Trainerize pricing 2026: plans, add-ons, and real cost.
Trainerize costs USD 0 for 1 client, USD 10/mo for 2 clients (Grow), USD 25 to 250/mo for 5 to 200 clients (Pro) and USD 275/mo per location on Studio Plus, billed month to month (checked 4 November 2026). The catch is the add-ons: taking payments and advanced nutrition are separate line items on Grow and Pro, and the branded app is a one-time extra on Pro, so a working coach usually pays more than the headline. This guide lays out the full ladder, which plan fits a solo trainer or a small gym, the add-ons in plain numbers, and how the price compares with TrueCoach, My PT Hub and Coachway, our own product.

the short answer
As of 4 November 2026, Trainerize costs USD 0 for 1 client (Basic, free forever), USD 10/mo for 2 clients (Grow), USD 25/mo for 5 clients up to USD 250/mo for 200 (Pro) and USD 275/mo per location for 500 clients (Studio Plus), billed monthly; annual billing saves 10% (USD 9, 23 to 225 and 248). Studio Max is USD 380/mo (USD 342 annual) for 1,000 clients. Most coaches pay more than the headline: Stripe payments (USD 10/mo), advanced nutrition (USD 20-45/mo) are add-ons on Grow and Pro, and the branded app is USD 169 one-time on Pro only; all are included on Studio.
All figures are USD from the Trainerize pricing page, checked on 4 November 2026; check the vendor pricing page for current rates. This is the dedicated pricing breakdown - for the features, gaps and our overall take, see the full Trainerize review.
What it costs elsewhere: Trainerize Pro month to month is USD 25/mo for 5 clients, USD 79 for 20 (the 30-client band) and USD 135 for 50 (USD 23, 71 and 122 on annual billing). Coachway, which is our product, is USD 79, 229 and 529 at the same counts (EUR 69, 204 and 474). Its price is EUR 69/mo incl. 5 clients + EUR 9 per extra (USD 79 + 10, GBP 59 + 8), with nutrition, check-ins, the client app and payments in one plan and no separate payments add-on; built-in payments cost 2.4 % per transaction. On list price Trainerize Pro is cheaper at all three counts, even with its payments (USD 10/mo) and Advanced Nutrition (USD 20 to 45/mo) add-ons on top. Coachway is the pick if you coach nutrition and training together and want a client app in your client's own language. Each figure is the vendor's own list price; currencies are not converted.
What are the Trainerize pricing plans?
Trainerize (ABC Trainerize, based in Vancouver, Canada) bills itself as "The #1 coaching app to better engage your clients" and publishes four named tiers. Each one is gated by a client cap, and on the Pro plan the price rises as that cap goes up. The Trainerize pricing page lists Grow at USD 10/mo, Pro from USD 25/mo, and Studio Plus at USD 275/mo per location, re-checked on 4 November 2026. Here is the verified ladder in USD.
| Plan | Price | Client cap | What to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic (Free) | USD 0 | Up to 1 client | A genuine free plan, but capped at a single client, so it is really for trying the product. |
| Grow | USD 10/mo (USD 9 annual) | Up to 2 clients | The cheapest paid entry. The 2-client cap means most working coaches outgrow it almost immediately. |
| Pro | USD 25-250/mo (USD 23-225 annual) | Up to 5, scaling to up to 200 clients | The plan most real coaching businesses land on. The price climbs as the client cap rises across the band. |
| Studio Plus | USD 275/mo per location (USD 248 annual) | Up to 500 clients | For gyms and multi-coach studios. The per-location pricing adds up fast if you run several sites. |
| Studio Max | USD 380/mo per location (USD 342 annual) | Up to 1,000 clients | The largest self-serve tier. Above 1,000 clients, or from 5 locations, Trainerize quotes Enterprise pricing. |
The first price in each row is month to month; the figure in brackets is the annual-billing rate, which is what Trainerize's pricing page shows by default and which saves 10%. Pro is a sliding scale rather than one price: Pro 5 is USD 25/mo, while Pro 50 (up to 50 clients) is USD 135/mo, so the base cost climbs as your client list grows.
