Forty mats a week. The list opens Sunday at eight.

A weekly capacity that resets on the day and time you choose. Students pick a class and see their number for the week. When the week fills, the form says when next week opens.

Sound familiar?

The week's schedule goes out Sunday and the inbox fills by Monday

You email the schedule, students reply to claim a mat, and you keep a tally in a spreadsheet. Someone always books a class that filled an hour ago. Booking software wants a monthly fee and a contract for a studio with three classes a week.

What you get

The limits, hours, and questions, already set

This is exactly what the button creates. It is a starting point, not a cage: change any of it in the editor after.

Or by hand

Set it up yourself, step by step

The same values, typed in. About five minutes.

  1. Create the waitlist

    Open the "This week's classes" template, change what you like, and press Publish. An emailed code makes it yours and puts it live; nothing is public before that.

  2. Set capacity to 40 per week

    In Settings, set the capacity to 40 per week and the reset to Sun at 8:00 PM. The count starts over at every reset; nothing is deleted.

  3. Leave the hours open

    Under Hours, leave the schedule off so people can join at any time. You can pause the list by hand whenever you need to.

  4. Add the form fields

    Email is built in. On the Form tab, add Name (required), Experience. Labels and help text render as plain text.

  5. Add the "Class" time slots

    On the Form tab, add a Time slot field named "Class" with Monday 7:00 AM, vinyasa (14), Wednesday 6:30 PM, yin (12), Saturday 9:00 AM, slow flow (14). Each slot fills on its own and reads as full when its spots are taken.

  6. Show the counter

    In Settings, turn on the counter so the form shows how many spots are left. People join faster when they can see the number.

  7. Publish and share

    Click Publish. The Share tab has the hosted link, a QR code, and the script tag or iframe for your site. The submit button reads "Save my mat".

FAQ

Questions people here ask

Can each class have its own cap?

One capacity per waitlist. For a per-class cap, create a waitlist per class and put all three links on one page.

Does deleting a cancelled student free a mat?

Yes. The count is derived from entries, so removing one reopens a spot for the week.

Can I collect class fees?

No. Unwaited does not take payments. Use the export to send payment links or charge at the door.
