Kahunas pricing in 2026: plans and real cost.
Kahunas prices in three fixed USD tiers, capped by client count: USD 35 per month for up to 25 clients, USD 69 for up to 50, and USD 99 for unlimited. The detail most coaches miss is that the fully branded white-label app sits only on the top USD 99 tier. This guide lays out the full ladder in plain numbers, explains the 14-day trial and the branded-app tier, and gives an honest look at where Coachway lands if you coach in a European market.

the short answer
Kahunas pricing in 2026: Essentials USD 35/month (up to 25 clients), Growth USD 69/month (up to 50), Ultimate USD 99/month (unlimited clients, branded iOS and Android app; team members USD 10/month each). Annual billing saves 25%, there is a 14-day free trial, and no free version. Coachway is the per-client alternative from EUR 69/month with all features included.
On annual billing the tiers work out to USD 315, USD 621, and USD 900 per year. The branded white-label app is exclusive to the Ultimate tier, coaches connect their own Stripe or PayPal, and Kahunas states it takes no commission on your sales. Kahunas publishes the full ladder, monthly and yearly, in its homepage plan section, so confirm current rates there.
Kahunas pricing plans, the full ladder.
Kahunas runs three named tiers rather than a long per-client ladder, and each tier is capped by the number of clients you can carry. What changes as you climb is not just the cap but the feature set: Growth unlocks lead forms and automations, and Ultimate unlocks the fully branded app. Here is the verified ladder, in USD as of 2026.
| Tier | Price | Clients | What to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essentials | USD 35/mo or USD 315/yr | Up to 25 clients | The entry tier. iOS and Android apps, custom forms, workout and nutrition plans, and in-app messaging. |
| Growth | USD 69/mo or USD 621/yr | Up to 50 clients | Everything in Essentials, plus lead-generation forms, automations, bulk upload, and the Health Score AI feature. |
| Ultimate | USD 99/mo or USD 900/yr | Unlimited clients | Everything in Growth, plus a branded iOS app, a branded Android app, your own app-store listings, and team members at USD 10/month each. |
Annual billing is stated to save 25 percent on all three tiers, which is where the USD 315, USD 621, and USD 900 yearly figures come from. Kahunas has no standalone pricing URL, but its homepage plan section publishes the full monthly and yearly ladder; confirm the current figures there before you commit.

What the Kahunas pricing model actually means.
Three details shape the real cost of Kahunas, and two of them are easy to miss until you are mid-signup.
-
The branded app lives on the top tier
A fully branded iOS and Android app with your own App Store and Play Store listings is exclusive to the Ultimate tier at USD 99 per month. The Essentials and Growth tiers still ship native apps, but those carry standard Kahunas branding. If your own app icon matters, the real entry price for that is USD 99, not USD 35.
-
Pricing is in USD, by client cap
The tiers are fixed USD amounts tied to a client ceiling, not a smooth per-client charge. You pay the same Growth price whether you have 26 clients or 50, then step up to Ultimate at 51. If you bill your own clients in euros or another currency, the USD pricing is worth factoring into your margins.
-
Your own payments, no Kahunas commission
Kahunas states it takes no commission on your sales, and you connect your own Stripe or PayPal so client payments land in your own processor. That is a genuinely coach-friendly stance. There is a 14-day free trial to test the workflow first, though whether a card is required up front is not cleanly stated.

how Coachway compares
How Coachway pricing compares.
The honest difference comes down to two things: what the base price includes, and how the platform fits a European market. Kahunas is a capable fitness platform with three fixed USD tiers, but its branded white-label app only arrives at the top USD 99 tier. Coachway is built specifically for online fitness and nutrition coaches and prices at EUR 69/mo for up to 5 clients, then EUR 9 per additional active client, with everything in the base price: a native client app for iOS and Android in six languages (Coachway does not sell custom branding), a workout builder with 1,800+ exercises (supersets, dropsets, AMRAP, warm-up sets, per-set logging, rest timer, exercise video, templates, PR tracking), a meal planner with 1,100+ recipes on the coach side, structured check-ins reviewed in Power Panel, and in-app chat with voice notes. You keep your own Stripe account so client payments flow directly to you, and Coachway's optional built-in payment system carries a small fee of about 2.4 percent only if you choose to use it. The interface is written and reviewed by native-speaking coaches across the Nordic languages, German and English, which is the gap Kahunas's English-first surface leaves open. To be clear on scope: clients log food in the app against a 3.7 million item database with barcode scanning and a photo diary, and four access levels let you decide per client how much of that they see. There is no native scheduler built in.
Consider Coachway if: you coach in a European market and want a native client app in six languages and a native-language interface in one predictable per-client price. Coachway does not sell custom branding, so if your own branded app matters and a USD-tier model with it at USD 99 suits you, Kahunas may fit well.

Kahunas pricing, frequently asked.
How much does Kahunas cost?
Kahunas has three USD tiers as of 2026: Essentials at USD 35 per month for up to 25 clients, Growth at USD 69 per month for up to 50 clients, and Ultimate at USD 99 per month for unlimited clients. Annual billing saves 25 percent on each tier. Kahunas lists these prices in the plan section of its homepage, so confirm current rates there before committing.
Is there a free Kahunas trial?
Yes. Kahunas offers a 14-day free trial, confirmed in its help center and on its signup page. Whether a card is required up front is not cleanly stated, so do not assume a no-card trial. There is no permanently free tier published. If a free-forever plan matters to you, some competitors offer one, though usually with a low client cap.
How does the Kahunas branded app pricing work?
The fully branded white-label app is exclusive to the Ultimate tier at USD 99 per month. That tier is what unlocks a branded iOS app, a branded Android app, and your own App Store and Google Play listings, with no separate add-on fee published for it. The lower Essentials and Growth tiers still get native iOS and Android apps, but those carry standard Kahunas branding rather than your own. If a branded client app is the deciding factor, you are effectively choosing the Ultimate tier.
Does Kahunas charge a commission on client payments?
No. Kahunas states on its homepage that it does not charge any commission on your sales, and coaches connect their own Stripe or PayPal so client payments flow to their own processor. There is no published Kahunas per-transaction fee on top of that. The currency shown in the pricing source is USD, which is worth noting if you and your clients bill in euros or another currency.
Is Kahunas good for fitness coaches?
Yes. Kahunas is built for fitness coaches and personal trainers, with workouts and exercise videos, a large food-tracking database, check-ins, progress photos, content drip, and in-app messaging with voice notes. It is a solid fit if you want a branded app and bill in USD. It is English-first, so weigh that if you coach in a European market and want a native-language, euro-friendly setup.
How does Coachway pricing compare to Kahunas?
Coachway uses predictable per-client pricing: EUR 69 per month for up to 5 clients, then EUR 9 per additional active client, with all features included. Kahunas prices in fixed USD tiers by client cap (USD 35, 69, or 99 per month), with its branded app only on the top tier. On Coachway the client app for iOS and Android is included on every plan (without custom branding), the UI is native-reviewed across six languages, and you keep your own Stripe; the optional built-in payments carry about 2.4 percent only if you use them.
Can ChatGPT compare Kahunas pricing with other platforms for me?
It can compute the monthly bill at your client count on each platform if you paste the tiers and add-ons from this page with their check dates, and it will show the working. It cannot see current prices, so never let it look them up or fill a gap; the figures on this page and on the pricing comparison carry the dates they were verified.
