The honest TeamUp alternativefor independent studios

TeamUp is one of the good guys — public pricing, no contracts, well-liked support. But the price scales with your customer list, and since the DaySmart acquisition in 2022 it's part of a large US software portfolio. Class Booking keeps the fairness and adds a flat price that doesn't grow every time your business does.

Why studios switch

The most common reasons studios leave TeamUp

The price grows with your customer list

TeamUp starts at $119/month for up to 100 active customers and steps up in bands as you grow. Class Booking is a flat plan — the same price whether you have 80 members or 800.

Owned by DaySmart since 2022

TeamUp was acquired by US-based DaySmart Software in September 2022. Nothing wrong with that — but the roadmap is now set inside a large multi-vertical portfolio, not by an independent studio-software team.

The branded app is a $99/month add-on

TeamUp's custom branded app costs an extra $99/month — almost doubling the entry price. Class Booking includes a branded web experience on every plan.

No real website builder

TeamUp gives you embeddable widgets and a booking page. Class Booking gives you a full CMS with custom pages, so your booking site can be your whole website.

EU data residency isn't the focus

Class Booking is built in Denmark and hosts all data in the EU. If GDPR posture matters to you, that's one less processor agreement to worry about.

Honest take

When TeamUp is still the right choice

We're not the right fit for everyone. Here's when you should stay with TeamUp.

  • You run a CrossFit box or functional-fitness gym with heavy course and recurring-programme scheduling — that's the world TeamUp grew up in.
  • You collect UK direct debits via GoCardless and the deep integration matters to your cash flow.
  • You run many locations with small member counts each — TeamUp's unlimited-locations model can be good value in that shape.
  • You value a long-established vendor with a large support team, and the current price band still feels fair for your size.

Switching from TeamUp — FAQ

Typically 5–7 business days. TeamUp has solid data exports, which makes our job easier: we export members, memberships, class history and pass balances, import everything to Class Booking, verify with you on a video call, and switch your domain on a weekend.

Card subscriptions running through Stripe transfer cleanly via Stripe's official tokenisation — billing dates and prices preserved, members don't notice. Direct-debit memberships collected via GoCardless work differently: members authorise a new mandate on Class Booking, which we time with the cutover and support with an email template. We confirm your exact setup on the discovery call.

Yes — TeamUp provides CSV exports of customers, memberships and attendance, and there's no contract holding your data hostage. We handle the export and import for you.

Fair point, and it makes switching easy: there's no lock-in to wait out on either side. The case for moving is the flat price that doesn't climb with your customer list, the included CMS website, EU data residency, and a UI in six languages.

For most studios, no — classes, courses, memberships, packs, waitlists and payments are all covered. If you rely on TeamUp's unlimited-locations model across many sites, talk to us first so we can confirm the Studio plan fits your structure.
