Switch from Mindbody to Somelo
Modern spa & wellness ops. Flat pricing. No per-seat fees.
Mindbody helped you grow, but the per-location pricing keeps climbing and the UI hasn't materially changed in years. Somelo gives you the same depth — memberships, packages, commissions, marketing — without the surprise bills.

Why studios switch from Mindbody
Per-location pricing that compounds
Each new location, each new marketing add-on, each new SMS bundle stacks up. Somelo is one flat price per location with SMS included on Growth and Pro.
Marketplace pressure
The Mindbody marketplace pushes your clients toward competitors. Somelo doesn't have a marketplace — your clients book on your branded subdomain, full stop.
Slow product change
Real product updates land months apart. Somelo ships fast and the founders read every support thread.

How the migration works
- Export your clients, services, gift cards, and active memberships from Mindbody.
- Send us the export. We'll map your fields and stage everything in a test tenant.
- Review the staged data with us on a screen-share. We adjust anything that didn't map cleanly.
- Pick a cutover date. Bookings go live on Somelo with all your history intact.
- Old gift card balances and membership cycle dates carry over so clients never notice.
The migration questions everyone asks first
What if something breaks during the migration?
We run the import with you, not at you. Clients, services, memberships, packages, gift card balances, and visit history come in from your old vendor's export or CSV. Nothing goes live until you've checked the numbers side by side, and your old system stays readable the whole time.
How long am I down?
Most studios are live in under 24 hours once Stripe verification clears. You pick the cutover time; we usually do it after the last appointment of the day.
What happens to my existing booking links?
Your Somelo booking widget embeds on the same page and the same button as before, so the link you've printed and posted keeps working. Hosted booking links move to your own subdomain.
Do my saved cards on file transfer?
Sometimes. Card tokens can only move with your old processor's cooperation and a signed Stripe migration agreement — we coordinate it, but no vendor can guarantee it. When a card can't move, clients re-enter it once via a secure link and their membership picks up automatically.
You're small. What if you disappear?
Fair question. Every plan is month-to-month with a one-click export of your clients, appointments, payments, memberships, and notes in machine-readable form. Payments run through your own Stripe account, so your money and your payment relationships never depend on us existing.
Am I locked into a contract?
No. Month-to-month, cancel from Billing, no cancellation call and no exit fee.
Mindbody switching questions
Will I lose my client history?
No. Clients, notes, past appointments, payment history, and outstanding gift card balances all migrate.
How long does the cutover take?
Most studios complete it in 1–2 weeks from export to go-live. The riskiest week is yours to pick — we work around it.
What about my marketing automations?
Somelo includes marketing journeys. We help you rebuild your top 3 flows on Somelo before cutover.
Do I have to leave Mindbody Processing?
Yes — Somelo runs on Stripe Connect. We help you reconnect any saved cards via Stripe's standard re-tokenization.
