VERDICT

Should I use Punchpass?

Fitness & yoga studio management software - punchpass.com

Worth it. Buy if you run a small yoga, pilates, or fitness studio needing scheduling, passes, and payments without Mindbody's bloat. Skip if you're a multi-location gym or need deep analytics and enterprise features.
