switching from mindbody
a mindbody alternative you own.
Mindbody is good software, and plenty of clubs are happy on it. If yours is fed up with the monthly bill, or wants its members on its own website, Club Manager Pro does the same core job for a yearly or one-off licence.

why clubs switch
what changes when you own it
one price
The licence costs the same at 50 members or 500. A good month doesn’t put your bill up.
your members, your site
Members join, book and pay on your own website. Your member list stays on your site, not someone else’s server.
card fees at cost
Payments go through your own Stripe account. You pay Stripe’s rates and nothing on top.
the fair bit
what mindbody does better
Mindbody lists your classes in its own consumer app, where people already search for somewhere to train. That’s real reach a plugin on your own site doesn’t give you. It’s also fully hosted, with support.
Club Manager Pro runs on WordPress, so you need a WordPress site with WooCommerce and someone to keep it updated. It works on phones in the browser rather than through an app.
moving over
how to switch
1. try it
Start the 14-day free trial on your site. No card needed.
2. set up your club
Add your plans, prices and timetable. Classes repeat on their own.
3. invite your members
Members join on your site and add their card there. Saved cards usually can’t move between systems, so give people a few weeks.
4. switch off the old one
Once everyone’s moved, cancel Mindbody. Check your contract’s notice period first.
questions
the honest answers
Is Club Manager Pro cheaper than Mindbody?
For most clubs, yes, and the gap grows each year. The table above uses Mindbody’s published prices. Your own quote may differ.
Can I move my members’ card details?
Usually not. Saved cards stay with the old payment system, so members add their card again when they join on your site.
Do I need WordPress?
Yes, with WooCommerce. If that’s not your thing, I can set it up and look after it.
