Tell us about your work.
Five minutes: who you are, what you build on, and the code you would like on your link. A founder reads every application and answers within two business days.
Partners
Bring a studio. Get paid when it stays.
For web designers, template sellers and studio coaches. If you build sites for boutique fitness studios, you are often the first person they ask about booking software. Frontmat pays you when a studio you send stays, and gives you what you need to put its schedule on the site you build.
What you earn
$400when a studio you send pays its third month
$200more when it pays its twelfth
44 daysof free trial for the studio you bring, instead of 14. It covers most of a
build-out.
That is the founding rate, for partners approved by December 31, 2026. After that it is $300 and $200. No minimums, quotas or tiers: one studio a year is fine.
How it works
Four steps, and a tool for each.
2 · Share
Share your link or your code.
Studios that sign up through your link, or type your code when they create their studio, are credited to you the same minute. Your portal shows every one and where it stands.
3 · Build
Put the schedule on their site.
One snippet works on Squarespace, Showit, Wix, WordPress and hand-built sites, and on most of them members book without leaving the page. You build it from the studio's address alone.
4 · Get paid
Bounties reach your bank on the first of the month.
When the studio pays its third month, and again at its twelfth. Set up payouts once, through Stripe, and every earned bounty goes out on the next run.
What the studio gets
$99 a month, flat, for everything.
The schedule, pick-a-spot booking, memberships and class packs, waitlists, a member app in the studio's own name and colors, and payments on the studio's own Stripe account with no platform fee on top. Month to month.
The studio is always our customer directly, and its members and its money are always its own. A studio you bring gets a 44-day trial, and sees your name under Settings › Billing, so the recommendation is transparent both ways.
What you get to work with
The embed guide
The code, where it goes on each builder, how to check it, and the two things that usually go wrong. The same words the studio owner reads in their own admin.
The kit
The partner badge, copy you can lift for a proposal or a template listing, what you may claim about other software, and an outreach email that satisfies CAN-SPAM.
A portal
Your link and code, every studio you sent and where it stands, what you have earned, and the tools. You build an embed for any studio from its address alone.
A practice studio of your own
Made the day you are approved. It cannot take money or send texts, so build templates and give demos in it.
Studios you start for clients
Make one before the client has signed up, hand it over when it is ready, and their trial only starts when they first sign in.
A place on the directory
Once your first studio is live on Frontmat. Studio owners looking for someone to build their site find you there.
The fine print, in plain words
Tell people you are paid when you recommend us. "I earn a referral fee from Frontmat" near the link is enough.
No ads on the word Frontmat, no coupon sites, and no referring your own studio.
The terms you are approved on stay with every studio you referred under them, even if the program changes later.
Either side can end the partnership with 30 days' notice. What you have earned is still paid.
All of it, in full: the partner agreement. It is two pages, and it is the one you accept in the portal.
Build studio sites or advise studio owners? Applying takes about five minutes.
