Studios comparing Junocal with Walla most often weigh pricing, payment terms, and contract length — the facts below cover all three.
Junocal is a Walla alternative for UK boutique pilates and yoga studios that want Walla's class-first feature set without the $668/month Core + app + website-services example, the branding add-ons, or a longer term. The two tools target the same studios and work the same way — the choice is about cost, not capability.
Walla publishes its Branded Studio App at $149/month on Core and Website & SEO Services at $199/month. Junocal includes a fully branded storefront — your domain, themes and identity — on every plan from £15.
Walla's main pricing page lists Core at $320 and Pro at $599 per location in US dollars. Junocal publishes three flat £ tiers — £15 / £29 / £69 — with the class-first operating core included from Starter.
Walla's main pricing page lists monthly prices, while its June 2026 support article separately lists annual and month-to-month rates. The signed Walla order form controls. Junocal publishes one month-to-month £ price with one-click cancellation, so the visible plan price is the recurring commitment.
UK studios run on Direct Debit for memberships. Junocal includes Bacs Direct Debit alongside card on every plan, through your own Stripe account at Stripe's standard UK rates — no markup, no held funds, and the same pick-a-spot, four-mode policies and waitlist behaviour you already run on Walla.

See the page →For UK boutique pilates and yoga studios that want Walla's class-first feature set without the all-in cost, Junocal is the closest direct alternative. The two tools work the same way — pick-a-spot floor plans, four-mode cancellation policies, a waitlist that alerts everyone when a spot opens. Three structural differences for UK operators: flat pricing from £15/month, a branded storefront included rather than Walla's paid app and website add-ons, and Bacs Direct Debit on memberships included on every plan.
Walla's main pricing page lists Core at $320 and Pro at $599 per location in US dollars. Core plus the Branded Studio App ($149) and Website & SEO Services ($199) is $668/month, or $8,016/year before onboarding and processing. Junocal Studio is £29/month, or £348/year, with branded booking and Bacs Direct Debit included.
Yes, on every plan, through your own Stripe account. UK studios can collect recurring membership payments by Bacs Direct Debit as well as card, with no markup from Junocal — you keep your own Stripe Connect Standard account and pay Stripe's standard UK rates directly. Junocal never holds funds and never takes a per-booking commission.
Junocal's published tiers — £15, £29, £69 — are the subscription prices; VAT is applied per your jurisdiction at checkout. Because you process payments through your own Stripe account, your client-facing pricing and VAT handling stay entirely under your control, exactly as they would on Walla. The difference is the software cost beneath it, not how you charge clients.
Yes. Junocal handles migration from Walla during your first 30 days at no extra cost. Walla supports standard data exports — client list, booking history, memberships, packs, intake forms and pick-a-spot assignments. We import everything into a staging copy of your studio, review it with you, then pick a Sunday cutover. Favourite-spot data carries across so clients see the same default reformer on day one. Most UK studios go from export to live in five business days.
14 days free, no card. Flat £ pricing. Branded booking and Bacs Direct Debit included on every tier. The same pick-a-spot you already run.
Walla publishes in US dollars. We keep those source figures in USD instead of presenting a temporary currency conversion as a UK list price. The Core + app + website-services example is $320 + $149 + $199 = $668/month, or $8,016/year. Junocal Studio is £29 × 12 = £348/year, before VAT.
