I am a coach

Yes and No.

Yes; the first year is free (until the campaign is over)
No; for this we have two subscriptions for which we have done preliminary research so that the subscriptions match the costs well.

Yes you can.

For this we have developed a simple tool that you can place on your own website. Customers can then schedule an appointment through your personal coaching website. OnlineCoach.net takes care of the rest. You can find this script when you log into your account and click on "My website". All you have to do is cut and paste the code on your own site.

No.

The coach does not pay percentages of the session. Coaches only pay subscription fees. Because of this the coach always knows in advance how much he or she has paid.

If there has not been a chat between the coach and the client yet, you can click on the name of the client on the account (which can be found under ‘Appointments’). A chat screen will appear, to have a chat session.

If there has already been a chat session with the customer, you can reply on your own account. Follow these steps:
  • Log in to your account
  • Go to Messages
  • Select which chat you want to open

You can send a payment link to the customer on your own account. Use the following steps:
  • Log in on your account
  • Click on the button with the arrow in it, beneath ''info'
  • Enter a payment link under "Change appointment".
  • Choose a payment term if necessary
  • Save your options
  • And finally: click on Invoice / Send payment link

You can send an invoice to the customer on your own account. Use the following steps:
  • Log in on your account
  • Click on the button with the arrow in it
  • Clip attachments and select the invoice to be sent by clicking on "invoice".
  • Choose a payment term if necessary
  • Save your options
  • And finally: click on Invoice / Send Payment Link

The possibility to place the booking system on your own website is part of your subscription.

Because of this your new/own customers can make an appointment with you on your site.
You're able to change the colors of this widget to suit your site.

Step by step how to place the booking system on your own site:
  • Log in to your account
  • Click on the heading "Website".
  • If necessary, choose a background colour and/or the colour for the calendar (click on the save button to save these colours).
  • Place the code on your own site where you want to show the booking system.

Every coach automatically receives a digital notebook when a session has been booked.

This digital notepad can be found directly with your appointments. When you click on it you will see the notes you have made for this client.

Please let us know which category you are interested in, and we will add this subject to the list.

Send us a message by using the "contact" button and let us know which category it is. We will contact you as soon as possible.

We understand that very well.

That's why we have chosen to show you immediately which coaches are online. Within the search results you can also choose whether you only want to show the results of coaches who are online.
You can also send the coach a chat message or fill in the coach's contact form on his or her profile page. OnlineCoach.net makes sure that the coach is notified immediately.

Yes, it’s free

Registration on the site is free. OnlineCoach.net does not charge any money. The only thing you need to pay for is the session between with the coach. The coach will send you an invoice for this, he or she has made clear in advance what the costs are.

On OnlineCoach.net you can immediately see what the coach asks for his/her intake. In most cases, you don't have to pay for intake interviews.

Because of this, the coach knows if there is a click with the client and if he or she can help you. He or she also knows how you can be helped and you can discuss together how this is going and how it can be handled.

Payments between coach and client

For the customer as well as for the coach, all invoices are kept in one place.

Because of this, the client and coach keep track of which invoices have been paid and which ones haven't. It also gives you an overview the invoices have to be send to your insurance company.

This is done outside OnlineCoach.net (so we do not charge), but we make sure that this takes place on the site where the coach is paid directly and where the money is paid directly into the coach's account.

As soon as the agreement has been made between the client and the coach, the client will receive the invoice by e-mail (but also within his or her personal account). The coach can choose that clients must pay on an invoice basis, but it's also possible to choose the pay directly option. OnlineCoach.net gives the coaches the possibility to send a link within the mail, where the customer can pay the amount directly.

The Crea subscription
A subscription that is suitable for coaches in the following areas:
- Meditation, Music & Entertainment and Language Coach

The Professional subscription
This subscription is suitable for coaches within the work fields:
- Business, Communication, Animals, Financial, Behaviour, Lifestyle, Psychologists, Relationship and Sports
