Kahunas vs Fitsly in 2026: price at 10, 25, 50 and 100 clients, app, payments and moving in.

Fitsly is one of the platforms named in public discussion of the Kahunas 2.0 update. This page compares the two on what a coach leaving Kahunas checks: cost at your client count, the client app, who takes a cut of payments, branding, and what each company says about moving in. Every fact comes from the two companies' own pages, linked and dated.

Disclosure: we build Coachway, which competes with both Kahunas and Fitsly. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by either company. We checked every fact about them on 12 November 2026. If either company wants to send a correction, write to [email protected]. How we checked, and our sources.

the short answer

Neither is cheaper at every size. Counting clients only, Fitsly is lower at 10 clients (USD 39 against USD 50) and at 50 (USD 69 against USD 100), and Kahunas is lower at 25 (USD 62.50 against USD 69) and at 100 (USD 150 against USD 159). The bigger differences are elsewhere: Fitsly sells a store-listed white label app as an add-on at USD 199 a month (listed as an early-bird price), and its terms set a platform fee, currently 2%, on client payments through Fitsly Payments (added to the client's checkout by default). Kahunas states 0% commission, and its branded app page describes a web app with no store listing, from 200 clients.

the arithmetic

What do Kahunas and Fitsly cost at 10, 25, 50 and 100 clients?

The two price differently. Kahunas charges per seat, where a seat is each active client and each team member who is not archived, and one price per seat applies to every seat you have: USD 5.00 for 3 to 24 seats, 2.50 for 25 to 49, 2.00 for 50 to 99 and 1.50 for 100 to 199, with a 3-seat minimum and 20 percent off if you pay yearly (checked 12 November 2026). It also bills the next tier up when that costs the same or less.

Fitsly charges by client tier. Its pricing page says: "Every feature is on every tier. The price depends only on how many active clients you coach." The slider on that page shows USD 39 a month for up to 20 clients, 69 for 50, 99 for 75, 159 for 125, 229 for 200 and 419 for 500 (checked 12 November 2026). It also offers yearly billing, shown as "2 months free".

Clients Kahunas, monthly Fitsly, monthly Difference
10 clients 10 x USD 5.00 = USD 50 USD 39 (tier up to 20 clients) Fitsly lower by USD 11
25 clients 25 x USD 2.50 = USD 62.50 USD 69 (tier up to 50 clients) Kahunas lower by USD 6.50
50 clients 50 x USD 2.00 = USD 100 USD 69 (tier up to 50 clients) Fitsly lower by USD 31
100 clients 100 x USD 1.50 = USD 150 USD 159 (tier up to 125 clients) Kahunas lower by USD 9

Sources: kahunas.io/pricing and fitsly.com/pricing, checked 12 November 2026. The arithmetic is ours. Clients only: on Kahunas, team members take seats too, and Fitsly's feature list includes "Sub-coaches on your account" without saying how they count toward a tier. Both are in US dollars.

One thing the table hides: Kahunas gates features by seat count, and Fitsly says it does not. On Kahunas, recipes, automations and leads arrive at 25 seats, team seats at 50, communities at 100 and the branded app at 200. Fitsly's page says the whole product is in every tier. Kahunas also says coaches on an earlier plan keep it: "You keep your current plan, price and features until you choose a seat plan yourself on Your plan. We never move you."

Both offer a 14-day free trial, take payment details at signup and say nothing is charged until it ends. On these two price lists, neither is lower across the board. By our arithmetic, counting clients only, Kahunas is lower at 1 to 7, 21 to 27, 76 to 105 and 126 to 418 clients, Fitsly is lower at 8 to 20, 28 to 75, 107 to 125 and 420 to 500, and the two match at 106 (USD 159) and 419 (USD 419).

Sources, all checked 12 November 2026: Kahunas pricing, homepage and 2.0 post; Fitsly pricing, training, nutrition, forms and branding.

The client app reaches a phone differently: a web app installed from your link on Kahunas, native iOS and Android apps on Fitsly. On training and nutrition both publish a full toolset; the gap is gating.

your name on the app

Which one gives you a branded app?

Kahunas says its branded app is "included from 200 clients": your logo and brand colour replace the Kahunas defaults across the client app, the login page and the coach portal, and it installs from your link, so there is no App Store or Google Play listing, developer account or store review (kahunas.io/features/branded-app, checked 12 November 2026). At 200 clients on the monthly ladder that is 200 x USD 1.00 = USD 200.

Fitsly sells it in two steps. On every tier its branding page says your business name, colour, logo and font carry through the client app. The store version is an add-on: its pricing page says "Put your own app in the App Store and Google Play" for USD 199 a month on top of the plan (Fitsly labels this add-on "early bird"), and its white label page says the app goes live in about 14 days, lists no build fee, and notes that Apple (US$99 a year) and Google (US$25 once) charge for developer accounts and that "app updates are $100 each" (checked 12 November 2026). At 200 clients that is USD 229 for the tier plus USD 199 for the add-on, USD 428 in total.

So the question is whether you need a listing under your own name in the stores. If you need a store listing, Fitsly sells one as an add-on, and Kahunas's branded app page describes a web app with no store listing. If branding inside the app is enough, Fitsly includes it on every tier, and Kahunas's seat plans include it from 200 clients; at 200 clients that is USD 229 on Fitsly against USD 200 on Kahunas.

who takes a cut

What do Kahunas and Fitsly take from client payments?

Kahunas states "0% commission on your sales". Clients pay through your own Stripe or PayPal account, and you pay only the usual Stripe or PayPal fees. Source: kahunas.io/pricing, checked 12 November 2026.