Inside Pro, the price steps with the number of client seats you pick. Month to month (checked on Trainerize's pricing page on 4 November 2026) Pro costs USD 25 a month for 5 clients, USD 50 for 15, USD 79 for 30, USD 135 for 50, USD 180 for 75, USD 225 for 100 and USD 250 for 200; on annual billing that is USD 23, 45, 71, 122, 162, 203 and 225. Past 200 clients you move to Studio. Seat pricing like this rises with client count rather than with your coaching prices; we compare the two models in seat-based pricing vs a cut of client revenue.
Trainerize also offers a 30-day free trial with unlimited clients and no credit card. When it ends, the account drops back to the free plan (1 coaching client) unless you upgrade, and the paid add-ons are not part of the trial. Pricing changes, so confirm the current figures on the vendor pricing page before you commit. For the wider field, see our ranked list of the best online coaching platforms for fitness coaches. If you want to set these tiers beside a per-client rival, we break down Kahunas pricing and My PT Hub pricing in the same detail, or rank all three side by side in TrueCoach vs Trainerize vs My PT Hub. For another tier-based fitness platform, our HubFit pricing breakdown covers its plans the same way.
Which Trainerize plan fits a single trainer or a small gym, and is it worth the price?
- Trying it out (1 client): the free Basic plan. It never expires and needs no card, but is limited to one coaching client, with the client app, workout programs, basic messaging and habit coaching (the Trainerize FAQ also lists basic nutrition tracking). The 30-day trial unlocks unlimited clients; afterwards the account drops back to Basic unless you pick a paid plan.
- A single trainer with 3 to 15 clients: Pro 5 (USD 25/mo) or Pro 15 (USD 50/mo). Grow (USD 10/mo) stops at 2 clients. Add Stripe payments (USD 10/mo) if clients pay you in the app and Advanced Nutrition (USD 20/mo at this size) if you write meal plans, and a solo trainer pays about USD 55 to 80/mo.
- A small gym or studio with 30 to 100 clients: Trainerize itself groups this range as "small business". Pro 30 to Pro 100 costs USD 79 to 225/mo. With payments, Advanced Nutrition (USD 45/mo at this size), Business and Video Coaching, the add-ons come to up to USD 90/mo (less if the Business add-on already covers payments and video, which the Trainerize pricing page does not make clear), so at 75 clients Pro costs about USD 250 to 270 against USD 275 for Studio Plus, which includes every add-on, a fully white-labelled app and up to 500 clients per location. If you need all of those add-ons, Studio Plus is about level at 75 clients and the better buy from 100; with only payments and nutrition, Pro stays cheaper up to 75 clients and the two meet at about 100 (USD 280 against 275).
- Is it worth it? For a workout-first trainer who coaches in English, yes: the price per client is low, the client app is rated 4.9 stars on the US App Store (69,249 ratings, 4 November 2026) and clients use it for free. It is weaker value if nutrition is half of what you sell, because meal planning is a paid add-on, and Trainerize is English only.

Month-to-month list prices from each vendor's own pricing page, checked on 4 November 2026; currencies are not converted. My PT Hub showed us EUR prices and was running 50% off Premium for the first 3 months. On list price Trainerize Pro is the cheapest at 5 clients. From about 16 clients My PT Hub's flat Premium price is the cheapest (also USD 59 in its own USD price data); between the other two, TrueCoach is cheaper at 20 clients and Trainerize at 50. Coachway is the most expensive at every count. It is one plan with every feature (workouts, meal plans with 1,100+ recipes, client food logging, check-ins, chat, the client app in eight languages), with no add-ons; built-in payments cost 2.4% per transaction. It suits coaches who sell training and nutrition together and want the client app in their client's own language; it is not built for gym class booking or memberships. The full side-by-side is in TrueCoach vs Trainerize vs My PT Hub, with the detail in TrueCoach pricing and My PT Hub pricing.
