How much does Gym Manager Hub cost compared to GGMS?▾
GGMS's lowest sticker price is ₹349/month, but many of its tiers require 6-month to 5-year commitments (for example, ₹6,995 for a 5-year plan). Gym Manager Hub offers transparent monthly pricing with no long-term lock-in. Compare the feature set at similar price points — Gym Manager Hub's standard plans include WhatsApp Business per-gym, GST invoices, biometric face recognition and AI diet planning.
Will I lose anything switching from GGMS?▾
GGMS is a mature platform with features like fingerprint biometric integration and a branded app offering. If your current gym relies specifically on fingerprint hardware you've already paid for, that's the main thing to evaluate — Gym Manager Hub uses face recognition and QR code check-in instead of fingerprint. For most other workflows, Gym Manager Hub is a feature-for-feature upgrade.
How long does it take to set up Gym Manager Hub after leaving GGMS?▾
Typical setup takes 30 to 90 minutes for a single-branch gym — longer for multi-branch. The flow: create your account, import members and plans via CSV (we help), connect your WhatsApp Business Account (2 minutes), set up the biometric kiosk on any tablet, configure GST and payment methods. You can run in parallel with GGMS for 7 days during the free trial to validate before switching fully.
Does Gym Manager Hub have WhatsApp Business per-gym?▾
Yes. Each gym connects its own WhatsApp Business Account via Meta's official Embedded Signup flow in about 2 minutes. Renewal reminders, birthday wishes, payment receipts and class reminders are sent from your gym's own WhatsApp number using approved templates — not from a shared proxy number.
Is there a free trial?▾
Yes. 7-day free trial with no credit card. Full access to every feature during the trial — no demo mode, no feature locks. Start at gymmanagerhub.com/register.