Fitsly sells packages and subscriptions through Stripe, with trials, coupons and invoices, in nine currencies according to its payments page. Its terms say Fitsly deducts a platform fee, "currently 2% of each payment, in addition to the payment processing fees charged by Stripe". By default it is added to the client's checkout as a "Service fee" line, or you can absorb it per package. The payments page also says connecting Stripe opens once you are on a paid plan, not during the trial (all checked 12 November 2026).

As an example, 2% of USD 3,000 in client payments is USD 60 a month, before Stripe's fees. By default Fitsly adds it to the client's checkout; if you absorb it, it comes out of your payout. Kahunas states no commission on the same sales.

what each company says

What do they say about moving clients in and out?

Fitsly's homepage has a section titled "Moving from Trainerize, Everfit or Kahunas?". It says: "Switch at your own pace. We'll show you how to set up your programs, templates and clients in Fitsly, so nobody loses a day of progress along the way." That is Fitsly's own statement (checked 12 November 2026). Fitsly also publishes a guide, How to migrate clients to a new coaching platform (checked 12 November 2026). Neither page describes an import tool or which data comes across, so ask Fitsly directly.

Kahunas's help centre describes two kinds of data copy (responding to a client data request, checked 12 November 2026). When a client asks for a copy of their data, the owner logs the request and Kahunas emails the client a link to a zip file, which works for 72 hours. Kahunas says "Chat messages are not in the copy yet". For a copy of your own coach account data, Kahunas support emails download links within one month. Steps: how to export data from Kahunas.

Whichever platform you pick, plan for client payment subscriptions. They live in your own Stripe or PayPal account on Kahunas, and a new platform will need them set up again. Our step-by-step switch guide covers the order to do it in, so nobody is charged twice.

our product, stated plainly

Where Coachway fits, and where it does not.

We build Coachway, so read this section with that in mind. It fits a coach who coaches in more than English, wants each check-in in one card in the chat, and wants payments in their own Stripe.

  • Languages. Each client picks their own language in the client app. Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish and German were reviewed by native-speaking coaches. Neither Kahunas nor Fitsly states app languages on the pages we read.
  • Library. 1,700+ library exercises with demos, plus your own by upload or link, and about 3.7 million foods to search, with barcode scanning. Clients can log a meal from a photo: the AI gives an estimate, and nothing is logged until the client taps Add.
  • Check-ins. Weight, photos and answers land in one check-in card in the chat, with the change since last time. You reply in the same thread and mark it reviewed.
  • Payments. Clients pay into your own Stripe account. Coachway takes 2.4% per transaction, plus Stripe's fees. That is more than Kahunas states (0%) and more than Fitsly's current 2% platform fee.

It does not fit in four places. There is no white-label app: your logo and colours go on the progress images you share, not inside the client app, so if you need your own store listing, look at Fitsly. There is no free plan; the trial takes a card. Price: on list prices Kahunas and Fitsly both cost less than Coachway at 10, 25, 50 and 100 clients, and Kahunas costs less per client than we do as you grow. And the move: client payment subscriptions do not move, you set them up again on your own Stripe, and we tell you what can move before anything changes.

questions coaches actually ask

Frequently asked.

Is Kahunas or Fitsly cheaper?

It depends on your client count. Counting clients only, Fitsly is lower at 10 clients (USD 39 against USD 50) and at 50 clients (USD 69 against USD 100). Kahunas is lower at 25 clients (USD 62.50 against USD 69) and at 100 clients (USD 150 against USD 159). All figures are monthly, in US dollars, as published on 12 November 2026.

Does Fitsly publish its prices?

Yes. Its pricing page shows USD 39 a month for up to 20 active clients, 69 for 50, 99 for 75, 159 for 125, 229 for 200 and 419 for 500. For more than 500 clients it asks you to contact it for a quote. A white label add-on is USD 199 a month on top (listed as an early-bird price).

Can I have my own app in the App Store with Kahunas or Fitsly?

Fitsly says yes, as a white label add-on at USD 199 a month (listed as an early-bird price): your own App Store and Google Play listing, live in about 14 days. Kahunas offers a branded app from 200 clients, but it is a web app that installs from your link, with no store listing, according to its branded app page. Coachway has no white-label app.

What does each platform take from my client payments?

Kahunas states 0% commission on your sales. The Fitsly terms set a platform fee, currently 2% of each payment through Fitsly Payments, in addition to Stripe fees. By default it is added to the client's checkout as a service fee; you can choose to absorb it. Coachway takes 2.4% per transaction plus the Stripe fees.

Can I move my clients from Kahunas to Fitsly?

Fitsly says on its homepage that it will show you how to set up your programs, templates and clients in Fitsly. Ask it which data it can bring across from Kahunas. Kahunas documents a copy of a client's data that is sent to the client when the client asks for it (chat messages are not in it yet, Kahunas says), and a copy of your own account data from support within one month.

How do the nutrition tools compare?

Both cover meal plans and food logging. Fitsly lists nutrition on every tier, with macro targets, recipes and barcode scanning. Kahunas lists nutrition plans from 3 seats and recipes from 25 seats, and says its meal plans draw on over 1.5 million foods. Fitsly states no food count on the pages we read.

Where does Coachway fit if I am leaving Kahunas?

Coachway fits if you want a client app where each client picks their own language, 1,700+ library exercises, and check-ins as one card in the chat, with payments on your own Stripe. It does not fit if you need your own app in the App Store, a free plan, or the lowest price.
