Eversports is the largest DACH competitor many Swiss studios already know. SportsNow and Bsport are common local alternatives; Mindbody fits global chains, and Acuity suits solo appointments. StudioPlan combines marketplace discovery with full studio operations — in CHF, with TWINT, and in German, French, Italian, and English.
Not the biggest brand — the best fit for independent studios that need bookings, clients, and growth in one place.
Transparent CHF pricing + TWINT
From CHF 29/month with no setup fee — and TWINT checkout for Swiss clients. You see the cost before you commit.
Built for multilingual Switzerland
Client booking and studio tools in German, French, Italian, and English — not an English-first product with a translation patch.
Marketplace + operations together
New clients discover you, book, pay, join waitlists, and buy memberships in one system — plus private sessions, no-show fees, invoices, and automatic client emails, without juggling two platforms.
Instructor salaries built in
Attendance-based pay rules, audited corrections, and lockable monthly CSV/PDF reports — without a separate payroll spreadsheet.
Three advantages that save you time
Growth, payroll clarity, and compliance features built for boutique studios in Switzerland — not bolted on later.
Only on StudioPlan
Bring-a-Friend fills empty seats — and brings new clients
When a class is underfilled, StudioPlan can offer a Bring-a-Friend guest pass: your member pays for one seat, their friend joins free. You fill the class, create a social booking moment, and introduce a potential new regular — without WhatsApp chasing or manual discounts.
Member books for two — pays for one
Friend discovers your studio with zero friction
Works with Smart Fill for underfilled classes
Not available on Eversports, SportsNow, Bsport, Mindbody, or Acuity
One exclusive feature that turns spare capacity into new clients.
Bring-a-Friend is built into StudioPlan growth workflows — not an add-on afterthought.
StudioPlan exclusive
Instructor salaries that match real attendance
Most studio tools stop at team roles. StudioPlan calculates trainer pay from finished classes: fixed or tiered rates, late-cancel and no-show rules, audited corrections, then a monthly report you can export and lock.
Studio-wide, per-trainer, or per-class-type pay rules
Automatic calculation when a class is completed
Corrections with reason and full audit history
CSV/PDF monthly export with period lock for bookkeeping
Fair pay. Clean books. No spreadsheet chaos.
Salary management is included on Professional and Enterprise — owners and admins see it by default, and you control access in Team → Permissions.

StudioPlan vs each alternative
Pick the comparison that matches what you are evaluating today.
Marketplace visibility without operational trade-offs
StudioPlan vs Eversports
Eversports is strong in the DACH region and known for marketplace discovery. Many studios value that visibility. StudioPlan also helps clients discover studios — and keeps booking, waitlists, loyalty, Smart Fill, and day-to-day operations in the same product so you are not managing growth in one system and operations in another.
StudioPlan: flat CHF plans that do not jump with booking volume
Eversports: booking-volume tiers from ~CHF 85/month plus ~CHF 95 setup on public pricing
Eversports: marketplace-first positioning with less operational depth for boutique studios
Swiss-built, with clearer growth tools and a lower entry price
StudioPlan vs SportsNow
SportsNow is a strong Swiss competitor — CHF pricing, TWINT, Swiss support, and solid studio operations for yoga, pilates, and fitness. StudioPlan still wins for studios that want a lower entry price, DE/FR/IT/EN from day one, Smart Fill and Bring-a-Friend to fill empty spots, and marketplace discovery connected directly to deeper waitlist, loyalty, and booking workflows.
StudioPlan: from CHF 29/month with public, transparent plans
SportsNow: public CHF plans from CHF 40/month (Premium BASIC)
StudioPlan: Smart Fill, Bring-a-Friend, loyalty, and marketplace + operations in one flow
SportsNow: strong Swiss ops and TWINT — without Smart Fill or Bring-a-Friend guest passes
Boutique studio power without quote-only pricing
StudioPlan vs Bsport
Bsport is a capable European boutique-fitness platform with deep studio features. In Switzerland, the usual friction is pricing opacity: plans are quote-based, often reported around CHF 145+ per month depending on modules, with longer commercial commitments. StudioPlan keeps CHF pricing public, includes TWINT checkout, and is built for multilingual Swiss studios without a sales-call barrier.
StudioPlan: public CHF 29–99/month, no setup fee, cancel anytime
Bsport: quote-based pricing, commonly reported from ~CHF 145/month
StudioPlan: native CHF + TWINT + DE/FR/IT/EN for Swiss clients
Bsport: strong boutique feature set, less transparent for Swiss cost comparison
Enterprise power without enterprise complexity
StudioPlan vs Mindbody
Mindbody is the global market leader — and often the right choice for large chains that need international marketplace reach and can absorb custom quotes, long contracts, and foreign-currency pricing. For an independent Swiss studio with a handful of instructors, that usually means paying for complexity you will not use.
