Glofox is built for a boutique gym or studio that sells memberships and classes, and it does that job properly — we're not going to invent a feature gap. We're built for the venue that has become more than that: the gym with padel courts, the studio that hires out its space, the operator opening a second site. If your business is still only memberships and a timetable, read the last section first.
If this describes what you need, it's a sound choice, and you should weigh the disruption of moving against what you'd actually gain.
A member app carrying your brand is central to the product rather than an add-on, and for a boutique studio whose members book several times a week that's a genuine part of the experience.
Recurring revenue, retention and the membership lifecycle are what the product is organised around. If your whole business is memberships, that focus is the point.
Boutique fitness is a well-understood category and Glofox has been aimed squarely at it for years. Narrow and deep beats broad and shallow when your business fits the narrow.
The five things a gym operator moving to us is usually buying.
The gym floor, the class timetable, the padel court, the studio you hire out by the hour, PT, the academy, a second site. One board, one customer record, one balance that spends across all of it — rather than courts pretending to be recurring classes.
Free to start. $49 a month flat for Pro. No commission, no setup fee, month to month with no exit fee. You can work out what we'd cost you before you speak to anyone, and the number doesn't change as you grow into it.
Real Sports OS audits your online presence, finds the sessions that aren't filling, spots the members who've quietly stopped coming and drafts the message to bring them back. Nothing sends without approval. Starter includes two audit reports; the full suite is on Pro.
Your logo, colours and photography, linked from your website or embedded into it — both on every plan. Your own domain, customer accounts and your own iOS and Android apps sit on Custom.
Your Stripe, Checkout.com or Paymob account. We never hold your money, so it settles on your provider's schedule and a refund is something you do rather than something you ask for. Paymob matters in the Gulf, where some platforms can't pay out locally.
Most venues are live within a week and reception picks up the calendar in an afternoon. Migration of customers, memberships and future bookings is included from Pro.
Switching booking software is disruptive, and we'd rather you did it once, for a reason that lasts.
Nothing to hire out, no courts, no second location, a team that knows the system. There is no feature here that will change your week — and "slightly cheaper" isn't a good enough reason to retrain everyone.
Courts, hireable space, coaching programmes, a second site, or a package that has to work across all of them. That's the point where a membership-first system starts costing your team hours every week.
The scheduling model changes. A gym runs on memberships and a class timetable; courts run on discrete slots with their own rates, gaps between bookings and booking windows. Both are first-class here, so courts don't have to be modelled as recurring classes, and one member balance covers a class, a court hour and a coaching session alike.
Yes. Starter is free and covers 50 bookings a month; Pro is $49 a month, flat, covering 500 bookings and the full growth suite, with a 30-day free trial. No commission on your bookings, no setup fee, and month to month with no exit fee. Custom is quoted, and covers multiple branches, your own domain, customer log-in, branded apps and the AI booking assistant.
Yes. Active memberships, remaining class-pack credits and future bookings are imported during onboarding, and we run the first renewal cycle in parallel with your old system before anything is switched off. Recurring memberships are the risky part of any migration, so that cycle is checked before you cancel anything.
That is the main reason venues consolidate. A membership or credit balance can be spent on a class, a court hour or a coaching session, and the reporting separates revenue by sport, channel and hour so you can see which side of the business the bundle actually pulls.
A single-site boutique gym or studio running on memberships and a class timetable, with a team that knows the software and an invoice they are happy with. Switching software is disruptive and slightly cheaper is not a good enough reason on its own. The case for moving starts when you add courts or rentable space, open a second site, or want the payments and the price under your own control.
Free to start. Published price, no contract, no commission.
