Both score 7.9/10. Compare features and pricing below.
Both score 7.9/10. FitBudd is the best option for personal trainers who want their own app in the App Store without paying a developer $10,000+. The zero commission model means your revenue stays yours. At $79/mo for up to 50 clients, the math works out to $1.58 per client if you fill the plan. It is not for gym owners who need class scheduling or front desk management. If you coach clients 1-on-1 and want to look like a real brand, FitBudd delivers on that promise.

What the pricing really means
At first glance, FitBudd looks cheaper at $15/month vs $79/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
- Starter plan at $15/mo is one of the cheapest entry points for branded apps
- 508 reviews across G2 and Capterra with 4.6-4.7 average ratings
Where Wellyx wins
- Integrated access control hardware with no ongoing access control fees
- Covers gym, spa, and wellness in one platform so you skip paying for 3 tools
- 24/7 human support, not chatbots, which matters when your front desk is stuck
- 20% discount on annual billing brings the Basic plan to roughly $63/mo
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 Wellyx falls short
- Only 198 reviews total, much smaller user base than Mindbody or Zenoti
- No free trial or free tier to test before buying
- Enterprise pricing requires a sales call with no published numbers
- G2 review count is just 16, making that 4.6 rating less reliable
Who is each product built for?
FitBudd
Target: 1-5 trainers
FitBudd is the best option for personal trainers who want their own app in the App Store without paying a developer $10,000+. The zero commission model means your revenue stays yours. At $79/mo for up to 50 clients, the math works out to $1.58 per client if you fill the plan. It is not for gym owners who need class scheduling or front desk management. If you coach clients 1-on-1 and want to look like a real brand, FitBudd delivers on that promise.
Wellyx
Target: 1-10 locations
Wellyx is a solid pick for gym owners who also run spa services or wellness programs and want everything in one place. The built-in access control with no extra monthly fees is a real money saver compared to adding a third-party system. The 30% affiliate commission through Rakuten is among the highest in the category. Main concern is the smaller user base, so you are betting on a growing company rather than an established giant.
