Linked competitor details come from the vendor's public product or pricing pages. An unlinked “Confirm current scope” cell means the capability was not verified from those sources, not that it is absent. Confirm plan, implementation, and regional boundaries directly with Mindbody.

From $79

Starter, per location monthly

Price these out before you sign
  • Plan tier, which typically gates marketing and automation features you may already rely on.
  • Payment processing rate and whether it is bundled into the plan or negotiated separately.
  • Branded app licensing, usually a separate line from the core subscription.
  • Per-location pricing if you operate more than one studio.
Published on their own pricing page
  • Starter begins at $79/month per location, so the subscription scales with every location you add.
  • Client Pick-a-Spot and room and resource management require the Accelerate tier or higher.
  • Automated email and text campaigns and the built-in sales pipeline require the top Ultimate tier.
  • The branded mobile app is a separate add-on purchase rather than a plan inclusion.
