Stop Calculating Instructor Commissions by Hand

Paydash connects to Mindbody and automatically calculates your instructor pay—no more spreadsheets, no more errors.

See How It Works

This 3-minute demo shows how Paydash syncs with Mindbody, applies your studio's commission rules, and generates accurate payroll reports. Watch it before applying—it'll answer most of your questions.

You're Spending Hours on Payroll Every Pay Period

If you're managing instructor pay at a Mindbody studio, you probably recognize this:

  • Exporting class and sales data from Mindbody into spreadsheets
  • Manually calculating commissions based on different rules for different instructors
  • Double-checking numbers because one mistake means an awkward conversation
  • Doing this every two weeks (or worse, every week)

It's tedious, error-prone, and takes time you don't have. And when something goes wrong, it's stressful for you and frustrating for your instructors.

Built by a Software Engineer for Studios Like Yours

Hi, I'm Nick LoCascio. I built Paydash after seeing how much time studio owners spend on payroll calculations. I'm a software engineer who's worked with fitness businesses, and I kept hearing the same frustration: "I spend hours every week just calculating instructor pay."

Paydash is designed specifically for Mindbody studios running commission-based payroll. It's not a generic payroll tool—it's built for your exact workflow. This is an early pilot, so you'll be working directly with me to make sure it actually solves your problem.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data secure?

Yes. Paydash uses OAuth to connect to Mindbody (the same way apps like QuickBooks and Zoom connect). We don't store your Mindbody password, and all data is encrypted. We only access the data needed to calculate commissions—class schedules, attendance, and sales.

Does Paydash change anything in my Mindbody account?

No. Paydash is read-only. It pulls data from Mindbody but never modifies your schedule, sales, or client records.

Is the pilot really free?

Yes. There's no cost to join the pilot. In exchange for free access, we ask for honest feedback about what works and what doesn't. After the pilot ends, we'll offer continued access at a monthly rate (which we'll discuss with you first).

What happens if I want to stop using it?

You can cancel anytime. If Paydash doesn't work for you during the pilot, just let us know. No strings attached.

What if Paydash makes a calculation error?

During the pilot, we recommend running Paydash alongside your current process for at least one pay period so you can verify the numbers. If you find an error, we'll fix it immediately—and that's exactly the kind of feedback we need during the pilot.

What do I need to get started?

Just a Mindbody account with admin access and about 30 minutes for the onboarding call. That's it.
