Arketa vs OfferingTree (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Arketa if

• Fits if you're a solo yoga or fitness instructor selling live classes and on-demand video
• Works for boutique Pilates, yoga and spin studios willing to get a price on a demo

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you sell a lot on Individual, as each sale carries a 3% fee on top of Stripe's 2.9% + $0.30
• Tight if anyone helps you run classes, because Individual allows a single team member login
• Not for you if you want campaigns or a branded app without a sales call: they need Studio Growth and Studio Suite
• Skip it if you want a full price list, as only Individual is priced and the Studio plans are quoted on a demo
• Watch out: the trial's length isn't stated, and there's no free plan to fall back on

Pick OfferingTree if

• Fits if you teach alone and want a booking site and classes in one place
• Works for studios of 3 to 6 that want staff and payroll reports

Look elsewhere if

• Watch out: Essentials adds a 2.9% transaction fee and has only 2 automations
• Watch out: a branded app is $100 a month and two-way texting $25
• Tight if you add staff, as the individual plans cover 1 person and studios jump to $100
• Pricey if you need waitlists or text reminders, which start on Pro at $49
• Skip it if you want a free plan, as there isn't one
