Bookicorn is booking and management software for riding schools, equestrian centres and freelance riding instructors. Your riders book group lessons, private and lunge lessons or hacks online or in the app, and pay with their 10-lesson pack or directly online. With the Resources add-on you link your school horses to your lessons, including working hours and rest breaks, so no horse gets booked twice. The Free plan stays free forever, and you pay 0 % commission on your bookings.

Key facts
At many riding schools, bookings arrive by WhatsApp, by phone or in the yard between two lessons. Which school horse goes out when is written on a whiteboard in the tack room, and the 10-lesson card gets stamped by hand. When a hack is called off because of a storm, you message every rider one by one.
With Bookicorn, your riders book for themselves, around the clock. Places, credits, confirmations and reminders run automatically. Cancel a lesson and everyone booked is notified, and with the Resources and Occupancy Management add-ons you see straight away if a horse would be double-booked.

Group lessons with a set number of places, private and lunge lessons with free time slot selection, hacks and trail rides as their own offer. Your riders book at any hour, in the browser or in the app.
With the Resources add-on you set up your horses with numbers, working hours and rest breaks and link them to your lessons. The Occupancy Management add-on warns you before a horse or an instructor is booked twice.
Sell packs of 5, 10 or 20 riding lessons, each with its own price and validity. Credit is deducted automatically at booking, oldest first. Monthly memberships come with the Credit Subscriptions add-on.
Holiday pony camps or courses that prepare riders for their riding exams run as a closed series that is booked as a whole. That is what the Block courses add-on is for.
With the Group Booking add-on, parents book siblings into the same pony lesson in a single step. Confirmation and reminder emails go out automatically.
Every riding instructor gets their own login with the permissions you choose and sees only their own lessons, bookings and payouts. The Trainer Portal is an add-on.
If a hack or a lesson in the outdoor arena cannot go ahead, you cancel it in a few clicks, even from your phone. Everyone booked is notified automatically.
When a riding lesson is full, riders join the waitlist. As soon as a place opens up, the next rider moves in automatically and gets a message. The Waitlist is an add-on.
With the Trial Offers add-on you give newcomers a taster lesson, and Bookicorn checks automatically whether someone is really new. Riding lesson gift vouchers are sold online with the Vouchers add-on.
Set up your first riding lessons in a few minutes. The Free plan stays free forever, and for the first 14 days you try every feature, no credit card needed.
With the Bookicorn Manager app you check your calendar and rider lists, add someone to a lesson or cancel one, right from your phone. You get a notification with every booking and every cancellation.
Your riders and their parents use the free Bookicorn app: open the schedule, pick a lesson, pay with credit or online. Both apps are on Google Play, and the iPhone versions are in preparation. Everything works the same way in the browser.


Pick one of seven design themes and add your logo, colours, photos of your yard and horses, and your own text. Riders and parents see your riding school, not someone else’s platform.
The page runs at your own address on bookicorn.net. Already have a website? Embed your lesson schedule and booking there as a widget (Website Integration add-on), or use your own address with the Custom domain add-on.


Bookicorn takes 0 % commission on every lesson booked. You pay for your plan, and for online payments only the usual fees of the payment provider, such as Stripe or PayPal.
When riders pay by bank transfer or at the yard, the full amount stays with you. Revenue, packs sold and refunds are always visible in the transaction overview.


At booking, your riders pay with credit from their lesson pack or online by card, SEPA Direct Debit, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Klarna or PayPal. Bookicorn records the payment and emails the confirmation.
You choose payment methods for each offer: for example credit for the weekly group lesson, online payment for the pony camp and bank transfer for the exam course, which you confirm yourself once it arrives.


Bookicorn is built for riding schools that would rather spend time with horses and riders than on the phone: from the freelance instructor to the equestrian centre with several instructors and sites.
Every lesson, hack and course in one view, with free places and waitlist. You set up the indoor school and outdoor arena as rooms, and moving or cancelling a lesson takes seconds.
Open the schedule, pick a lesson, pay with a lesson pack or online. Your riders do not need to message or call you, not even at eleven at night.

You run your riding school from a laptop or your phone. Holiday guests booking a trail ride see your booking page in their own language.
You get your own riding school page on bookicorn.net and can start right away. If you already have a website, you embed your schedule and booking there.
The Manager in the browser, next to the customer app for your riders and the Manager app for you and your team. All of them share the same data.


With Bookicorn Manager you run appointments, bookings and customers from your phone. In the Bookicorn app, your customers book in a few taps.
