daycrunch® membership

This might be
for you.

Or it might not. That's fine too. Take a few minutes and find out.

This page is about joining, who it's for and how to apply. For how booking, access and billing work, see How it works.

We started with offices, because that's where the first opportunity was, in buildings that weren't working the way they should. But what we've been building, slowly and deliberately, is something different: a set of places where the working day is genuinely worth having.

Membership keeps these spaces professional, safe and easy to share. The deal is simple: book what you need, come and go as you like, and look after the rooms and the people in them. In return, you get a place that just works.

We've learned, over years of running these spaces, that who's in the room matters as much as the room itself. So we take our time saying yes.

Is this for you?

We're building something we believe in. We'd like to find people who feel the same.

daycrunch® is for people who are building something, a practice, a company, a body of work, a career. People who want to work in a proper environment without the overhead, the 5-year lease, the corporate lobby and the front desk that's staffed only until 5pm.

It's for the therapist who needs a quiet room twice a week. The trainer who runs evening courses and needs 24-hour access without chasing anyone for a key. The consultant who moves between cities and wants one login that works everywhere. The small team that wants a real office, furnished and ready, without fitting it out themselves.

It's also for the service provider, the physiotherapist, the hair professional, the nutritionist, who wants to reach clients without taking on their own premises. We're building the infrastructure. We're looking for the people to bring it alive.

What connects them isn't an industry or a job title. It's a way of working: independent, professional, easy to share a space with. If you're reading this and thinking yes, that's me, it probably is.

What membership gives you

One membership.
Everything in it.

Your membership works across the full network. Across Switzerland, one credential, one monthly invoice, no surprises.

Every location, from day one

Basel, Zurich, Lausanne and Mägenwil: one NFC badge or the app opens every door. Move between cities without re-registering.

Book anything, any time

Desks, coaching, meeting, training and event spaces, from one hour. Extend or shorten spontaneously; pay for what you used.

All-inclusive, no extras

WiFi, refreshments and a screen where the room has one, all in the booking price. The price you see is the price you pay, for a desk, an office or a meeting room.

24/7, and no one to ask

The building never closes and there's no reception. You and your guests let yourselves in, the badge, app or PIN works at 6am, at midnight and on Sundays. Invite a visitor and they get their own access for the booking, and enter on their own.

First access to new services

As food, life services, care and play open at each location, members hear first, salon, physio, personal training and more.

The people around you

Everyone who shares a daycrunch space with you applied and was welcomed the same way. That changes the feel of a room in ways that are easy to notice.

How to join

The people matter as much
as the space.

A workplace is shaped by the people who use it. That's why we ask for a short application and, in most cases, a brief conversation before welcoming new members.

01

Apply

The form below takes about two minutes. Tell us a little about yourself and how you'd use daycrunch®. There are no trick questions, we're just reading to get a sense of who you are.

02

A conversation

For most new members we suggest a 15-minute call, Zoom or phone. Not an interview. We won't check references or ask for a business plan. We'd just like to say hello, make sure we can deliver what you need, and answer any questions. The kind of thing that used to happen before booking became a button.

03

Welcome

Once you're in, you're in. You'll receive a proper welcome, a short note from the team with your login, a getting-started guide, and an open invitation to reach out whenever you need anything. Full access from day one.

We aim to respond to every application within 2 business days. If we're not the right fit for each other, we'll say so honestly and kindly. We're probably a better fit for people looking for a long-term home than a short-term bargain.

Once you're in

How it works.

Membership and the mechanics are one and the same. Here's the short version; the full guide covers vehicles, cost centres, access and billing.

Once you're accepted, register

Membership is granted after your application, it isn't automatic. Once you're in, a one-time setup: because access, bookings and billing are digital, we verify who's using the spaces. About five minutes, covering you, your vehicle for the garage barrier, and a cost centre, then never again.

Book from your phone

Any space, any location. Extend or shorten on the spot; you pay only for what you use.

Walk straight in

Your NFC badge, app or PIN opens doors and the garage barrier, 24/7. No staff, no waiting.

The full guide & FAQ
Why we do this

Not just a desk.
A better day.

The buildings already exist. The cities are there. What's missing is places inside them that work for the whole person, not just the part of you that opens a laptop for eight hours. A place where the coffee is good, the physio is downstairs, someone cut your hair at noon, and the people you bumped into in the corridor were actually interesting.

That's what we're building, one location and one member at a time. It doesn't happen by accident and it doesn't happen fast, but it's the only kind worth building.

If you've ever felt the difference between a place made with care and one that hasn't, you'll feel it here. And as a member, you become part of what makes it that way.

From our members

In their own words.

The automation lets me run first-aid courses in the evening completely independently. And I know the people around me are there for the right reasons, the team made sure of that.

I was introduced by a colleague. That's how most good things start. The intro call was 15 minutes. I've used daycrunch every week since.

Tanju Erinmez
CTO, iDPARC AG · member since 2019

I needed rooms for client sessions, quiet, private, professional, without taking on fixed premises. daycrunch made that possible, and the people I share it with make it feel like somewhere worth being.

FAQ

Before you apply.

Questions about joining. For day-to-day questions, booking, access, billing and support, see Help & FAQ.

Is the intro call really necessary?
Not always, some applications are clear enough that we welcome people directly. But for most new members we like a brief, relaxed 15-minute conversation. You'll leave with a clear picture of which locations suit you, what's live where, and which membership option makes sense. If a call doesn't work for you, we can do it by email, just mention it in your application.
What are you actually looking for? Who doesn't get in?
We're looking for people who treat shared spaces and the team that runs them with basic professional respect. That's it. We're not filtering by industry, company size, income or job title, our members range from therapists to architects to trainers to founders. What they have in common is that they're pleasant to be around and take care of what they share. The vast majority of people who apply are welcomed.
I provide a service, physio, hair, food, training. Can I operate from daycrunch®?
Yes, and this is something we actively want to grow. If you're a service provider who wants to reach clients in a professional environment without taking on your own premises, we'd love to hear from you. Mention it in the application and we'll make sure the right conversation happens.
Is there a minimum commitment?
No. The pay-as-you-go option has no monthly minimum. Regular membership has a small monthly fee but no lock-in beyond one month's notice. Monthly offices have a 6-month minimum, but that's a separate product from general membership.
I'm an existing daycrunch® user. Does this apply to me?
Existing accounts in good standing continue as before, you're already a member. The new membership process applies to people joining for the first time. Any questions about your account? Email support@daycrun.ch and we'll sort it quickly.
My company already uses daycrunch®. How do I get access as a staff member?
Don't apply or create an account here, that would set up a separate personal account. Instead, ask your company's daycrunch® office coordinator to add you, so your access sits on the company account with the right billing and permissions. If you don't know who your coordinator is, raise a ticket and we'll point you to the right person.
