and from any file they return after the letter. Only include fields HomePTKit stores. Birthdates, package names and payment status are dropped.

  3. 3

    Import with the Kahunas preset

    In the studio, open Clients, then Import. Choose the Kahunas column preset (First Name, Email, Phone Number) or map columns yourself. Preview every row. The file is read in that request and discarded. It is never stored.

    If the sheet includes allergies, intolerances or meal preferences, tick to confirm you have a lawful basis, including an Article 9 condition, to share that health information with HomePTKit for the import.

  4. 4

    Invite clients to your join link

    Tick who should be invited. Each selected person is emailed a join link with a one-time claim token. We never create their account for them. Import invites need Stripe Connect with charges enabled, so unused trainer accounts cannot mail a list.

    If you included health fields, the client sees those details and must tick to agree before they attach. If they decline, they still join you; only the health fields are dropped. Unaccepted invites expire after 90 days. You can view, resend and remove pending invites from the same screen.

  5. 5

    Re-subscribe on HomePTKit

    Live Stripe subscriptions cannot be moved from Kahunas to HomePTKit. A spreadsheet cannot take a billing relationship with it. After each client accepts the invite, they start a HomePTKit membership through checkout on this platform (Connect destination charges).

  6. 6

    Cancel the old Kahunas subscription last

    Only cancel that person's Kahunas subscription once the HomePTKit subscription is live. Cancel too early and they go unpaid; cancel too late and they may pay twice. Do this per client, not as a bulk cutover on day one.

What comes across

  • First name, optional last name, email, optional phone
  • Optional allergies, intolerances and meal preferences, held until the client agrees
  • A pending invite to your join link, not a finished HomePTKit account

What does not

  • Check-in history, measurements or progress photos
  • Workouts, programmes or messages
  • Live Stripe subscriptions
  • Payment history and questionnaire PDFs. Keep the downloads Kahunas already documents; they are not imported

Clients can re-upload key photos on HomePTKit if they want them here. You rebuild programmes in the studio.
