Online registration & booking

Your courses book themselves – around the clock, without commission.

Participants find the course on your course website, put it in the cart, choose participants and a payment method and get their confirmation at once – Kursimple creates the invoice along with it. You get the finished booking in your customer records, with no email ping-pong. From €19 a month, 0 % commission.

How a booking works

From finding the course to a confirmed booking – in four steps

Every step you take today, Kursimple takes for you: showing the course, accepting the booking, confirming it, writing the invoice, keeping the waiting list.

Course website

Show your programme where participants look for it

Every course automatically gets its own page with pictures, dates, a map and similar courses. The course list filters by category, venue and course type and sorts by start, title or price – plus the search. At yourname.kursimple.de or under your own domain.

  • Course list with filters and search: find “watercolour”, filter by “art hall”, spot fully booked courses with a waiting list.
  • A course page with everything needed to decide: gallery, dates, price, free places, map, calendar download, similar courses, a booking button.
  • Venue and instructor pages: address, map, rooms and pictures – plus the profiles of your course leaders.
  • Calendar viewNew – all courses in a monthly calendar, a preview card on hover, shown as a list on a phone.
  • Sorting and grouping: by start, title or price, grouped by category, venue or course type – we set the default order up for you.
Cart & checkout

Several courses, several participants, one order

A mother books watercolour for herself, ballet for her daughter and a brush set – in one cart. As a guest, by registering or by logging in. She picks participants from her family, enters participant details per place and confirms the privacy notice.

  • A guest cart that carries over at loginNew – anyone who browses first and logs in later loses nothing.
  • Payment methods of your choice: invoice/bank transfer, SEPA direct debit, cash, PayPal, pmPayment and Mollie – we switch on what suits you.
  • Extra questions during bookingNew – your own fields for customers and participants at checkout, optional or required. The same person is asked only once.
  • Terms of participation with versionsNew – acceptance is required, and every order records the time and the version.
  • Live voucher checking at checkout: value voucher, percentage discount, member voucher, minimum order value, tied to a course or category.
  • 0 % commission, no fee per participant. The money goes straight into your account – cart and guest booking are already part of the Start plan.

Confirmation & follow-up

Confirmation and follow-up form – sent automatically

Seconds after booking, the participant has the confirmation in their inbox: with your wording, all items and the voucher discount. On request Kursimple creates the invoice as a draft straight away – one click and it goes out. Whatever you still need to know afterwards, Kursimple asks with a form.

  • Follow-up forms after the orderNew – a form builder with single-line fields, text areas, selections and checkboxes. A link by email, answers right in the order, resend with a click – every change becomes a new version.
  • Waiting list online: Fully booked dates still take people on, and you fill a place that opens up with the next in line at a click. You move people waiting to other dates, and duplicate registrations are spottedNew.
  • An invoice right at the booking – as a draft if you prefer, with your number range and letterhead.
  • Webhook for your website: for bookings through the REST API, Kursimple reports the participants of selected dates to your system (Pro plan).
Back-office booking, cancellation & withdrawal

Book, cancel and handle withdrawals – even when someone phones

Not everyone books online. On the phone you look up the customer and choose the date, material costs, free items and payment method – the order looks like any other. Anyone who cancels gets a credit note; anyone who withdraws gets an orderly procedure with approval.

  • Online withdrawalNew – a withdrawal form matched against the order and protected against bots, approved or rejected in the back office with 8 reasons and 4 email templates.
  • Cancellation in full or per participant with an automatic credit note – participants can be copied into other dates.
  • Free choice of dates in the order screen tooNew – put a one-to-one lesson straight into a free slot while on the phone.
  • Overbooking caught: if a date is full and you offer a waiting list, the booking becomes a waiting list entry – without a waiting list the cart refuses a full date in the first place.

Frequently asked

What course providers ask about online registration

Do participants have to create an account to book?

No. Guest booking is enough. Anyone who does create an account sees their orders in the customer portal, maintains participants and profile and has nothing to re-enter next time. A guest cart that is already filled survives the login.

Which payment methods can I offer?

Invoice/bank transfer, SEPA direct debit, cash and PayPal – we switch on what suits you. Direct debits are exported as a combined SEPA file for your bank, PayPal payments land in your own PayPal account. The money comes straight to you, without a detour through us.

What does a booking cost me?

Nothing extra. Kursimple takes 0 % commission and no fee per participant. You pay your monthly plan from €19, whether you get 10 or 1,000 bookings a month.

The next registration arrives at half past ten at night. Automatically.
