When it comes to choosing management software for your Pilates, Yoga or fitness studio in the EU, the decision between NexiBook and Momence comes down to one simple thing: do you need a platform built for the EU market or a global one that doesn't account for local legislation and needs?
Momence is a respected international platform, headquartered in the USA, used by studios worldwide. It offers solid management features, payment processing and marketing. However, for a studio in the EU, Momence comes with several significant disadvantages: pricing billed in USD with per-transaction fees on its Free (5% business + 4% client) and Pro (2.5%) plans that add up quickly for a busy studio, complete absence of automated invoicing integration (legally mandatory since 2024), and support exclusively in English.
NexiBook was built from the ground up for EU studios. The price of NexiBook Solo, from €19/mo for one instructor — or NexiBook Studio, from €49/mo for a team — includes everything you need: booking system, client management, automated invoicing through SmartBill or Oblio, WhatsApp notifications, Zoom integration for online classes, and localized support.

The most visible advantage of NexiBook is the price model. NexiBook Solo (1 instructor), at €19/mo flat — or NexiBook Studio (team), at €49/mo flat — with 0% platform commission, you always know your exact cost. Momence's Free plan looks cheaper on paper, but it charges a 5% fee to the business plus a 4% fee to the client on every transaction; its Pro plan ($60/month) still takes a 2.5% cut. Only Momence's Custom plan, at $199/month, drops the platform fee to 0% -- more than 10x NexiBook's price. For a studio processing real revenue, those percentage fees on the Free and Pro plans can add up to far more than the subscription price itself.
Moreover, NexiBook bills in EUR, which eliminates currency risk. Momence bills in USD, so exchange rate fluctuations can increase the real cost of your subscription from month to month.
Since January 2024, all companies in the EU are required to issue electronic invoices through government systems. This is not an option — it is a legal requirement with fines for non-compliance.
NexiBook has native integration with SmartBill and Oblio, the most popular invoicing platforms in the EU. When a client pays for a subscription or session, the electronic invoice is generated automatically and transmitted to the tax authority. Zero manual work, zero compliance risk.
Momence offers no integration with automated invoicing. Studios using Momence must handle invoicing separately — either manually or through other software. This means double the administrative work and risk of errors.
When you have a technical problem in the middle of a class with 15 participants, you need quick resolution. NexiBook offers support in your local language by phone, WhatsApp and email. You speak directly with someone who understands your studio's context and can solve the problem immediately.
With Momence, support options are limited to tickets in English. Response times can be longer, and the language barrier can complicate communication, especially when the issue is urgent or complex.
In the EU, WhatsApp is the main communication channel. NexiBook integrates WhatsApp notifications natively — booking confirmations, class reminders, waitlist notifications and marketing messages can be sent directly through WhatsApp. Open rates are over 90%, compared with 20-30% for email.
Momence relies mainly on email and SMS. There is no native WhatsApp integration, which means you must manage WhatsApp communication manually or through third-party services.
NexiBook includes automatic Zoom integration (NexiScreen) at no extra cost. When you create an online class, the Zoom link is generated automatically and sent to participants. In addition, NexiScreen allows creating a video on-demand library — class replays that clients can access anytime.
Momence offers video features, but Zoom integration requires manual setup or extra costs. The video on-demand functionality is more limited compared to NexiScreen.
NexiBook operates on a simple model: 0% platform commission. You only pay the monthly subscription (from €19, Solo plan) and the standard Stripe fee for card processing (1.5% + €0.25 per transaction). Every euro collected from clients remains yours.
Momence applies a platform fee on top of the subscription: 5% (business) + 4% (client) on the Free plan, or 2.5% on the Pro plan ($60/month). Only the $199/month Custom plan drops this to 0%. These fees are separate from standard card-processing rates and can add significant costs, especially for studios with high booking volumes.
Momence is a solid platform for international studios that don't need EU localization. If you operate in markets such as the USA, UK or Canada, Momence may be a good choice.
NexiBook is built specifically for the EU market. If you operate a studio in the EU, it's the choice with the best value for money, with tax compliance included.
Let's compare the real cost over one year of use for a medium-sized EU studio:
| Cost | Momence | NexiBook |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly plan (from) | $60/mo, USD (Pro plan) | €49 — Studio plan |
| Platform fee | 2.5% of revenue (Pro plan) | 0% |
| Annual cost, at $10,000/mo revenue | $720 subscription + $3,000 fee = $3,720 (USD, Pro plan) | €588 |
| Automated Invoicing software | ~$10-20/month (separate) | Included |
| Zoom Integration | Extra cost / manual | Included |
| Total Estimated Cost / Year (Pro plan example) | ~$3,720+ (USD) | €588 |
Example assumes $10,000/month in bookings on Momence's Pro plan — a team-run studio, so the NexiBook side of this comparison uses the Studio plan (€49/mo, built for a team), not the single-instructor Solo plan. Momence's Free plan charges 5% (business) + 4% (client) instead of a flat subscription; its Custom plan is $199/month with 0% platform fee. Momence bills in USD, NexiBook in EUR — figures are shown in their native currency rather than converted.
| Plan | Price/mo | Ideal for |
|---|---|---|
| Solo | €19 | 1 instructor, small studio |
| Studio | €49 | Instructor team, multiple classes |
| Studio Pro | €99 | Full studio, Zoom LiveStream included |
| NexiScreen | €89 | Video on-demand, replay library |
All plans include: 0% commission, automated invoicing, localized support, 14-day free trial.

For most studios, yes. NexiBook Solo is a flat €19/month (1 instructor) with 0% platform commission; NexiBook Studio is €49/month for a team, still with 0% commission. Momence's Basic plan is free but charges a 5% fee to the business plus a 4% fee to the client on every transaction; its Pro plan is $60/month (USD) with a 2.5% fee; its Custom plan is $199/month (USD) with 0% platform fee. Once you factor in Momence's per-transaction fees on the Free and Pro plans, NexiBook is typically the lower total cost for a studio processing meaningful revenue.
Yes, migration from Momence to NexiBook is possible and assisted by our support team. We can import your client list, active subscriptions and attendance history. The process takes usually 1-3 business days, and the localized support team guides you step by step. We also offer a 14-day free trial period to test the platform before full migration.
NexiBook offers several unique features for the EU market that Momence doesn't have: automated invoicing integration through SmartBill or Oblio (electronic invoices generated automatically), natively integrated WhatsApp notifications, dedicated localized support by phone and WhatsApp, NexiScreen (video on-demand system for replays), prices in EUR without currency fluctuations, and automatic Zoom integration included in price with no extra costs.
No, Momence does not have integration with automated invoicing systems in the EU. Being an international platform, Momence does not support electronic invoicing as required by EU legislation. Studios using Momence must issue invoices manually or use separate invoicing software. NexiBook has native integration with SmartBill and Oblio for automatic generation of electronic invoices directly from the management platform.
For Pilates studios in the EU, NexiBook is the optimal choice. Main reasons: a flat €19/month (Solo plan, 1 instructor) or €49/month (Studio plan, for a team), with 0% platform commission either way (versus Momence's percentage-based fees on its Free and Pro plans), automated invoicing is included natively (legally mandatory since 2024), technical support is localized, and the platform is specifically optimized for the needs of Pilates, Yoga and fitness studios in the EU. Momence may be an option if you have an international chain of studios with English-speaking staff.
