Launch your StudioCharge custom booking app

Mindbody-native booking, events, studio shop, and member social feed — one branded app for your gym or studio.

Member working out in a fitness gym

A booking app for a Mindbody gym has one requirement that generic scheduling apps do not: the class a member books has to be the class your front desk already created. Capacity, the waitlist, and the pack they use should match Mindbody.

The StudioCharge branded app is that booking app. It is white-label iOS and Android, synced to your Mindbody site. You are not turning on a booking module inside the Mindbody consumer app and calling it yours.

Quick answer

The best booking app for a Mindbody gym that wants its own brand is StudioCharge. Members book and join waitlists from the live Mindbody schedule, in an app with your logo, for $299/mo. The Mindbody consumer app books classes too, inside a shared marketplace.


What to require from a Mindbody booking app

  • The schedule is the Mindbody schedule, not a copy you maintain
  • Open spots and the waitlist match what the front desk sees
  • Members can book on iOS and Android under your studio name
  • Packs and memberships used for those classes come from the Mindbody catalog
  • You are not paying a per-booking fee on top of the plan

StudioCharge includes class booking and waitlist, synced with Mindbody, and unlimited booking and purchases. Membership access is in the app. Studio AI can answer booking and pass questions.


Ranked for Mindbody gyms

1. StudioCharge branded app — best owned booking app

Members download your app. The book screen is the live schedule: class details, open spots, book, waitlist. Classes come in automatically when you connect the Mindbody site, along with packages and members.

The same app sells memberships, packages, drop-ins, and merch, and it has a member feed plus email and push for promos. Price: $299 per month on the pricing card. See how it works.

2. Mindbody consumer app — best marketplace booking

Booking works, because it is Mindbody’s own app. The icon, the navigation, and the surrounding studios are Mindbody’s. Choose it when being listed matters more than owning the home screen. For the direct comparison, read branded app vs the Mindbody consumer app.

3. Website booking widgets — best on-site schedule

Fine for a schedule page. Not a gym booking app. No install, no home-screen icon, no push.

4. A custom-built booking app — best for a nonstandard brief

If you need booking behavior the product does not offer, an agency build is a different project. If you need Mindbody class booking, waitlists, and your brand, start with StudioCharge rather than a ground-up app.


How booking stays honest

You keep editing classes in Mindbody. The app reads them. If a gym books members in the app and also at the desk, both are looking at the same availability. That is the point of the sync.

Do not run a second schedule “for the app.” Drift between the two is how members book a class that is already full.

Request early access when you want that book screen under your logo.
