What the pricing really means
At first glance, FitBudd looks cheaper at $15/month vs $119/month. But sticker price is only part of the story. Look at what is included on the base plan, how many users you get, and whether you need add-ons to get the features you actually need. The $99/month plan that requires $200 in add-ons is actually more expensive than the $250/month plan that includes everything.
Where FitBudd wins
- Your own branded app in the App Store, not a generic white label
- Zero commission on client payments, you keep every dollar you charge

- All features included at every pricing level with no upselling
- Transparent customer-count pricing capped at $309/mo for 601+
- Unlimited locations at no extra charge
- 14-day free trial with month-to-month billing
Where FitBudd falls short
- Starter plan capped at 2 clients, most trainers will need Pro at $79/mo quickly
- No class scheduling, this is a 1-on-1 coaching tool not gym management
- No API access limits integration with other business tools
- Elite pricing is hidden behind a sales call
Where TeamUp falls short
- No workout/program builder for training delivery
- $119/mo starting price higher than some competitors entry
- No consumer marketplace for client discovery
- Branded app is $89/mo extra
