Personal trainer app with no monthly fee

Most coaching apps charge you every month, whether you train twenty clients or none. Gymbile doesn't. You pay a share of what you're paid, and nothing in a quiet month.

How the fee works

The more sessions you coach, the lower your fee. Gymbile counts the sessions you've coached in the last 30 days and sets the fee for your next session automatically.

Sessions you've coached in the last 30 days Platform fee You keep from a £65 session
0 to 10 15% £55.25
11 to 30 12% £57.20
31 to 50 10% £58.50
51 or more 8% £59.80

The fee applies to everything you sell through Gymbile: single sessions, packages, training plans and monthly plans. It's free for your clients: they pay only your price.

Card processing: covered by Gymbile. Stripe handles the payments and we pay its card fees, so the amounts above are what you keep.

An example month

You coach 8 sessions at £65. You earn £520, and Gymbile's fee at 15% is £78.

The next month you're on holiday and coach nothing. Your Gymbile fee is £0.

An app that charges £99 a month would cost you £99 in both months.

Your fee is set automatically by how many sessions you've coached in the last 30 days.

When a monthly subscription can cost less

If you coach a full, steady diary every month, a flat subscription can work out cheaper. Put your own numbers into the calculator above and see. For most trainers who are building up, coming back from a break, or whose bookings go up and down, paying only when you're paid costs less, and a quiet month costs nothing.

What you get for the fee

Gymbile isn't a client-management tool with a different price. It's built for two things: keeping your clients showing up, and helping new clients from around the world find you.

  • Clients who keep showing up. The AI Centre shows who's slipping or has gone quiet and drafts a nudge you send in one tap. Check-ins and goals keep clients on track between sessions.
  • New clients, anywhere. Clients find you in the Gymbile catalogue, matched to you by their goal. Time zones and currencies are handled for you, so you can coach someone on the other side of the world.
  • Live coaching in one app. One-to-one video, chat, booking and reminders.
  • No chasing money. Clients pay by card when they book. Gymbile holds the payment until the session and applies your cancellation rules automatically. Payouts reach your bank account through Stripe, usually within 7 days.

Founding Trainers

One Founding Trainer place left. Founding Trainers pay no platform fee for their first 12 months, then 5% for life. Everyone else pays the standard 15% to 8%.

FAQ

Is there really no monthly fee?

Yes. There's no subscription and no contract. You pay a platform fee only on payments you receive through Gymbile.

Do my clients pay to use Gymbile?

No. The app is free for clients. They pay only the price you set.

When do I get paid?

After the session, through Stripe, to your own bank account. Payouts usually arrive within 7 days. Packages and training plans are paid out to you in one payment.

What if a client cancels late or doesn't turn up?

You set your own cancellation rules, and Gymbile applies them automatically. Depending on your rules, you're paid in part or in full.

Can I bring my existing clients?

Yes. Send each client your personal invite link. They download Gymbile, sign up and tap the link, and they're connected to you.
