Running wellness programs for community organisations

28 May 2026 ยท 6 min read

Community wellness organisations face a particular challenge: the people who need your programs most are often the least able to pay full price. Tyz is built with this reality in mind. Free events โ€” drop-in yoga, community breathwork, open meditation circles โ€” incur zero platform fees regardless of your plan. You can run as many free events as your Spark plan allows without ever touching a payment method.

For organisations running a mix of free and low-cost paid programs, the Signature plan offers negotiated pricing. Tyz's SysAdmin team works with NGOs and registered charities on a fee structure that ensures the platform remains sustainable while keeping your overhead as low as possible. The minimum floor is 1.7% plus $0.30 per ticket โ€” the exact cost of processing via Stripe โ€” which means Tyz collects nothing for itself on NGO-rate plans. Your community pays face value, and your organisation keeps every dollar above that processing cost.

Beyond pricing, Tyz gives NGOs a dedicated catalog. Your events don't appear alongside commercial fitness studios in the main discovery feed; they're presented under your own organisation's brand. If you're running a mental health program or a culturally specific wellness series, that distinction matters. Your audience finds you through your own channels โ€” not by browsing a marketplace.
