BookFit vs Gymcatch

BookFit is studio management software for fitness trainers and studios, bringing scheduling, memberships, payments, and client booking together. Trainers can set up recurring classes, workshops, private sessions, capacity rules, waitlists, cancellation policies, reminders, and 24/7 self-booking. Studios can sell memberships and class packs online, process Stripe payments, issue receipts and refunds, and follow package balances. Client profiles include history, notes, and memberships, and the platform supports digital waivers. Members can book through a branded client app and booking site; custom apps and websites are optional add-ons. BookFit provides booking and revenue visibility, with tax tracking and transaction export on the Studio plan. The free plan includes unlimited clients and bookings, but charges a 3.5% + €0.25 all-in payment fee. Trainer costs €49 a month, or €490 annually; Studio costs €89 a month, or €890 annually. Studio supports up to six users total, including the owner. BookFit is available on Android, iOS, and the web.

Gymcatch is a booking and customer management platform for independent fitness and wellness businesses. It lets businesses schedule classes, appointments, and events, including livestream and on-demand sessions, then sell access through pay-as-you-go payments, passes, bundles, courses, or memberships. Booking tools include multi-place bookings, automated wait lists, priority access, and cancellation policies. A customer management portal, customer and admin email and push notifications, online booking, automated billing, digital waivers, and a member mobile app support daily operations. Gymcatch documents integrations with Zoom, Stripe, GymcatchPay, and GoCardless; Zoom can create meeting links for sessions and share details with attendees. It is available on Android, iOS, and web. Gymcatch costs £10 a month for unlimited bookings, customers, and team members; optional bolt-ons cost £2 a month each. There is no free plan, but a free trial is available. GymcatchPay and GoCardless are limited to UK customers, and GoCardless is temporarily disabled in the Android app. The maker says payment providers process payments, so Gymcatch does not hold payment data.
