The self-hosted PushPress alternative
Gymora — Self-hosted gym membership manager with front-desk check-in guards and class-pack credit tracking. Own it once, run it on your own server, and stop paying PushPress every month.
Stop renting PushPress
1 month of PushPress equals this one-time price.
Assumption: PushPress has a genuine free plan and it is the honest starting point for a small gym: no monthly fee, paid for through a 4.99% + $0.30 processing rate on every card payment. The figure cited is the paid Pro tier, where the processing rate drops. Gymora charges no processing rate because it processes no payments; it is one payment for the software.
How PushPress pricing grows with you
PushPress meters by PROCESSING on the free plan (4.99% + $0.30 per card payment) and by MONTH on Pro and Max, where the processing rate falls.

What PushPress does that we don't
PushPress includes unlimited users, admins, members and staff on every tier, including the free one.

Who should stay with PushPress
Stay with PushPress if you want integrated payments and a free tier to start on — for a gym taking card payments through the platform, its free plan is a fair deal. Gymora is for a gym that already bills members another way and wants its member records, check-ins and class packs on its own server. Full honest limitations are on the product page.
Why owning beats renting PushPress
- One payment. No monthly, per-seat, or per-location fees — the license is perpetual.
- Your data stays on your server. It never lives in PushPress's cloud.
- No plan ceilings. Records and users are limited by your hosting, not a pricing tier.
- It keeps working if the vendor doesn't. Self-hosted software can't be sunset or price-hiked out from under you.
Fair trade-offs: you host it, back it up, and apply updates yourself — see the product page for honest limitations, and the full Gymora vs PushPress comparison.
