Getting started For trainees

What is Trainer-X?

A Saudi platform offering personal training sessions through independent trainers contracted with it, whose identities and certificates we have checked. You search, compare, book and pay Trainer-X in one place, Trainer-X issues the invoice in its name, and the trainer you chose delivers the session.

Is signing up free?

Finding a trainer For trainees

How do I know a trainer is trustworthy?

We review every trainer's identity and a certificate for each specialty before their profile appears. Extra badges show when a Ministry of Sport licence or insurance is verified. Reviews are written only by trainees who completed a real session with them.

Turn on the «Women only» filter on the trainers page to see female trainers who serve women only, with a «women's venue» mark on dedicated places.

What search filters are available?

Specialty, city, training type (gym, home, outdoors, online), price, rating, trainer gender, instant booking, intro session, and availability (today, tomorrow or this week; morning or evening; and in Ramadan after iftar or taraweeh).

Can I compare trainers?

Yes. Tap «Compare» on two or three cards to see prices, ratings, verification, specialties and the earliest free time side by side.

What is an «intro session»?

A short session (15 or 30 minutes) at a token price that some trainers offer so you can get to know them and set your goal before committing. It can be booked once with each trainer and shows an «Intro session» badge.

What does «Reviews from outside the platform» on a profile mean?

Reviews written by past trainees the trainer coached before joining, at their invitation. We show them separately from booking reviews, don't count them in the rating, and staff can remove any that break the rules.

Booking & times For trainees

What's the difference between «instant booking» and «booking with approval»?

With instant booking you pay right away and your time is confirmed. With approval you send a request first and only pay after the trainer accepts it within the time shown on the booking page.

Link to this question
When am I charged?

For instant booking you pay right after choosing the time. For services that need approval, you only pay after the trainer accepts your request.

Link to this question
Can I choose the session length?

If the trainer allows it for the service, the booking page shows different lengths with the price of each, and available times update for the length you pick. Otherwise the length is fixed by the trainer.

Can I book several sessions or repeat a time weekly?

If the trainer allows more than one time per request, pick several times in one request, or choose «Repeat weekly» to book the same day and time for several weeks.

Can I train with a friend or a group?

Yes, for services that accept more than one participant: choose the number of participants on the booking page to see the total price, and the trainer may offer a group discount.

The time I want is «temporarily held». What do I do?

It means another trainee hasn't finished booking yet. Tap «Notify me» to join the waiting list, and we'll tell you as soon as it's free.

How do I change my session time?

From the booking page choose «Change time» at least 24 hours before the session. For confirmed bookings the change needs the trainer's approval, and your current time stays valid until they reply.

The trainer declined my request. What happens?

Nothing is charged. The trainer may suggest another time that you can book in one tap from the link you receive, or you can choose another time or trainer.

Where does the session take place?

Depending on the service: at a gym the trainer sets or you choose from their venues, at your home, outdoors, or online. Your home address is shown to the trainer only after the booking is confirmed.

Which payment methods are available?

mada, credit cards, Apple Pay and others as shown on the payment page, through a licensed payment service provider. We never receive or store your card details.

Yes. The price before payment includes everything after any discount, and no fees are added later.

Link to this question
How do I use a discount code or offers?

Trainer offers (such as a first-session discount or packages) apply automatically when you qualify, and you enter a discount code at the payment step. You can also invite friends through «Invite a friend» when it's on.

Where do I find my payment receipt?

Under «Payments» in your account; each booking shows its payment and any refund.

A trainer asked me to pay them directly. Is that OK?

No. Always pay through the platform; that's what protects your money and your right to a refund. Paying outside it removes that protection, and please report any such request to us.

I have an injury or a health condition. What should I do?
