These prices use different currencies. Enter an exchange rate to see the subscription difference in CAD.

Include payment fees in your budget

Enter the rates from each payment provider’s quote, in CAD. This estimate assumes your gym covers all card fees. CornerDesk’s $1 CAD per card payment is included, alongside your Stripe rates. The service fee starts November 20, 2026; this is an ongoing budget at those rates. Taxes, refunds, foreign cards and currency charges are excluded.

Check Stripe’s current rates. If members cover the service fee, your gym’s costs differ and members pay more at checkout.

Enter the exchange rate and all payment rates to calculate a total. Enter 0 where a quoted fee is zero.

Zen Planner prices checked November 1, 2026: official pricing. Select only add-ons you pay for separately; avoid counting bundled tools twice. CornerDesk includes booking pages and member texts, not a full website builder or branded app.

Pricing

One plan, with everything in it.

No tiers, no per-member math, no feature gating. Kiosk, texts, trials and payments are all included.

Card fees. Each card payment carries Stripe’s processing fee (see Stripe’s pricing) plus $1 for CornerDesk. Your members pay both as a small service fee, so you keep your full price, or you can cover it yourself. Cash or e-transfer you record in CornerDesk has no fees.

FAQ

Straight answers.

For gym owners who’ve been burned by software before.

Do my members need to install an app?

No. Members get a magic link by text message — their portal opens in a browser with their next class, booking, membership, and card-update button. Nothing to install, no passwords.

I'm on Zen Planner. How painful is moving?

It isn't — we do it for you, free. Send us your exports and we import members, memberships, class balances, ranks, notes and payment history, and your weekly schedule (paste it in, or we enter it with you); you check a full preview, then run both side by side for your 30 free days. Prefer to do it yourself? The importer reads Zen Planner CSVs directly.

What happens after the free 30 days?

It's $99 CAD/month, flat, billed in Canadian dollars (including to gyms in the US). You add a card when you start, we email you three days before the trial ends, and you can cancel any time before then and pay nothing.

Where does my money actually go?

To you. Each gym connects its own Stripe account, so member payments settle directly with you. CornerDesk never holds funds. Each card payment carries Stripe's processing fee and $1 for CornerDesk, which your members pay as a small service fee unless you choose to cover it.

Is there anything to pay besides the flat price?

Card payments carry Stripe's processing fee (see stripe.com/pricing for your country's rates) plus $1 per payment for CornerDesk. By default your members pay both as a small service fee shown before they pay, so you keep your full price; you can switch to covering it yourself. Cash or e-transfer you record in CornerDesk has no fees. There's no setup fee and no migration fee.

What does the kiosk run on?

Any tablet, laptop, or phone with a browser. Optionally protect it with a staff PIN. Members type their name and tap — check-in takes under five seconds.

Is there a contract or setup fee?

Neither. Month-to-month, no setup fee, no migration fee. Download everything as CSVs any time — members, memberships, payments, attendance, notes, ranks, messages and signed waivers — even after you cancel. If you leave, you leave with everything.

Multi-location? Fight camps? POS inventory?

Not yet — on purpose. CornerDesk is built deep for single-location independent gyms first. If that's you, you're exactly who this is for.

Your corner is ready.
