Booking, membership and payment software for gyms, studios and other fitness businesses, founded in the UK.

Last checked: not yet (drafted 22 October 2026 from public information) · TeamUp is based in London, UK · goteamup.com

A draft we are still checking. We have not yet checked every statement about TeamUp against their own pages. Until we have, follow the source links and check TeamUp’s website for the current details.

Where TeamUp shines

  • UK-founded, with UK pricing and support
  • Prices published on its website
  • A straightforward product that many small UK studios know

When Joul is not the right fit yet

  • You need clients to pay online today: card payments and Direct Debit are still coming soon.
  • You want a marketplace to bring you new clients: we don’t run one.
  • You need your app in the App Store and Google Play this month: ours is built and on its way there.
