miaforo’s prices exclude VAT. Wodbuster’s pricing page does not say whether theirs include it.

Checked on 30 September 2026 against Wodbuster’s own page.
What each one does
Your members’ app
miaforo
They use the browser on their phone and add the icon to their home screen. No app store.
Wodbuster
Their page cites more than a million downloads of their app. An app with your gym’s brand on Android and iOS costs €700 extra.
Taking payment from members
miaforo
Charge as you do today and record it on the member’s file. The list puts whoever owes the month first.
Wodbuster
You record payments by hand, or set up a virtual card terminal so members pay in the app, save their card and pay by direct debit.
Getting started
miaforo
Paste your member list or upload a CSV. Each member gets an invitation.
Wodbuster
Their team sets up your centre in 24 hours and migrates users and fees.
Your data and API
miaforo
Download the gym’s data in one file and the photos in another.
An API is coming soon.
Wodbuster
It has an API to sync your data with your CRM, your accounting or Excel, and to connect door access systems.
If you use a spreadsheet and WhatsApp today
The timetable lives in a sheet, bookings in the group, and who has paid in your head. Nothing matches, so you answer the same questions by hand every week.
What changes with miaforo?
Timetable, bookings, payments and attendance in one place. Members book from their phone, and when someone cancels, the place goes on its own to whoever has waited longest.
And the WhatsApp group?
Write to the whole gym or only to those booked on a class, and each member sees it when they sign in. Call off a class, and everyone booked gets your reason.
Request a demo for your gym
Tell us about your gym, box or studio. We show you how bookings and fees work and, if it fits, help you open the Free plan.
