Platsana vs WellnessLiving

Platsana is yoga studio management software for scheduling classes, handling bookings and memberships, processing payments, managing students and viewing analytics. Studios can schedule recurring classes and one-time events, make bulk changes, and automatically email students about class changes or cancellations. When a place opens in a full class, the next waitlisted student is added and notified. Both plans include class packs and unlimited-access memberships; the Studio plan also supports recurring memberships with class limits. Payments use Stripe, and studios connect their own Stripe account. Platsana says it takes no cut of sales, though Stripe processing fees apply. Studios can embed a live schedule on their website, and a branded mobile app lets students browse schedules, book classes and manage passes. Reports cover attendance, bookings and revenue. The service is available on web, Android and iOS. Core costs $50 per month and includes one location and up to 10 instructors; Studio costs $80 per month and includes unlimited instructors. Both plans include a 30-day free trial without a credit card. Extra locations and Schedule API access are paid add-ons.
