Trainerize's facts are from its own website: trainerize.com/pricing (read 29 October 2026).

Why businesses switch from Trainerize

Trainerize (ABC Trainerize) is a market-leading all-in-one online coaching platform - workout programming, nutrition plans, in-app messaging, progress tracking, and a branded client mobile app. It's excellent for delivering online training programs, but it's a heavy platform where clients must download an app, and booking self-scheduling isn't its core strength. Pricing scales by client seats, so growth costs you more each month. The two tools can even coexist: keep Trainerize for programming, use BookAndGo for bookings.

Flat Pricing, Not Per-Client

BookAndGo's paid plans are a flat NZ$29 to NZ$129/mo (Professional is NZ$59) no matter how many clients you book, and the free Personal plan covers up to 30 clients. Trainerize charges by client seats, so signing new clients adds to your bill - your software cost grows exactly when you're trying to grow.

No App Download for Clients

Clients book in seconds from a link - no app, no account, no friction. Trainerize requires clients to download and log into its app, which is great for program delivery but a barrier for someone who just wants to book a session.

Booking-First, Done Properly

Instant self-scheduling, recurring appointments, waitlists, and a real availability engine - booking is the core of BookAndGo, not a side feature. Trainerize is built around online programming, where scheduling is secondary.

Where your data lives

Your documents are stored in Sydney, Australia. Sign-in, payments and some other services run overseas, and our privacy policy lists them.

No-Show Protection (auto-block repeat no-shows)

Automatically block repeat no-shows and protect your time against last-minute cancellations - purpose-built for paid in-person and online sessions. Trainerize has no dedicated no-show protection for one-off bookings.
