Returning to work after lockdown meant that Champneys moved from open member access to a gym-slot booking model. This gave an opportunity to increase engagement with their customers and introduce new touchpoints and to make the journey safe, frictionless and informative for their members.

Working with their partner, Duncan Green at Momentum BD, Champneys chose fibodo as their booking platform.

“We’re delighted to partner with fibodo for our Gym Booking Platform across our six sites in the UK. The team have been extremely supportive, delivering on time and working with us to migrate our booking operation smoothly for our post-COVID launch.
Branded online and member booking apps are a brilliant extension of the Champneys brand experience and the backend system enables our central and local teams to manage really effectively. As we are delivering more than 30k bookings a month, we needed something stable and future proof allowing us to add more sites and products to the calendar when we are ready.
The data generated by the system provides a focal point for us that just wasn’t possible before, and we are in a stronger position now to delight our customers than before the pandemic.”
