Mindbody review

Mindbody is the most established name here and has the widest reach to consumers. Every plan lists the business on the Mindbody app, which the company says has more than 3 million active users, and ClassPass for business can fill spare spots. Starter, from $79 a month per location in North America, covers booking, payments, POS, branded website widgets, a hosted website and basic reporting with unlimited users. Accelerate adds analytics, room and resource management and Pick-a-Spot booking, and Ultimate adds automated email and text campaigns, a lead pipeline and the AI Concierge, which answers missed calls and client questions. Mindbody charges 20%, capped at $30, on the first purchase from a client the app brings in, and nothing on later bookings. The software spans fitness, beauty and wellness, so gyms see menus they will never use, and only the Starter price is on the page.
