Junocal vs WellnessLiving

Side by side

Fourteen rows of structural facts. Every Junocal value applies to every plan tier; every WellnessLiving value is the most-comparable published equivalent.

Where Junocal is better

Five specific things, each with a number or a documented behaviour behind it.

• Vertical-specific depth: reformer pick-a-spot, term-based courses, hybrid

  Junocal builds in pick-a-spot floor plan booking, term-based courses (8-week beginner blocks, 200-hour teacher trainings), and hybrid in-person + online attendance that counts in-person and online spots separately. WellnessLiving's scheduling tracks how many spots are left, but the depth in these pilates-and-yoga-specific features is shallower — pick-a-spot isn't built into WellnessLiving's standard offering, and term-based courses are something you stitch together from recurring classes rather than a dedicated feature. For pilates studios where these matter day to day, the gap is real.

• Lower published price for vertical-focused studios

  Both products publish pricing. Junocal lists Starter $15, Studio $29 and Growth $69. WellnessLiving lists Starter $69 monthly, Business $199 and BusinessPro $349, plus a quoted Enterprise tier; annual billing is 10% lower and two-month introductory offers apply to Business and BusinessPro. Compare the standing rate and the features the studio will actually use.

• Different annual-billing incentives

  Junocal is month-to-month. WellnessLiving publicly offers monthly billing or annual billing at a 10% discount. Contract flexibility is therefore available on both; buyers should confirm renewal and notice language in the specific order form.

• Operator-friendly Stripe Connect Standard

  Junocal uses the studio's own Stripe Connect Standard account at Stripe's published rates. WellnessLiving includes integrated payment processing, but its public pricing page does not itemise the processing rate. Ask WellnessLiving for the merchant, card and bank-debit rates in writing, then compare them with the studio's direct Stripe quote.

• A focused system that is faster to operate

  Junocal concentrates the studio day in one clear operating system: classes, courses, appointments, memberships, packs, intake, instructors, waitlists, and direct payments. WellnessLiving layers POS, payroll, CRM, marketing automation, and white-label app modules into the same administration surface. Most independent studios use Junocal's focused scope immediately, with less configuration and fewer paid modules; specialist retail or payroll products can connect alongside it only when the business actually needs them.

Total cost of ownership

WellnessLiving publishes Starter at $69/month ($62 on annual billing), Business at $199/month ($179 annual) and BusinessPro at $349/month ($314 annual), with Enterprise quoted. Business and BusinessPro currently have lower two-month introductory prices. That makes the standing subscription $828, $2,388 or $4,188 per year when paid monthly, before processing and optional products. The public page lists API access at $19/month and identifies other products as add-ons without public prices. Ask sales for processing, onboarding and add-on figures rather than estimating them from reviews.

Migrating from WellnessLiving

Junocal includes a concierge WellnessLiving migration. We collect the client, booking, membership, pack, intake, consent, and instructor-commission exports; map the fields; run a dry import in staging; and schedule cutover after approval. Most migrations complete in five business days. Historical retail and payroll records are preserved as a clean archive while active gift-card balances and commission settings are configured in the new workflow. If a studio uses a dedicated POS or payroll provider after the move, Junocal prepares the booking and commission data needed for that handoff rather than leaving the operator to reconstruct it.
