How to Give Mindbody Members a Branded Booking App
Recommended next step
Launch your StudioCharge custom booking app
Mindbody-native booking, events, studio shop, and member social feed — one branded app for your gym or studio.
Members who book inside the Mindbody consumer app are opening a marketplace. Your studio is one listing among many. A branded booking app puts your studio name, icon, and colors on the home screen, with the live Mindbody schedule behind it.
This is not a project you build inside Mindbody. Mindbody stays the system of record. The StudioCharge branded app is the white-label iOS and Android app members download.

Quick answer
Give Mindbody members a branded booking app by requesting early access, creating your StudioCharge account from the dashboard link, syncing Mindbody, adding your logo, colors, and studio name, starting the $299/mo plan, and launching to the App Store and Google Play. See how it works.
What members should open
| Surface | What the member sees | Owns your icon? |
|---|---|---|
| Mindbody consumer app | Your studio inside a marketplace | No |
| Website booking widget | A page or iframe in the browser | No |
| StudioCharge branded app | Your name, icon, and colors on iOS and Android | Yes |
Use the consumer app if marketplace discovery is the job. Use the branded app when the job is “open our studio and book.”
What the app is connected to
Mindbody remains scheduling, catalog, and profiles. After you connect your Mindbody site, classes, packages, and members come in automatically. The app reads that data. You do not re-enter the schedule in a second system.
Members can then:
- Book classes and join waitlists from the live schedule
- Buy memberships, packages, drop-ins, and merch from the Mindbody catalog
- Read the member feed between visits
- Ask Studio AI about bookings, passes, and studio questions
- Receive email and push for trial and promo offers
Booking and purchases are unlimited on the $299/mo plan.
How to launch it
The how it works page is five steps. Early access is the door in.
- Request early access. Submit the form on the branded app page and describe the studio you want members to open from the home screen. StudioCharge sends a secure link to your dashboard.
- Sign up. Create your StudioCharge account from that link.
- Sync Mindbody. Connect your Mindbody site. Classes, packages, and members come in automatically.
- Brand it. Add your logo, colors, and studio name.
- Start the subscription. The branded app plan is $299 per month.
- Launch. The app goes live on the App Store and Google Play. Members download it there.
That sequence is the whole path. You are not configuring a white-label shell inside the Mindbody consumer app, and you are not shipping a website embed and calling it an app.
What to tell members
Once the store listings are live, point people at the download, not at a generic marketplace search:
- Email the active list with the App Store and Google Play links
- Put the same links where you already send members (site, Instagram bio, front desk)
- Say what they can do on day one: book a class, join a waitlist, buy a pack, and read studio news
The app is useful only if members know it exists. The schedule they book is still the one your team manages in Mindbody.
What this does not replace
- Mindbody. It stays the system of record.
- The consumer app. Leave it if you want marketplace discovery. It is a different product from a home-screen app with your logo.
- A from-scratch build. The branded app is the StudioCharge product: white-label iOS and Android, Mindbody sync, and the features on the pricing card. It is not an agency project you assemble inside Mindbody.
