Fitnito

Overview

Fitnito is a management platform for independent gyms, studios and trainers. It suits operators who want to combine class scheduling with member-led bookings and access sales. Its free plan makes it possible to start small, but the two-session weekly cap is restrictive; paid plans remove the stated limits for $34.95 a month or $349.95 a year.

Key features

Operators can schedule one-off and recurring classes, set capacity, assign coaches and review bookings on a Monday–Sunday calendar. That covers the basics of running a timetable, though the free tier’s limit of two weekly recurring sessions makes it better for a small offering than a full schedule.

Members can use a gym’s booking site to reserve or cancel classes themselves, reducing the need for staff to handle those routine changes. Gyms can sell punch-card packs or unlimited memberships and monitor members whose pass balances are running low, a practical combination for businesses offering both per-visit and ongoing access.

The AI assistant can help with setup, questions, scheduling and member tasks using plain English. An MCP connection also links Fitnito with Cursor, Grok, Claude and ChatGPT, but requires gym-owner sign-in and approval. These tools may suit owners who want an assistant for routine administration; they are not a substitute for checking consequential schedule or member changes.

Optional Fitnito Payments uses Stripe for recurring billing, visit packs, refunds and payouts to the gym’s bank account. Fitnito says Stripe handles and encrypts card details, with tokenized, PCI-compliant card storage. Its privacy policy describes SSL/TLS transmission encryption, encrypted storage, access controls, audits, updates and monitoring. Fitnito says it does not sell personal information, while noting it may use third-party providers for payments, email, hosting, storage and analytics.

Failed-payment recovery, membership freezes, refunds and flexible billing frequency are supported. Help guides are available, and Fitnito says support usually responds within a day and always within two to three business days.

Pricing

The Starter Plan is free, billed forever. It allows one location, one program, one pass type, up to five staff members and two weekly recurring sessions. That is a genuine no-cost way to try the core workflow, but the narrow location, program and timetable caps are likely to constrain even modest expansion.

The Monthly Plan costs $34.95 a month, billed per month, and includes unlimited everything, lower Fitnito Payments fees, premium features and rapid support. A 30-day free trial is included. It is the more flexible choice for businesses that need room to grow without an annual commitment.

The Yearly Plan costs $349.95 a year, billed per year, with the same stated unlimited access, lower payment fees, premium features and rapid support, plus a 30-day free trial. For a business ready to commit for a year, its annual price is lower than paying the monthly rate for twelve months. The trade-off is paying for the year upfront rather than month to month.

Platforms

Fitnito is available on Android, iOS and the web, giving operators and members access across mobile and browser platforms.

Who it's for

Fitnito targets independent fitness businesses, including gyms, yoga studios, martial arts schools and bootcamps. It is a strong fit for a small operator that values self-service bookings, passes and memberships in one system. Businesses needing a broad free timetable should look beyond Starter, while operators seeking those functions without session or location caps should compare the paid plans against their budget.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Member booking and cancellation through a gym-specific site can reduce routine booking work.
• Pros: The free plan includes core scheduling and access management with no recurring charge, making it useful for a very small operation.
• Pros: Paid plans bundle unlimited usage, lower Fitnito Payments fees, premium features and rapid support.
• Cons: Starter is capped at one location, one program, one pass type, five staff and two weekly recurring sessions.
• Cons: The paid plans’ lower payment fees depend on choosing Fitnito Payments; payments are optional rather than required.
• Cons: The annual plan requires a year’s commitment and payment upfront.

Verdict

Fitnito is a sensible choice for an independent fitness business that wants member self-booking, class management and flexible passes without stitching together separate tools. Its free plan is genuinely useful for a tiny operation, but the session and staffing limits make the paid plans the realistic choice for a growing schedule. Look elsewhere if you need a broader free tier or do not want to commit to the annual plan’s upfront cost.
