Clovo is unique in the fitness booking platform world in that at no time do we hold your money or control your payouts. Instead, Clovo guides you through setting up a standard Stripe account that is directly owned and operated by you. This means your payments go directly from your clients to your bank account via Stripe.

Why Stripe?

Stripe is one of the world’s most trusted payment processors, used by millions of businesses. By connecting directly to Stripe, you get:

  • Direct payouts — money goes straight to your bank account, not through Clovo
  • Full control — you own your Stripe account and can access your dashboard, reports, and payout settings at any time
  • Secure payments — Stripe handles all PCI compliance and card security
  • Transparent fees — standard Stripe processing fees apply with no hidden costs from Clovo

How to connect Stripe

  1. In Clovo Studio, go to Setup > Stripe (or click Connect Stripe on the dashboard).
  2. Click Connect with Stripe. You’ll be redirected to Stripe’s onboarding flow.
  3. Follow the prompts to create a new Stripe account or connect an existing one. You’ll need your business details and bank account information.
  4. Once complete, you’ll be redirected back to Clovo Studio and payments will be enabled.

After connecting

Once Stripe is connected, your clients can make purchases in the Clovo app and on your landing page. Payments are processed by Stripe in real time, and you can monitor all transactions from your Stripe dashboard. Clovo takes a small percentage of each transaction — there are no monthly or setup fees.
