Fitnito vs Gym Assistant

Fitnito provides class scheduling, member booking, passes, payments, and client management for small gyms, studios, and trainers. Businesses can create one-off or weekly classes, set capacity caps, assign coaches, and review bookings on a Monday–Sunday calendar. Each gym can have a member booking site where clients reserve or cancel classes themselves. The built-in AI assistant can help with setup and handle scheduling or member tasks through plain-English requests. Businesses can sell visit packs or unlimited memberships, connect them to passes, and track members with low balances. The free Starter Plan supports one location, one program, one pass type, up to five staff members, and two weekly recurring sessions. The Monthly Plan costs $34.95 per month and the Yearly Plan costs $349.95 per year; both list unlimited everything and include a 30-day free trial. Optional Fitnito Payments uses Stripe for recurring billing, visit packs, refunds, and payouts. Fitnito is available on Android, iOS, and web. It says card details are handled and encrypted by Stripe and describes its card storage as PCI-compliant and tokenized.

Gym Assistant is membership management software for small to medium-sized gyms, fitness centers, and health clubs. The installed Windows application supports member records, check-in, billing, payments, reports, measurements, notes, electronic documents, and waiver tracking. Barcode readers can automate check-in, and access-control add-ons support digital SmartKeys, barcode tags, and proximity cards or fobs. Billing includes invoices, integrated payment processing, monthly ACH and card payments through selected processors, and real-time swiped card transactions. MemberConnect adds online sign-up and payments, messaging, SMS, announcements, referrals, family accounts, and billing or visit history. Elite mobile credentials use changing QR codes or barcodes and can work without nearby Wi-Fi or cellular service. Gym Assistant is not cloud based, but network licenses let two to ten computers share data and DataSync can synchronize member data across facilities. A software purchase includes one year of phone and email support and free updates. MemberConnect Base is free; Plus is $10,015 a year, billed $100/year or $15/month; Elite is $25,030 a year, billed $250/year or $30/month.
