Who should switch from Magicline — and who shouldn't?
We are not the best fit for every studio. Here is an honest take — so you don't talk yourself into a painful switch.
Switch if …
- You want transparent, publicly listed pricing instead of per-location quotes and setup fees from Magicline.
- You run a small or mid-size studio that will never use most Magicline enterprise modules.
- You want a month-to-month commitment, not a 12–36 month contract lock-in.
- You want Stripe as your payment processor with payouts straight to your own business account, no provider trustee logic in between.
- You want to go live today, not after a multi-week sales and implementation cycle.
Stay on Magicline if …
- You run a chain of 10+ locations and need group-wide reporting, a dedicated account manager and deep enterprise SLAs.
- Hardware integration (door access, turnstiles, trainer tablets, locker locks) is part of your day-to-day operations.
- You need a native iOS/Android app in the store under your own brand, not just a PWA.

Common concerns about switching
The real reasons studios delay switching — and how easybook.studio answers each.
My Magicline contract still has 18 months left — does it make sense to switch now?
Magicline contracts typically run 12–36 months. You can run easybook.studio in parallel, migrate your data ahead of time and only cancel Magicline on its next renewal date. No early-exit penalty because the contract simply ends on schedule — and your cutover is already fully rehearsed.
We run multiple locations — can easybook.studio handle that?
Multiple locations are modeled as separate studios or rooms inside a tenant, with per-location schedules, instructors and products. Group-wide reporting across all locations is less complete than Magicline enterprise; if you need centralized daily KPIs across 10+ branches, Magicline remains the better fit.
We use Magicline hardware (door access, turnstiles, trainer tablets) — will that work with easybook.studio?
easybook.studio focuses on online booking, memberships and payments — not hardware integration. If door access, turnstiles or hardware check-in are business-critical, stay on Magicline (or a comparable enterprise system). Pure online/studio workflows without hardware are fully covered.
Will I get a member app like the Magicline app?
easybook.studio runs as a Progressive Web App on any smartphone — members book, view passes and cancel just like in a native app, but under your own domain and brand. We do not ship a native iOS/Android app like Magicline. If a true native app is non-negotiable, Magicline is the better fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Magicline cost, and how much can easybook.studio save?
Magicline does not publish a price list — studios receive a per-location quote via sales, typically in the €99–249/month range plus a setup fee and module add-ons, locked under multi-year contracts. easybook.studio is a flat rate from €2.50/month (early adopter, regular €10) with no setup fee, no booking fees and month-to-month — listed openly on the pricing page.
Can I migrate my member and contract data from Magicline?
Yes. Inside the Magicline admin you export members, contracts, sales and bookings as CSV. Send us the exports and we handle the mapping onto easybook.studio fields and run a test import before go-live. Contact us for an easy data migration.
What is the best Magicline alternative for small fitness and class studios?
For small and mid-size studios without multi-location chain complexity, a transparent flat rate is almost always cheaper and faster to ship than a per-location-negotiated Magicline contract. easybook.studio costs from €2.50/month (early adopter, regular €10) regardless of member or booking volume, is GDPR-compliant EU-hosted, and is live in 30 minutes without a sales cycle.
Which Magicline features does easybook.studio not match?
We cover the studio core — schedule, memberships, class passes, waitlists, cancellation policies, Stripe payments, team management, reporting and booking widget. What we deliberately do not offer: hardware integrations for door access, turnstiles and locker locks, native iOS/Android apps under your brand, and group-wide reporting for chains of 10+ locations.
How long is a Magicline contract and can I switch early?
Magicline contracts typically run 12, 24 or 36 months, often auto-renewing 12 months further without a timely cancellation. easybook.studio is month-to-month — you can keep Magicline running in parallel, migrate all your data and switch on the next regular cancellation date with no penalty.
Does easybook.studio support memberships, class passes and waitlists like Magicline?
Yes. Memberships, class passes and drop-in tickets are managed natively, with automatic renewals via Stripe. Waitlists auto-fill open spots in registration order. Per-class cancellation policies define how late participants can cancel for free, with a fee, or not at all — including automatic class-pass debit handling.
Does easybook.studio work with Magicline hardware like door access and turnstiles?
No — easybook.studio focuses purely on online booking, memberships and payments, not hardware control. If door access, turnstiles, locker locks or hardware check-in are business-critical for your operation, stay on Magicline. Pure online/studio workflows without a hardware layer are fully covered.
How long does the migration from Magicline to easybook.studio take?
Most studios are live within 1–3 weeks: day 1 sign up and run alongside the live Magicline contract, days 2–7 CSV export and assisted import, week 2 swap the booking widget and cancel Magicline on its next renewal date. Larger studios with custom member workflows typically plan for 3 weeks.
