Why gyms leave Zen Planner

Pricing is quoted and scales with active member count — the bill grows in tier steps as your roster grows.

One price rule for every gym: 2% on memberships ($2 minimum), 3% on seminars/merch/drop-ins, $0 on POS. No tiers to decode, no quote to chase.

Onboarding is sales-assisted and typically runs multiple weeks before you're live.

Every feature included — white-labeled member app, AI churn alerts, waivers, training journal. Nothing is sold back to you as an add-on.

Funds route through their integrated payment processor, not a merchant account you own.

Done-for-you migration, included in the one-time $499 setup: we import your roster from your current software, set up Stripe Connect with you on a call, and theme the app to your brand.

What you gain

Questions

Does OLM work for both martial arts and CrossFit-style gyms?

OLM is purpose-built for martial arts (BJJ, judo, muay thai, karate, MMA, wrestling). For CrossFit affiliates, Zen Planner's WOD library and programming integrations are a real advantage that OLM doesn't replicate. If you run both, weigh which side of the business is bigger.

Do you support belt tracking the way Zen Planner supports skill tracking?

OLM's belt and stripe tracking is per-discipline with promotion lineage — designed specifically for martial arts rank progression. Zen Planner's skill-tracking is more generic; it works but isn't tuned for BJJ stripes or Dan grades.

What about Zen Planner's reporting?

Zen Planner has a long bench of dashboards for fitness-gym KPIs. OLM's reporting is more focused — MRR, churn, attendance by member, revenue per member, instructor utilization, and a few others — but every report is CSV-exportable and the data model is queryable. If you live in spreadsheets, OLM's exports get you there; if you need pre-built fitness-industry dashboards, Zen Planner has more.

Can I migrate from Zen Planner mid-contract?

Yes via CSV export. Member roster, active subscriptions, and contact info migrate cleanly. Skill / rank records typically need to be recreated since the data shape differs.
