Attendance and fees for kids' coaches and parents
Sesslynx is one shared record of who attended and what is owed, for independent coaches and the parents who pay them. Mark it in a tap. The other side confirms. The balance keeps itself, and each class has its own chat.
On the web, iPhone, iPad and Android
The problem
Independent coaches are paid per session, and different kids pay in different ways. Nobody keeps a shared record. That is how awkward money talks, missed payments, and disputes start.
Coaches keep it in their head, a notes app, or a calendar. Parents keep it in theirs. The two rarely match by the end of the month.
One kid pays per session, a sibling is on a 10-pack, another is monthly. Everyone tries to remember the rules.
Zelle on Tuesday, cash at pickup, a check in the bag. It is easy to miss one, and hard to bring up.
How Sesslynx fixes it
Both sides look at the same sessions, the same statuses, and the same balance. Nothing counts until both sides have had the chance to agree.
Marked
Either side marks attendance in under 5 seconds.
Confirmed
The other side confirms or disputes. Silence for 48 hours means confirmed.
Balanced
Each mark updates a live balance: confirmed and pending.
Stated
A monthly statement both sides already agree with.
Step 1 · after class
Coach or parent marks the session
One tap, or swipe the ticket. Present, no-show, absent with notice, late cancel, coach cancelled or makeup.
Step 2 · the other side
Gets a notice to confirm
In the app, by push and by email. Until they answer, the charge shows as pending on both sides.
Confirm
ConfirmedIt goes on the ledger and the balance updates for both sides.
Something's off
DisputedPick what actually happened and add a short note. The charge stays pending until you both agree.
No reply in 48 hours
Auto-confirmedSilence counts as agreement, so nothing sits open forever.
The app
Coaches see their day and their money. Parents see every kid, what needs them, and why they owe what they owe.
How it works
Coaches add a class, the kids in it, and each kid's rate plan: per session, a package of lessons, or a monthly flat fee.
Send one invite link per family. Parents can start too: add a class for a coach who is not on Sesslynx yet, and they can claim it later. Parents can invite a co-parent.
Either side marks attendance in under five seconds. The other side gets a notice and can confirm or dispute. No reply in 48 hours means confirmed.
Every mark updates a live shared balance. At the end of the month, both sides get the same statement. In between, each class has its own chat.
Features
Swipe or tap a session ticket. Present, no-show, absent with notice, late cancel, coach cancelled, or makeup.
Each mark sends an in-app and email notice. Confirm or dispute. Anything left alone auto-confirms after 48 hours.
Pick a push before each session, from 10 minutes to 2 days ahead. After, unmarked sessions get a nudge that stops once anyone marks.
Per session, packages with lessons left, monthly flat, sibling or custom discounts, and your late-cancel and no-show policies.
Each kid in each class has one balance both sides can see, split into confirmed and pending.
Log Zelle, Venmo, cash, or check. When a parent records a payment, the coach acknowledges it and it comes off the balance.
A receipt-style statement for both sides at the end of each month, with a PDF download.
One running chat per class with the coach and its families. History stays with the class, week after week.
Invite your co-parent by link. You both see the same kids, balances, statements and class chats.
About you, cancellations, rate plans, classes and families, in the right order. Edit any of it later.
One account everywhere. Split views on iPad and hinge-aware layouts on foldables.
First names only. In group classes and chats, parents see their own kid's name and nobody else's.
The Today list
Open the app after class and every session from today is there. Tap to mark it. Statuses use a color and a word, so nothing depends on color alone.
One push per day, never one per class. Quiet hours from 9pm to 8am. Once anyone marks, reminders stop for both sides.

Co-parents
Invite your co-parent with a link. You both see the same kids, balances and statements, either of you can confirm a lesson or record a payment, and you are both in every class chat.
Two sides, one record
Pick your side at signup. If you coach and you are a parent, one account can hold both roles.
Spend the last minute of class marking it, not the last day of the month reconstructing it.

FAQ
Either side. Whoever marks first, the other side gets an in-app and email notice and can confirm or dispute. If nobody responds, the mark auto-confirms after 48 hours.
The other side can dispute a mark. The charge stays pending, not confirmed, until you sort it out. The balance always shows which amounts are confirmed and which are pending.
No. Reminders are batched to one push per day, respect quiet hours from 9pm to 8am, stop for both sides as soon as anyone marks, and stop entirely after a few days.
No. Families pay the way they already do, by Zelle, Venmo, cash, or check, and record it in Sesslynx. The coach acknowledges it and the balance updates. We never see bank or card details.
Yes. With Family Plus you can track classes with coaches who are not on Sesslynx. If the coach joins later, they can claim the class and the history merges.
As little as we can: a first name and the sessions they attend. In group classes, parents only see their own kid's row.
In a private class, the coach and the kid's parent (and co-parent). In a group class, the coach and the parents of every kid in the class. Other families' kids' names stay hidden. The chat history stays with the class.
Yes. Invite your co-parent with a link. They see the same kids, balances, statements and class chats, can mark, confirm and record payments, and get the same notifications.
Yes. In Settings, pick when you want a push: 10 minutes up to 2 days before, up to three times. Coaches can change it per class, parents per kid and class, and each co-parent sets their own. Reminders skip cancelled sessions, classes you've said you'll miss, and paused classes.
Yes. You choose a side at signup, and one account can hold both roles later.
Coaches start free with up to 5 kids. Parents linked to a coach on Sesslynx are always free.
