What the pricing really means
At first glance, PushPress looks cheaper at $0/month vs $69/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 PushPress wins
- Genuinely usable free plan with unlimited members
- Highest-rated gym software on G2 at 4.9/5
- Unlimited leads, admins, members, staff on all plans
- Clean modern UI that reduces admin overhead
Where WellnessLiving wins
- $69/mo Starter gets you class booking, payment processing, and a client app: cheaper entry than Mindbody at $99/mo for similar basics
- Built-in loyalty and rewards program lets you give points for check-ins, referrals, and purchases. Most competitors require a third-party tool for this
- Branded Achieve client app (white-label on BusinessPro at $349/mo) handles booking, purchases, and notifications without members leaving your brand
- Free data migration from Mindbody, ClubReady, or other platforms. They handle the import so you do not lose member history
Where PushPress falls short
- Free plan has 4.19% processing fees eating into revenue
- Full stack at $559+/mo rivals Mindbody pricing
- Website builder has Google indexing issues
- Limited reporting vs enterprise tools
Where WellnessLiving falls short
- Starter plan only allows 1 staff seat with basic scheduling. Any studio with 2+ instructors needs Business at $199/mo minimum
- Website builder and content tools are paid add-ons on top of your plan, which inflates the real monthly cost
- Support quality dropped noticeably in late 2025. Multiple users report longer hold times and less knowledgeable reps
- USD-only pricing and payment processing. Studios in Canada, UK, or Australia deal with currency conversion headaches
Who is each product built for?
PushPress
Target: 1-5 locations
PushPress is the best option for new and small gym owners because of the free tier and simple scaling. Community love shows in review scores. Processing fees on free plan are a hidden cost. Ideal for CrossFit boxes with 50-500 members.
WellnessLiving
Target: 1-20 locations
Buy WellnessLiving if you run a boutique studio with 2+ instructors and want a Mindbody alternative with built-in loyalty rewards at a lower price point. The Business plan at $199/mo is the sweet spot. Skip the Starter plan, because 1 staff seat is too limiting for any real studio operation.
