Do you charge based on the number of contacts I have? Is there a limit to the number of contacts I can add?
In CoachVantage, you can add as many contacts as you like! We do not limit the number of contacts you can have, nor do we limit the number of coaching engagements you can have per client.
We offer 2 plans - the Clarity Plan and the AHA Plan. We recommend the Clarity Plan for coahces who are just starting out, with up to 2 coaching program sign-up (or landing) pages and 4 contract e-signature requests per month.
The AHA Plan is recommended for established or full-time coaches, with unlimited coaching program sign-up (or landing) pages and unlimited contract e-signature requests. View our pricing page with more of a detailed breakdown here.

Billing & Payments
Do you offer a free trial?

Can I switch between monthly and yearly plans?

Calendar
Can I sync CoachVantage with my calendar?
Yes, CoachVantage syncs with 1 calendar including Google Calendar, Outlook, iCal, or Exchange, and Office 365. Learn how to connect your external calendar in this article.
Can I add more than 1 calendar to CoachVantage?
No, you can only connect one external calendar to CoachVantage at this time. This means you’ll need to choose the primary calendar you actively use (Google Calendar, Outlook, iCal, or Office 365).
Once connected, all of your events from that calendar will sync into CoachVantage to help prevent double-bookings and ensure clients only book you when truly available. If you use multiple calendars, we recommend consolidating events into your primary calendar so that CoachVantage reflects your complete availability.
Can clients book only within certain time windows?
Yes, you can set Availability Types to allow clients to only book with you within certain time windows. You can learn how to set that up in this article.
Can I block off time for vacations or breaks?

Can I send invoices using different currencies?

Select the desired currency you wish to invoice the client. Then return to the Invoices page to create your invoice. The currency will be as per the default currency you have selected in the Settings.
