Wodify alternative
Wodify serves gyms, CrossFit boxes, martial arts and more, and its own help centre says UK payments run on card, not Direct Debit. Strong OS is built in the UK, where memberships are collected by Direct Debit.

Strong OS suits
A UK gym that wants memberships collected by Direct Debit, a timetable that fills itself, and the move done for it.
Wodify suits
Boxes where the whiteboard is the culture and workout tracking has to live in the same app as booking.
Cards expire, get replaced and get declined. A Direct Debit mandate doesn’t, so a UK membership book on Direct Debit is one you chase less.
Sterling, UK VAT, UK payment rails and support in your working day.
Capacity, waitlists that fill themselves, class packs, credits and memberships: the parts that decide whether your 6am fills.
If your members love their whiteboard app, keep it. We’d rather run the business side than make you give up something your community uses.
Wodify does things we don’t. Workout and performance tracking, the whiteboard side of a box: that culture is real and we’re not going to claim we replace it. Plenty of UK boxes run a tracking app alongside their booking software, and that’s a sensible setup.
Wodify’s own help centre states that in the UK, Wodify Payments doesn’t support bank account or Direct Debit payments, card only. Check it yourself before you take our word for it, and ask them whether that’s changed.
No, and that’s a real gap for a box rather than something we’ll talk around. Keep a dedicated tracking app alongside us if your members use one.
Yes: members, remaining credits and pass expiry dates move with you. If you’re collecting by card today, this is also the moment to move members onto Direct Debit.
If you run a schedule of coached sessions with capacity and memberships, yes. That’s exactly the shape it’s built for.
