How to Set Up Client Policies and Agreements

Overview

Hapana allows you to manage two key types of client acknowledgements — Policies and Package or Membership Agreements. Understanding the difference is important:

  • Policies: These are general terms that clients agree to by ticking a box during sign-up (e.g., cancellation or liability policies).
  • Agreements: These require a signature and are tied to specific packs or memberships (e.g., 10-class pack terms).

Both are essential for legal protection and clear communication.

Prerequisites

Before you begin:

  • Have your policy content and agreement wording ready (consult your legal team)
  • Admin access is required to edit profile and retail configuration
  • Know which policies apply to all sign-ups, and which agreements are tied to packs or memberships

Step-by-step instructions


Step 1: Add or edit client policies

  1. Click your Studio Name > Edit Profile
  2. On the left menu, click Policies
  3. Click the + icon to add a new policy
  4. Fill in:
    • Policy Name
    • Policy Content
    • Toggle Required to Agree to “Yes”

✅ Once enabled, clients will see this during sign-up and must tick a box to proceed.


Step 2: Add a policy to the sign-up flow

  1. Go to Account Settings > Configurations
  2. Click Client Sign-Up Fields
  3. Scroll down to the Policies section
  4. Ensure all required policies are toggled ON

Clients will see these during initial signup or when logging in for the first time.


Step 3: Create a package or membership agreement

  1. Go to Payments > Retail Configuration
  2. Choose either Session Packages or Memberships
  3. Click on a package/membership to edit
  4. Scroll to the Agreement Section and toggle ON
  5. Add your agreement text (terms, expectations, refund policy, etc.)
  6. Use shortcodes if needed (e.g. client name, start date)
  7. Tick Send electronic confirmation to email the agreement to the client
  8. Click Save


Step 4: How agreements appear to the client

When a client purchases a pack or membership:

  • They’ll receive an email prompt to review and sign
  • On next login, the system will prompt them to sign digitally before activating the pack
  • You can choose to collect the signature on-screen in person, or send it to them remotely

⚠️ Avoid using “Display and Collect Signature” unless the client is present at the time of purchase.


Step 5: View what a client has agreed to

  1. Go to Clients and open the client profile
  2. Under Client Info, scroll to the Agreements section
  3. Click the eye icon to view:
    • Policy: shows the date/time of acceptance (box ticked)
    • Agreement: shows full contract and signature with download option

📄 Only agreements can be downloaded as PDFs; policies are visible in the profile only.


Expected outcome

Your clients will now be prompted to accept policies during sign-up and sign agreements when purchasing packs or memberships. All acknowledgements are stored in the client’s profile and timestamped for reference.


FAQs

Q: What’s the difference between a policy and an agreement?

A: A policy is accepted by ticking a box. An agreement is signed and tied to a specific pack or membership.

Q: Can clients skip signing the agreement?

A: No — if enabled, clients must sign before the pack or membership becomes active.

Q: Can I edit a policy or agreement after it’s live?

A: Yes — and if marked “Required,” clients must re-agree to updated versions.
