Why gyms choose StudioDash

  • No monthly subscription and no contract: 1% on payments, capped at 49/month.
  • Predictable cost that stops climbing at the cap, instead of a custom monthly quote.
  • Core tools included without a multi-tier upgrade path.
  • Want a fully-branded member app? White Label delivers branded iOS and Android apps and a custom domain for a flat $200/month, typically well below a premium branded-app tier.
  • Fits studios of any size: the fee cap keeps cost predictable whether you are small or large.

When Glofox might be the better fit

Glofox may be the better pick if its specific polished boutique member-app design and features are exactly what you want and you are comfortable with contract-based monthly pricing.

Small studio or large

Want your own branded app?

StudioDash scales from a single studio to large, multi-location businesses. Growing or established studios that want their own app can add White Label: fully-branded iOS and Android apps listed under your gym's name, plus a custom domain, for a flat $200/month. On most platforms a branded app is a premium, higher-tier add-on.
