Why studios choose Arketa over Mindbody

Real humans, not a ticket queue

93% customer satisfaction score — real people who've worked behind the front desk, not a scripted bot. When something breaks on a Friday night, you reach someone who's done your job before.

100% white-labeled — your clients stay yours

There's no marketplace shopping your clients to competing studios. Every booking, every touchpoint, stays branded to you.

No hidden fees

Branded app, marketing automations, and on-demand video are all included at a flat 2.9% + $0.30 processing rate. On Mindbody, these are paid add-ons that can add hundreds per month to your bill.
