IRIS + Personal Trainers & Gyms: Faster Bank Import
Personal trainers and gym owners handle membership payments, class fees, equipment purchases, and venue hire — often through multiple payment apps. If you use IRIS for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Personal Trainers & Gyms Using IRIS
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into IRIS. Convert your bank statements to structured spreadsheets to track membership income, match equipment purchases, and prepare your books for your accountant.
The Personal Trainers & Gyms + IRIS Workflow
Personal trainers and gym owners collect payments via direct debit for memberships, receive individual session payments through apps like PayPal or bank transfer, pay for equipment and venue hire, and track CPD course costs. Bank statements are reconciled against membership management software or booking systems to verify all client payments have been received.
Key terms you'll encounter: session rate, block booking, membership direct debit, PT package.
How It Works
Upload any bank statement PDF
Supports all major banks. Saves 1-2 hours per week on membership payment tracking and session income reconciliation for a trainer with 30+ regular clients
AI formats for IRIS
Output as CSV with Date, Narrative, Debit, Credit — IRIS uses Narrative instead of Description and requires separate Debit/Credit columns — dates in DD/MM/YYYY.
Import and reconcile
In IRIS Accountancy Suite, open the client file, go to Bank > Import Transactions. Select the CSV file, map columns to Date, Narrative, Debit, Credit, and import. IRIS links bank transactions directly to tax computations, so imported statements feed into both bookkeeping and tax return preparation simultaneously.
