Mindbody is one of the best-known booking platforms in the industry. Class Booking is an alternative built for studios from one location upward: booking, memberships and payments in one system, a public price that is the same for everyone, monthly rolling plans and a migration we handle for you.
Where we differ
Mindbody and Class Booking both handle the core of running a studio: class booking, memberships and payments. They differ in focus, pricing model and setup. Below are the points where Class Booking takes its own approach, so you can judge which matters for your studio. For Mindbody's current features and prices, check its own website.
Class Booking pricing is on a single public page and the same for everyone: Basic €10 / £8 / $13, Pro €30 / £20 / $35 and Studio €50 / £40 / $60 per month.
Booking, memberships, payments and marketing are included in your plan, so there are no add-ons to pick between.
Class Booking is built so a new admin is productive the same afternoon, and our team moves your data across for you.
Class Booking has no annual contract. You can cancel from your dashboard any time.
Your booking site and member experience show your studio and your brand.
Side by side
Both columns are based on what each company publishes at the time of writing. Features and prices change, so check each provider's own website before you decide.

Fair take
Different studios need different systems. Here's when Mindbody may suit you better.
Tell us when you want to switch. We export your members, classes, schedules and active subscriptions from Mindbody, import them to Class Booking, sit on a video call with you to verify everything looks right, and switch your domain over the weekend. Your customers don't notice.
Typically 5-7 business days. We export members, class history and class-pass balances, import everything to Class Booking, walk you through verification on a video call, and switch your domain on a weekend.
It depends on the payment setup. Subscriptions that run on Stripe usually transfer cleanly. Where subscriptions run through Mindbody's own payment processing, they usually cannot be transferred 1:1, and members re-enter their card on first login on Class Booking. We provide an email template you can send the day before, and tell you which case applies on the discovery call.
No. We import members, past bookings, attendance, class-pass balances and notes from your Mindbody export, and keep as much payment history as the export contains.
If you are on a contract, you can run both systems in parallel during your notice period. We help you time the cutover to your contract end date so you don't pay for both at once.
No, Marketplace is part of Mindbody. If it's a meaningful traffic source for you, factor that in. Class Booking gives you your own booking site with SEO built in.
