FitBoat vs Gymcatch

FitBoat is yoga studio management software for handling classes, memberships, attendance, instructors, payments, and student engagement. Studios can create classes, set capacity, assign instructors, manage waitlists, and offer recurring sessions with online or offline booking. Member profiles can hold subscription details, attendance and payment history, health notes, and communications. Billing supports Razorpay, UPI, cards, and wallets, along with GST invoices, payment links, and dues tracking. Its branded student app for iOS and Android offers booking, schedules, digital membership cards, QR check-in, and push notifications. Reports cover revenue, occupancy, attendance, retention, churn, instructor performance, and popular classes. Staff tools include scheduling, hour and attendance tracking, and payroll by salary, per-class rate, or commission. A dashboard supports role-based views and multiple branches from one login. FitBoat lists Android, iOS, web, and API access. It is paid, with a seven-day free trial and no free plan.

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.
