Does Pike13 work for studios in Europe?

Pike13 is US-based and hosts its data in the US. Studios that need EUR, GBP or DKK pricing, local payment methods like MobilePay, or EU-hosted data should check Pike13's current options. Class Booking supports all of these natively.

Is Class Booking GDPR-native?

Yes. Class Booking is built in the EU and GDPR is native. Data is hosted in the EU. We are the data processor; you are the controller. No transatlantic data transfer.

How does Class Booking handle memberships compared to Pike13?

Both run recurring memberships. Class Booking adds native season courses, late-cancellation penalties, gift cards and a treatment-booking module, plus an instructor portal with payroll exports. Season courses, gift cards and treatment booking sit in Pro and up; the instructor portal with payroll is included in Studio and can be added to the lower plans.

Is Pike13 cheaper than Class Booking?

Pike13 publishes its prices on its own pricing page. Class Booking starts at €10 / £8 / $13/month. The plans differ on capacity and advanced features, and a feature from a higher plan can be added on its own instead of upgrading. The plans are structured differently, so compare both price lists against your own studio size.

Comparison

Pike13 vs Class Booking — A side-by-side (2026)

Q: Can I migrate from Pike13 to Class Booking?

Yes. We import members, classes, class-pass balances and active subscriptions where the payment gateway allows it. Most studios are live within a week or two.

Pike13 builds a clean, focused class-booking product out of Seattle. Class Booking is engineered in Copenhagen with native multi-currency, EU data residency and a broad operations layer. This is the specific side-by-side — pricing, posture, features.

Who Pike13 fits

Pike13 has shipped since 2013 to a steady base of US studios — yoga, Pilates, martial arts, swim and music schools. The product is deliberately uncluttered. If your needs are straightforward and you are based in the US, that focus is a feature.

Pike13 fits you if you bill in USD, your members are in North America, and your operation is drop-in classes plus one or two recurring memberships. Support has a solid reputation, the interface stays out of your way.

Where Class Booking fits

The differences show up mainly in where each platform is based. Pike13 is US-based with US data hosting. Class Booking is designed for studios that need EUR or GBP pricing, MobilePay, or EU-hosted member data under GDPR.

Class Booking is built the other way. EU-hosted, GDPR-native, multi-currency from day one, Stripe-EU and MobilePay wired in. The feature set goes deeper: native season courses, an instructor portal with payroll exports, late-cancellation penalties, gift cards, and a treatment-booking module for 1:1 sessions. The pricing page shows which plan each one sits in.

Class Booking ships these as native modules — that is what our customers asked for.

Pricing

Pike13 publishes its prices on its own pricing page, with tiers that scale by client count and feature access. Check that page for current figures.

Class Booking starts at €10 / £8 / $13/month and goes to €50 / £40 / $60/month for the largest plan. The plans differ on capacity and advanced features, such as the instructor portal with payroll, which is included in Studio. Anything from a higher plan can be added on its own instead of upgrading. No setup fees, no per-seat charges, and every add-on price is public.

The plans are not identical, so a one-to-one comparison is imprecise. Both price lists are public, so you can compare them against your own studio size before a demo.