The three add-ons that change the real Trainerize cost.
The plan price is only part of the story. Three of the features most coaches consider essential are sold separately on the Grow and Pro plans (the branded app on Pro only), which is why the advertised price and the bill on your card rarely match. Here are the three, in plain numbers.
-
Stripe Integrated Payments
USD 10/moRequired to take client payments inside Trainerize on the Grow and Pro plans, and not available on the free plan. It is included on Studio Plus. You connect your own Stripe account, but the integration itself is a recurring line item on the lower tiers.
-
Custom Branded App
USD 169 one-timeThe Pro branded app is a one-time fee of USD 169 that adds your logo and colours to the Trainerize app; it is not offered on the free plan or Grow. Studio Plus includes a fully white-labelled app listed under your brand name. It is a single payment rather than a subscription, but it is still a separate cost on top of Pro.
-
Advanced Nutrition Coaching
USD 20 to 45/moClient meal and macro tracking is included from Grow, but meal planning is an add-on: USD 20/mo on Grow, Pro 5 and Pro 15, and USD 45/mo on Pro 30 to Pro 200. It adds the Smart Meal Planner, 2,400+ recipes, 7-day meal plans and shopping lists. It is included on Studio Plus.
Two more add-ons sit on the same menu: Business (USD 25/mo: prospect scheduling, shareable booking links, referrals, product selling) and Video Coaching (USD 10/mo). Studio Plus bundles all five in, which is part of why it is priced at USD 275/mo per location (USD 248 on annual billing). On Grow and Pro, treat each add-on as a real cost when you compare platforms, not a footnote.
What does Trainerize really cost?
The honest way to budget for any coaching platform is to take the plan price and add the features you will actually switch on. Trainerize cost works like this in practice: say you are on the Pro plan, you take client payments inside the app, and you want the deeper nutrition tooling. Your base Pro plan starts from USD 25/mo and rises with your client cap. On top of that, Stripe Integrated Payments is USD 10/mo and Advanced Nutrition is USD 20 to 45/mo. The branded app is a separate one-time USD 169 in the month you add it.
So a plan advertised from USD 25/mo can sit closer to USD 55 to 80/mo once payments and nutrition are live, with the app fee landing on top in month one. None of this is hidden, and Trainerize publishes its tiers clearly. The point is simply that the headline number is the floor, not the all-in cost. If you have been surprised by your bill, the add-ons are almost always why.
How much is Trainerize per month, all-in?
For a typical working coach on Pro who takes payments and wants the deeper nutrition tooling, the monthly Trainerize cost builds up like this. Every figure below is drawn straight from the tiers and add-ons already listed on this page.
| Line item | Typical cost |
|---|---|
| Trainerize's Pro plan (base, from up to 5 clients) | from USD 25/mo (USD 23 on annual billing) |
| Trainerize's Stripe Integrated Payments | + USD 10/mo on Trainerize |
| Trainerize's Advanced Nutrition Coaching | + USD 20 to 45/mo on Trainerize |
| Typical recurring all-in | ≈ USD 55 to 80/mo |
| Trainerize's Custom Branded App (month one only) | + USD 169 one-time on Trainerize |
The base Pro price also climbs as your client cap rises across the band, so a larger client list lifts every line above it. Confirm current rates on the vendor pricing page before you commit.
what you pay vs Coachway
That roughly USD 55 to 80/mo recurring for 5 to 15 clients (plus USD 169 in month one) is the honest number to hold up against alternatives. Coachway is our product. It folds payments, the client app and nutrition into one plan at EUR 69/mo for up to 5 clients, then EUR 9 per additional active client, with no add-ons; built-in payments cost 2.4 % per transaction. At 5, 20 and 50 clients it costs more than Trainerize Pro with payments and nutrition added (USD 79, 229 and 529 against USD 55, 134 and 190). If you are pricing the two against each other, the line-by-line breakdown is in Coachway vs Trainerize; if you want the wider shortlist of cheaper or more feature-complete options, Trainerize alternatives lines them up side by side.
