Why studios switch

The most common reasons studios leave WellnessLiving

Pricing is "Contact sales" only

WellnessLiving doesn't publish prices. Quotes routinely come back at $200+/month for an independent studio.

Annual contracts are the default

You're typically locked in for 12 months at the negotiated price.

The UI is overwhelming

Admins spend their first month trying to figure out what does what. New Class Booking admins are productive in an afternoon.

Heavy on upsells

Lead-gen, marketing automation, branded apps — all priced as add-ons. Class Booking includes the equivalents in the base price.

Support quality is inconsistent

Studio owners report long response times for non-critical issues.

Honest take

When WellnessLiving is still the right choice

We're not the right fit for everyone. Here's when you should stay with WellnessLiving.

  • You run a chain with 10+ locations and need an enterprise-class product with dedicated account management.
  • You're using WellnessLiving's lead-gen and marketing-automation suite intensively and getting positive ROI.
  • You need integrations with very specific spa or wellness POS hardware that we don't support.
  • You're heavily invested in WellnessLiving's native iOS/Android app and the upsell makes sense for your scale.

Switching from WellnessLiving — FAQ

Typically 5–7 business days. We export your members, classes and class-pass balances, import everything to Class Booking, walk you through verification on a video call, and switch your domain on a weekend. WellnessLiving uses its own payment gateway, so active recurring memberships generally require members to re-enter their card on first login — we provide an email template you can send the day before.

We can run both systems in parallel during your notice period (typically 30–60 days) and time the cutover to your contract end date so you're not paying both.

No — full historical bookings, attendance, payment history, member notes and tags all transfer.

That's a WellnessLiving-exclusive marketplace. If it's a meaningful customer-acquisition source for you, factor that in. For most independent studios, organic SEO + Instagram + word of mouth drives more new customers anyway.
