One system for every lane, court and studio you run
Manage your pool lanes, sports hall, fitness studios, and community spaces from one system - with repeating timetables, public self-service booking, and every payment logged against the invoice it settles.
Leisure centres have more moving parts than almost any other venue: peak-hour lane swimming, a spinning class at the same time as a junior football session, and a birthday party hire in the main hall on Saturday afternoon. Axiom brings every space, every session, and every penny of income into one single system - so nothing gets lost and nothing goes unbilled.
Pool, sports hall, studio and squash courts on one live scheduler
Leisure centres run multiple facilities simultaneously throughout the day. Duty managers and reception share one live scheduler across every space, with each booking type in its own colour, from swimming lanes to fitness studios, so clashes are caught before they happen and every room is used to its full potential.
- Facility-by-Facility View
Pool lanes, sports hall, studio, squash courts and community rooms, all shown on one screen. Supervisors, receptionists and managers each see exactly what they need.
- Never Double-Sell a Lane
The system enforces capacity and availability rules per space. Overlapping bookings are blocked before they're confirmed, so you never double-sell a lane or a studio hour.
- Multi-Staff Access & Permissions
Front desk, duty managers, area supervisors: each gets their own login with the right level of access. Everyone sees what they need and nothing more.
Build your full programme once and stop rebooking it
Weekly class programmes, lane swimming sessions, school block bookings: they all repeat week after week. Enter each one once and the quarter's dates fill the scheduler, and any that need billing can have their invoices prepared from them, instead of keying in the same hour again and again.
- Daily, Weekly or Fortnightly
Choose how often it repeats and on which day, then say when it stops, by date or after so many sessions. A quarter's aquafit appears in the scheduler in a single step.
- Series-Level Updates
When a class moves time or a pool lane changes, update the whole recurring series in one step. Every affected session adjusts instantly, with no manual edits across the timetable.
- Reception Doesn't Have to Remember
When a session is booked, moved or called off, the people affected are emailed without anyone at reception remembering to do it. The instructor hosting it is told too.
Let the public book a lane at 10 PM without calling the front desk
Your dedicated public portal shows live availability across your facilities: lane swimming, court hire, class sign-ups. Members and the public can book any time of day without queuing at reception or waiting for a call back. Payments taken online, funds settled directly.
- Members Book Without Phoning
A branded booking page for your centre where members and the public can see real-time availability and book online. No phone call, no queue at reception.
- Card Payments Taken Online
Card payments for sessions, lane hire and facility lets are taken as the customer books and paid straight into your account, so reception handles far less cash.
- The Duty Manager Decides
Portal bookings can sit with your duty manager until they are approved or declined. The customer's email makes plain that no payment is taken before that call is made.
- Cash & Card at Reception
Walk-in bookings and cash payments at the front desk are recorded in the same system alongside online payments, giving one complete, reconciled record of all income.
Swimming academies and school swims, booked for the whole term
Schools, swimming academies and local sports clubs are often your biggest and most reliable income source. Axiom keeps their weekly blocks in the scheduler and can build the invoice from the lane time they booked, so the bill and the timetable agree without anyone checking line by line.
- The School Swim, Set Once a Term
Enter Year 4's Thursday swim with the last day of term and the full block is in place. If the school moves to Friday, one edit carries every remaining week across.
- An Account per School and Club
Each school, club and academy is a single account: who to call, every block they have taken, and what is still unpaid.
- Block Hire, Invoiced From the Diary
Raise a termly invoice from the block itself, lines filled in. Once it is checked and sent, every payment against it is logged.
Figures for the trust, without a month-end scramble
Leisure centres managed on behalf of local authorities or trusts are subject to regular performance review. Axiom will not produce the performance return itself. It keeps every booking, payment and adjustment as it happens, so whoever prepares the return starts from complete figures rather than a quarter's worth of guesswork.
- Every Transaction, Not a Summary
Payments, refunds and credit notes are each logged along with how the balance changed. When the trust asks where a month's income came from, the detail is already sitting there.
- The Numbers on Opening
Your dashboard carries bookings active and completed across both spaces and sessions, what is still owed, and anything waiting on approval, without going looking for it.
- Every Account Shows What It Owes
Each school, club and organisation carries its own balance, so your commercial team can see who is behind without adding up invoices to find out.
A leisure centre that runs efficiently
serves more people - and costs less to operate.
Every hour your staff spend on manual admin is an hour not spent on the facility floor, the programme, or the community it serves. Axiom removes the repetitive work so your team focuses on what actually makes your centre worth using.
One system for everything
Timetable, block bookings, public self-service, invoices: all in one place. No more piecing together the week from three different tools and a spreadsheet.
Fewer jobs for the front desk
The programme is entered once, and invoicing starts from the bookings rather than a blank page. Booking emails go out without anyone sending them. Your front desk team handles people, not paperwork.
Ready for review
When the local authority or your board wants figures, the bookings, invoices and payments behind them are already in the system rather than pieced together afterwards.
