Run your lesson program without the clipboard.

Schedule lessons, assign horses, track credits, collect payments, and keep parents in the loop — all in one place.

For the office

Stop chasing payments and paperwork.

Packages, balances, fees and forms hang off the lessons themselves, so there is one place to look and nothing to reconcile by hand.

Get paid without a card reader.
A rider sends Venmo or Zelle with the memo code from the checkout screen. The office confirms the payment arrived, and the credits land on the rider’s account.
Never wonder who still has lessons left.
Every balance is its own line — one rider, one program, one instructor. Anyone running low is flagged before the next lesson.
Pay horse owners what the day actually owes.
When a lesson uses someone else’s horse, the fee owed to the horse’s owner is recorded on that lesson, as the lesson happens.
Know exactly who is ready to ride.
Release forms track who has signed, and any rider still missing one is flagged against the lesson.

For the day

Walk into the barn already knowing the day.

One calendar plans the week. The same lessons draw the board that hangs in the aisle, and a horse problem shows up on both.

Set the week once and stop rebuilding it.
Day, week and month views over the whole program. Recurring lessons set once. Quick-create on any open slot.
Put the day on the wall.
The Daily Barn Board shows which rider is on which horse. Run it on a TV in the aisle, and change a horse right there when plans shift.
Catch a horse conflict while it is still fixable.
A horse booked twice in the same hour is flagged, and so is a lesson still missing one. Swapping horses takes a couple of taps.
See lessons on the calendar you already check.
Connect a Google Calendar once, and every published lesson you teach is written to it with the rider, the horse and the time. Changes and cancellations follow. It runs one direction: BarnTack keeps the schedule, Google shows it.

For riders and parents

Answer fewer texts about lesson times.

Riders and guardians sign in to the same portal and handle the small things themselves — which is the office’s inbox, quieter.

Riders stop asking when the next lesson is.
The portal opens on a phone to the next lesson and the week ahead.
Reschedules arrive as requests, not texts.
Riders confirm attendance, ask for a different time, or cancel — from the same screen.
Credits get topped up without a phone call.
When a balance runs low, a rider buys another package straight from the portal.
Parents handle a kid’s lessons themselves.
A guardian account links to each rider in the family: same lessons, same confirmations, same packages, one sign-in.
Two programs, still one portal.
Every program keeps a separate schedule, separate credits, separate horses and instructors. A rider who takes lessons in two programs still opens one portal, with each balance on its own line.

More time teaching, less time texting.

The schedule, the credits, the horses and the forms all live in one place, so the rest of the day belongs to the ring.