Price Coachway at your client count - 14 days freeOne more cost line that is easy to miss: language. Trainerize is available in English only, per its own help center. There is no multi-language interface for you or your clients. That is not a fee, but for a coach serving Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, German, Dutch, or Spanish speakers, it is a real limit on the client experience, and it is the gap the next section is about.
how Coachway compares
How Coachway pricing compares.
Coachway is our product, so read this with that in mind. Short verdict: Pick Coachway over Trainerize if you coach nutrition and training together and want payments, nutrition and a client app in your client's own language in one plan instead of add-ons; stay with Trainerize if you coach workouts only, in English, and want the lowest seat price or the deepest North American exercise library.
Coachway prices differently on purpose. It is EUR 69/mo for up to 5 clients, then EUR 9 per additional active client, with all features included rather than sold as add-ons. The things Trainerize charges separately for live in the base price: the per-client check-in forms and Power Panel review, the workout builder (supersets, dropsets, AMRAP, tempo, RPE, warm-up sets, per-set logging, rest timer) with a 1,800+ exercise library with video demos, the meal planner with 1,100+ recipes on the coach side, in-app chat and voice notes, step tracking, progress photos, PDF export, and the client app on iOS and Android. There is no separate payments add-on: you keep your own Stripe account so client payments flow directly to you, and the subscription takes no share of your coaching revenue; built-in payments cost 2.4% per transaction. The client app is also available in Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, German, Dutch, Spanish and English, which is the native-language coverage Trainerize does not offer. 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 want one predictable per-client price with payments, the client app, and nutrition included, and you serve clients across the Nordics or DACH. If your priority is the deepest North American exercise library specifically, Trainerize may still suit you.

Which should you choose?
There is no single right answer. It comes down to how you want to be charged and who your clients are. Here is the fair way to land it.
- You want the cheapest possible paid entry and only have a client or two. Trainerize. Grow at USD 10/mo for 2 clients is hard to beat on headline price, as long as you do not need the branded app (Pro only) and are fine paying USD 10/mo extra if you take payments in the app. Heading toward five clients? See the cheapest platform for five clients.
- You want the deepest North American exercise library and a long track record. Trainerize. Its workout-first library and program builder are among the most established in the category.
- You want everything in one predictable price with no add-on surprises. Coachway. Payments, the client app, check-ins, and the meal planner are all in the base EUR 69/mo for up to 5 clients, plus EUR 9 per additional client.
- Your clients speak Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, German, Dutch, or Spanish. Coachway. Trainerize is English-only; Coachway's client app is available in all of those languages, with the Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish and German versions reviewed by native-speaking coaches.
- You run a gym or multi-coach studio. Trainerize. Studio Plus at USD 275/mo per location is built for that scale and bundles the add-ons in. Our studio software guide compares studio suites with coaching platforms.

Trainerize pricing, frequently asked.
How much does Trainerize cost?
As of 4 November 2026, Trainerize costs USD 0 for 1 client (Basic), USD 10/mo for up to 2 clients (Grow), USD 25 to 250/mo on Pro for 5 to 200 clients, and USD 275/mo per location on Studio Plus for up to 500 clients (Studio Max USD 380 for up to 1,000), billed month to month. Annual billing saves 10%: Grow USD 9, Pro USD 23 to 225, Studio Plus USD 248, Studio Max USD 342. Most coaches pay more than the headline, because Stripe payments (USD 10/mo), Advanced Nutrition (USD 20 to 45/mo) and the branded app (USD 169 one-time on Pro) are paid add-ons on Grow and Pro.
Is Trainerize free?
Partly. The Basic plan is free forever for 1 coaching client with no credit card, with the client app, workout programs, basic messaging and habit coaching (the Trainerize FAQ also lists basic nutrition tracking). There is also a 30-day free trial with unlimited clients and no card; when it ends, the account drops back to the free plan unless you pick a paid plan, and the paid add-ons are not part of the trial. So the free plan is for trying Trainerize with one client, not for running a coaching business.
