Transparent pricing
Studio software with transparent pricing in 2026
Some platforms publish their prices. Others make you talk to sales first. Here's an honest list of which is which, so you can rule products in or out before you ever book a call.
Who publishes real prices
| Platform | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| StudioDeck | Fully published | All three tiers ($49-149/mo) listed on the pricing page, no sales call required to see them. |
| Momence | Mostly published | Base tiers ($0-199/mo) are listed, but the platform fee percentage that stacks on top isn't obvious from the pricing page alone. |
| WellnessLiving | Published | Four tiers listed ($89-159/mo, Enterprise custom), though reviewers report hidden annual fees added later. |
| Zen Planner | Published | Three flat tiers ($99-348/mo) listed; the Engage marketing add-on price is separate. |
| Gymdesk | Published | Five tiers ($75-200/mo, Enterprise custom) listed clearly, no gating. |
| TeamUp | Published | Volume-based pricing (from ~$99-119/mo) listed, scales with client count rather than feature tier. |
| Vagaro | Published, add-ons less clear | Base tiers ($23.99-83.99/mo) are listed, but the real cost with add-ons (text marketing, intake forms) isn't shown up front. |
| Pike13 | Published (2026 update) | Three tiers now listed, but the advertised number is the annual-contract rate - the monthly-billing price is $20-37/mo more. |
| Mindbody | Published, complex | Four tiers listed ($99-699+/mo), but per-location pricing plus a 20% marketplace commission make the real number harder to predict. |
| ABC Glofox | Not published | The site teases "starting at $99/mo" but every real tier requires a sales call - no number is shown until you talk to someone. |
| Virtuagym | Not published | Fully quote-based; the pricing page is a lead-capture form, not a price list. |
| Mariana Tek | Not published | Fully quote-based; every reported number in this research comes from reviewer accounts, not the company's own site. |
FAQ
Why does pricing transparency matter?
A published price lets you rule products in or out in five minutes. A quote-only model means you can't compare real costs without giving up your contact information and sitting through a sales call for every option.
Which platforms are fully quote-only?
Mariana Tek, ABC Glofox, and Virtuagym don't publish pricing anywhere on their sites - every number in this research comes from reviewer reports, not official pricing pages.
Is "published" the same as "simple"?
No - Mindbody and Vagaro both publish base prices, but the real cost depends on add-ons, location count, or marketplace commissions that aren't obvious from the pricing page alone.
Does StudioDeck have any pricing that isn't on the website?
No - the three published tiers are the complete price. Standard Stripe processing applies with no markup on top.
