For a gym or studio that wants members booking classes and joining waitlists in an app with its name, at a price it can see before a demo, MeetScarlet is the better pick: the app comes in every plan for $349 a month, while Exercise.com prices its custom-branded apps by quote. MeetScarlet's setup is $999 on monthly billing and free on yearly. We make MeetScarlet; every Exercise.com fact here comes from Exercise.com's own pages.

- Our pick: MeetScarlet, for members booking classes and joining waitlists in an app with your name at a published price: $349 a month, where Exercise.com is priced by quote

- Exercise.com: Fitness business software for gyms, studios, trainers and fitness influencers; no published price: “Get a quote today”

## Which should you pick?

**Who wrote this:** the team that makes MeetScarlet. We compare from each vendor's own public pages, read on November 1, 2026, not from a hands-on test of the rival. Where a vendor does not publish something, we say so rather than guess.

**Pick MeetScarlet** if you run one gym or studio and want members booking classes, joining waitlists and buying memberships and packs in an app with your name, at a price you can see before a demo: $349 a month, plus $999 setup on monthly billing, free on yearly. Full classes get a waitlist that moves members up when a spot opens, which we did not find on Exercise.com's pages, and our team sets the app up and submits it under your own Apple and Google accounts.

**Exercise.com may suit you** if training content is part of what you sell, such as workout plans, livestreaming and on-demand content, or you want door access through Kisi or Gantner.

## Why gyms pick MeetScarlet over Exercise.com

- A published price: $349 a month with the app included, plus $999 setup, or $3,490 a year with no setup fee; Exercise.com asks you to get a quote
- Class waitlists where members move up when a spot opens; we found no waitlist on the Exercise.com pages we read
- Your app is published under your own Apple and Google developer accounts; the Exercise.com pages we read don't say whose accounts hold its apps

## Questions to ask on an Exercise.com demo

Exercise.com's public pages leave these open, so ask before you sign:

- What does the branded app cost for one gym, and is there a setup fee?
- Is the app listed under my gym's own developer accounts, or Exercise.com's?
- Who owns the app listing if I leave?
- Can members join a waitlist when a class is full?
- If you leave, can you export your client list, and what comes with it?

Ask us the same questions about MeetScarlet; our prices are on the [homepage](https://meetscarlet.com/#pricing).

## Moving to MeetScarlet

We import your member list from a spreadsheet or CSV export, then set up your classes, coaches, hours and memberships as part of setup. About 4 to 6 weeks for the store apps, most of it Apple's enrollment. Your web app's link is ready during setup, and members can book there as soon as you choose your MeetScarlet plan. They keep the same account when the store apps launch.

## Questions

Straight answers. Anything else, ask us on a demo.

### Does Exercise.com have a branded app?

Yes. Exercise.com sells custom-branded fitness apps for iOS, Android and the web, for memberships, workouts, scheduling and payments (read November 1, 2026).

### How much does Exercise.com cost?

Exercise.com does not publish prices. Its pricing page says it has a package for every type of fitness business and asks you to get a quote.

### Is Exercise.com cheaper than MeetScarlet?

We can't say, because MeetScarlet publishes its price and Exercise.com doesn't. MeetScarlet is $349 a month for one location with the app included, plus $999 setup on monthly billing, or $3,490 a year with no setup fee. Exercise.com prices by quote.

### Is this comparison independent?

No. We make MeetScarlet, and we recommend it to gyms and studios that want members booking classes in an app with their name at a published price. Every Exercise.com fact comes from Exercise.com's own pages, dated, and we say where Exercise.com may fit better.