Which Trainerize plan is best for a single trainer or a small gym?
A single online trainer with 3 to 15 clients fits Pro 5 or Pro 15 (USD 25 or 50/mo, USD 23 or 45 on annual billing); Grow (USD 10/mo) only works while you have 2 clients. A small gym or studio with a few trainers and 30 to 100 clients sits in Pro 30 to Pro 100 (USD 79 to 225/mo), but once it needs payments, Advanced Nutrition, the Business add-on and video calls, those add-ons cost up to USD 90/mo on top (less if the Business add-on already covers payments and video, which the Trainerize pricing page does not make clear), so at about 75 clients Pro with every add-on costs roughly the same as Studio Plus at USD 275/mo per location (500 clients, every add-on and a fully white-labelled app included), and from 100 clients Studio Plus is cheaper.
Is Trainerize worth the price, and how does it compare to other coach apps?
For a workout-first trainer coaching in English it is good value: Pro costs USD 25, 79 and 135/mo at 5, 20 and 50 clients, and its client app is rated 4.9 on the US App Store. It is less good value if you coach nutrition, because Advanced Nutrition (USD 20 to 45/mo) and Stripe payments (USD 10/mo) lift those figures to about USD 55, 134 and 190. TrueCoach costs USD 29.98, 69.98 and 164.98 at the same counts, My PT Hub Premium is EUR 59 for unlimited clients (the cheapest from about 16 clients), and Coachway (our product) is USD 79, 229 and 529 with every feature in one plan. On list price Coachway is the most expensive of the four; it suits coaches who sell training and nutrition together and want the client app in their client's own language.
Does the Trainerize branded app cost extra?
On the Pro plan, yes. The Custom Branded App is a one-time fee of USD 169 on top of your Pro subscription and adds your logo and colours to the Trainerize app. It is not available on the free plan or Grow. On Studio Plus a fully white-labelled app listed under your brand name is included at no separate cost. Trainerize notes that publishing to the Apple App Store yourself needs an Apple Developer account (USD 99 a year, paid to Apple).
What is the real all-in cost of Trainerize?
Take the plan price, then add the features you will use. A typical Pro coach adds USD 10/mo for Stripe payments, USD 20 to 45/mo for Advanced Nutrition, and a one-time USD 169 for the branded app; the Business add-on (USD 25/mo) and Video Coaching (USD 10/mo) are extra again. So a Pro plan advertised from USD 25/mo lands at about USD 55/mo for 5 clients and USD 80/mo for 15 once payments and nutrition are on, with the app fee on top in month one.
Why is my Trainerize bill higher than the advertised price?
Because the headline plan price does not include the add-ons most coaches need. Taking payments (USD 10/mo on Grow and Pro), the branded app (USD 169 one-time on Pro), and advanced nutrition (USD 20 to 45/mo) are separate from the base subscription. The Pro plan price also rises as your client cap increases across the band, so adding clients pushes the base cost up too. The all-in figure is the plan price plus every add-on you actually use.
What language is Trainerize available in?
Trainerize is available in English only, per its own help center. You can customize program, workout, and exercise text yourself, but there is no multi-language interface for the coach or the client. If you coach in Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, German, Dutch, or Spanish, a platform with a native-language UI will feel very different to your clients.
How does Coachway pricing compare to Trainerize?
Coachway is our product. It costs EUR 69/mo including up to 5 active clients, then EUR 9 per extra client (USD 79 + 10, GBP 59 + 8), one plan with every feature rather than add-ons: the workout builder, meal planner, check-ins, chat and the client app in eight languages are all in the price. At 5, 20 and 50 clients that is USD 79, 229 and 529 a month, against Trainerize Pro at USD 25, 79 and 135, so Trainerize is cheaper on list price even with its payments and nutrition add-ons. Client payments run through your own Stripe account; the subscription takes no share of your coaching revenue, and built-in payments cost 2.4% per transaction. Coachway has a 14-day free trial (card required, nothing charged today); it has no free plan.
