Head to head
vs. Eversports
- Complete software included: app, your own website, digital signage, POS & marketing, no add-on stacking
- No booking or referral commission: you keep 100%
- Flat monthly price, cancel monthly: no annual contract, no onboarding fee
- Your own branded website + embeddable booking widgets included
- TWINT as a native payment method, not an add-on
- Your member data is yours, no export lock-in
Eversports runs a consumer marketplace that can bring in new customers, and for that a referral fee applies: 25% on the first booking of customers newly acquired via the marketplace (capped at ~€75 per customer), free after that. Plus a tiered annual base fee + one-off onboarding. avoo: flat monthly price, 0% commission, cancel monthly.
vs. bsport
- Complete software included: your own website, digital signage, TakeAway, POS & payroll, no add-on stacking
- Marketing automation (journeys) + lead funnel + at-risk report included
- A transparent flat price instead of “price on request” and tier upsells
- No booking commission, no setup fee, cancel monthly
- Instructor pool + class swaps, self-service
- Native TWINT & CHF, not a “translated” foreign product
bsport’s strength is marketplace integrations (ClassPass, Urban Sports Club, Gymlib, OneFit) and AI tools that bring in new customers. avoo instead puts everything in one platform at a transparent flat price: no booking commission, cancel monthly.
vs. Mindbody / ABC
- Complete software included: app, website, marketing, POS & staff, no add-on stacking
- CHF 45/month flat instead of from USD 99 to 699/month, and that’s per location
- Branded app included, at Mindbody a paid extra (~USD 75 to 250/mo.)
- No booking commission (Mindbody: 20% on newly referred clients, capped ~$30)
- EU hosting (revDSG/GDPR) + TWINT/CHF instead of US servers & USD
- No sales call, no annual contract: up and running in minutes
Typical there: tiered plans ~USD 99 up to 499 to 699/mo. per location, plus payment fees, a branded app as a paid extra (~USD 75 to 250/mo.) and a marketplace commission on newly referred clients (20%, capped ~$30). With avoo it’s all in one software, at a flat monthly price, 0% commission, cancel monthly.
vs. Magicline
- Scales with you: from a single studio to multiple locations with rooms per location, without enterprise overhead
- Complete software included: app, website, marketing, POS & payroll, no add-on stacking
- Cancel monthly instead of a multi-year contract (users report 3 to 5 year terms at Magicline)
- A transparent flat price from CHF 45: no tier stacking and no per-integration add-ons
- Up and running yourself in minutes: no sales process, no access-control hardware needed
- Native TWINT & CHF, and your member data stays yours
Magicline is strong for large fitness studios & chains: access control, hardware, multi-year contracts (customers like McFIT or clever fit). avoo grows with you from a single studio to multiple locations with several rooms each, without enterprise overhead and without a multi-year lock-in: simple, fair, cancel monthly. Start small, scale up: welcome, not an enterprise account.
Who is each best for?
avoo
avoo grows with you: from the small single studio in Switzerland just starting out to a group with multiple locations and several rooms per location (yoga, pilates, fitness, wellness, beauty). No IT team and no sales call needed: up and running yourself in minutes, a fair flat price, cancel monthly. The small studio is just as welcome as the multi-location operation: both get the same simple, complete platform.
For international chains with many locations, franchise structures or very specialised enterprise needs, a larger system may have advantages. We’d rather be honest about where we shine.
