On top comes the marketplace: 20% on the first purchase of a new customer who finds you through the Mindbody app, at most 30. Two locations cost twice as much. terminio.ai starts at €0 with 50 bookings a month, Pro costs €19.99 a month, with no commission and cancellable monthly. **Does terminio.ai manage memberships and class packs?** No. terminio.ai books appointments and class places at a fixed time, with a reminder and, if you want, prepayment via Stripe. Monthly subscriptions, class passes and contract terms it does not manage. If your studio lives on those, Mindbody or another membership system is the right tool for that. **How does the marketplace and the 20% work?** Mindbody has an app of its own in which people search for studios and classes. If a new customer finds you there, 20% of their first purchase goes to Mindbody, at most 30. That is reach you pay for. terminio.ai has no marketplace: your customers come through your link, your Google profile and Instagram, and every booking stays commission-free. **Does Mindbody have WhatsApp reminders?** WhatsApp is not confirmed on Mindbody's website; that does not mean there is nothing, only that we cannot find it there. terminio.ai sends reminders by WhatsApp from your own number, five a month on the Free plan, unlimited on Pro and with no cost per message. **AI Concierge or terminio.ai's phone assistant?** Both answer the phone. Mindbody offers the AI Concierge as an add-on, so on top of the plan price. With terminio.ai the phone assistant is included in Pro Voice at €129.99 a month, with a German number; it takes the call, books straight into your calendar and sends the confirmation by WhatsApp. **Can I use Mindbody and terminio.ai in parallel?** Yes: Mindbody for memberships and new customers from the app, terminio.ai for personal training, trial sessions and class places without an account and without commission. Both calendars run independently; in terminio.ai you block the times Mindbody hands out. --- terminio.ai is online appointment booking for small businesses with WhatsApp reminders and an AI phone assistant, from €0 a month, hosted in the EU.
