Zen Planner

Automate access control for gyms and fitness businesses using Zen Planner management software.

Keep member access aligned with membership status by connecting Zen Planner to your Kisi account. As memberships become active, expire, or are cancelled, access is updated automatically, thus eliminating manual administration while helping fitness businesses operate more efficiently.

Designed for gyms, martial arts schools, yoga studios, and boutique fitness businesses, the integration supports secure, self-service access while creating a seamless experience for members.

How the Zen Planner + Kisi integration works

Zen Planner connects membership management with Kisi access control to automate facility entry. As memberships are activated, Zen Planner automatically grants the appropriate door access through Kisi. When memberships lapse or are cancelled, access is revoked automatically, helping ensure only active members can enter the facility.

By linking membership status with physical access, fitness businesses can eliminate manual access management while supporting self-service facility operations and around-the-clock member access.
