What Mindbody charges

Mindbody runs $79 a month. Below: what that comes to over a year at three volumes, what is not in that number, and what the same job costs when you own it instead of renting it.

A year of Mindbody, whatever you sell

This one does not move with volume: the published price is the published price, so the only question is whether you use enough of it to be worth that.

Published rate

That is $948 a year before card processing. Built and owned, that year is about $94.80 — a tenth of what you pay now, hosting and changes included.

Mindbody pricing, asked and answered

What does Mindbody cost?

Mindbody runs $79 a month. Starter 'starting at $79/mo' per location; Accelerate/Ultimate contact sales. Integrated processing rate depends on plan (not published).

What would Mindbody cost me over a year?

On 1,200 bookings at $120, Mindbody's published fees come to about $948 a year ($79 × 12 months). Built and owned, that year is about $94.80 — a tenth of what you pay now — and you keep the $853.20 difference.

Who pays Mindbody's fee — me or my customer?

Mindbody does not say in its published material, which usually means it is settled in the contract.

Is card processing included?

No. Taking the money is a separate cost, normally around 2.9% + $0.30 an order, and it is charged whoever you use. The figures on this page leave processing out on both sides so the comparison is like for like.

Is there a cheaper alternative to Mindbody?

That depends on what you actually use it for. Most businesses use a small part of a platform like this — take the money, hold the record, send the confirmation, show the list. That part can be built once and owned, and we price it against your own bill: a tenth of what you pay now, instead of a share of every booking forever. You keep the code and the data, and the old system keeps running beside it until the new one is proven.