Mindbody: often from ~CHF 90/month per location, sales quotes, and longer commitments
StudioPlan: multilingual Swiss client flows and TWINT checkout from day one
Mindbody: English-first product built for a global fitness market
Built for group studios, not only 1:1 appointments
StudioPlan vs Acuity
Acuity (Squarespace Scheduling) is affordable and effective for solo practitioners booking private sessions. It is not designed for Swiss group-class studios that need capacity controls, waitlists, memberships, marketplace discovery, team roles, and CHF-native studio products.
StudioPlan: group classes, capacity, waitlists, memberships, and TWINT
Acuity: strongest for individual appointment booking from ~CHF 15/month
StudioPlan: client discovery + studio operations together
Acuity: no Swiss studio marketplace or full multi-instructor operations
What you gain when you switch
Studios leave spreadsheets, WhatsApp booking, and oversized platforms for the same reasons.
1
One system for discovery and operations
Clients find you, book, pay, and return — without hopping between marketplace and back-office tools.
2
Predictable monthly cost
Know your software bill in CHF before the month starts. No surprise volume jumps or opaque enterprise quotes.
3
Fuller classes
Waitlists, Smart Fill, and Bring-a-Friend passes help fill the sessions that used to run half empty.
4
Less admin for your team
Owners, instructors, and front desk get role-aware access with per-person exceptions instead of sharing one overloaded login.
5
Trainer pay without spreadsheets
Fixed or tiered salary rules from real attendance, audited corrections, and monthly CSV/PDF exports you can lock when the period is final.
6
Fees and invoices without spreadsheets
Late cancellations and no-shows become fee drafts you can bundle into one Stripe invoice, waive with a logged reason, or chase with automatic payment reminders.
7
Clients hear from you automatically
Membership expiry, renewal, first-visit and birthday emails go out on your schedule, in the client's language — once you switch them on.
FAQ
Comparison questions
Straight answers for studio owners evaluating alternatives.
Is StudioPlan cheaper than Eversports?
For most independent Swiss studios, yes — especially once you include setup fees and booking-volume tiers. StudioPlan starts at CHF 29/month with public flat plans up to CHF 99/month. Eversports typically starts around CHF 85/month on public pricing, plus about CHF 95 setup, with tiers that rise as bookings grow.
Does StudioPlan create Tarif 595 receipts for health insurance?
Yes. StudioPlan creates Tarif-595-compliant receipts automatically after every payment. Clients download and submit them to their insurer themselves — no manual receipt work for your front desk. This Swiss workflow is rolling out now.
Can I run private 1:1 sessions alongside group classes?
Yes. Switch on the Private tab on your booking page, choose which instructors accept private sessions and set their weekly availability and buffers. Clients request a free slot and can add named companions. You approve the request with a price, StudioPlan emails the confirmation and a Stripe invoice, and creates the class and booking once payment arrives.
What happens when a client cancels late or does not show up?
You decide — the feature is off until you enable it. Once on, a membership or block-card credit is kept rather than returned, and unlimited memberships can trigger a CHF fee that lands as a draft under Payments → Receivables. From there you bundle drafts into one Stripe invoice, waive them with a logged reason, or send automatic payment reminders before and after the due date.
How does StudioPlan compare to SportsNow and Bsport?
SportsNow is the closest Swiss alternative: CHF pricing from CHF 40/month, TWINT, and Swiss support. Bsport is a capable European boutique platform, but pricing is usually quote-based and often higher. StudioPlan starts at CHF 29/month with public plans, multilingual booking, TWINT, Smart Fill, Bring-a-Friend guest passes, and marketplace discovery tied to full studio operations.
Can StudioPlan replace Eversports for discovery?
StudioPlan includes marketplace-style discovery so clients can find studios and book directly, then continue in the same system for waitlists, memberships, payments, and loyalty. You do not need a separate marketplace tool for the core journey.
Is Acuity enough for a yoga or pilates studio?
If you only book private 1:1 sessions, Acuity can work. If you run group classes with capacity, waitlists, memberships, and multiple instructors, you will outgrow it quickly — that is where StudioPlan is built to win.
Do I need a long contract?
No. StudioPlan offers a 14-day free trial, no setup fee, and cancel-anytime plans. Compare that carefully with vendors that rely on annual commitments or custom quotes.
Is competitor pricing always accurate?
No. Public competitor prices change and often exclude VAT, payment processing, branded apps, marketplace commissions, and add-ons. This page shows starting prices in CHF for easier comparison — then verify total cost for your studio size.
