What PT Distinction Costs at Different Client Numbers
The table uses the cheapest plan for each client count, based on the prices above. It excludes tax and the free first month for new extra clients.
| Active clients | Cheapest plan | Monthly cost (USD) | 12 months (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | Basic | $19.90 | $238.80 |
| 10 | Pro | $59.90 | $718.80 |
| 20 | Pro | $59.90 | $718.80 |
| 30 | Pro (25 + 5 extra) | $71.90 | $862.80 |
| 50 | Master | $89.90 | $1,078.80 |
| 75 | Master (50 + 25 extra) | $129.90 | $1,558.80 |
Two switch points matter:
- Basic to Pro at about 10 clients. Basic with 10 clients costs $19.90 + 7 × $6.00 = $61.90, which is more than Pro at $59.90.
- Pro to Master at about 38 clients. Pro with 38 clients costs $59.90 + 13 × $2.40 = $91.10, which is more than Master at $89.90.
If you are on Basic and grow past 9 clients, move to Pro. Staying on Basic costs more and does not include a branded app.
How This Compares With Google Sheets
GSheetsPro costs £199 GBP as a one-time payment, with no monthly or per-client fee. It includes a client management dashboard, macro and meal plan templates, beginner and advanced check-in sheets, training plans with an exercise library, a weekly progress tracker and an editable 200+ food database. See the current package on the pricing page.
The two products do different jobs, so compare cost and features together:
| What you need | Google Sheets with GSheetsPro | PT Distinction |
|---|---|---|
| Payment model | £199 once | Monthly subscription, from $19.90 |
| Cost as clients grow | No change | Rises with client numbers |
| Client experience | Shared Google Sheets files | iOS and Android app; branded on Pro and Master |
| Programming | Editable training plans and exercise library | Program Builder and AI Program Builder |
| Nutrition | Meal plans, macros and food database in Sheets | Nutrition coaching and AI meal planner |
| Messaging and reminders | Use your own tools | In-app messaging, scheduled email and SMS |
| Payments | Use your own payment tool | Selling packages and taking payments |
| Customisation | Edit any layout or formula | Configure within the platform |
For example, at 20 clients PT Distinction Pro costs $718.80 over 12 months. GSheetsPro costs £199 once. Check the currency shown for each product; the products also have different features. Compare your own checkout totals and the features you would lose or gain.
When PT Distinction Is the Better Choice
PT Distinction has features a spreadsheet does not replace:
- A client app with messaging. Clients log workouts and message you in one app.
- A branded app on Pro and Master. Useful if a branded experience is part of your premium offer.
- Built-in automations. Scheduled emails, SMS and automated workflows work without external tools.
- Payments and packages. You can sell and collect payment in the same platform.
- Teams. Unlimited trainers at no extra cost suits a coaching team on one account.
If your clients use the app every day and these features save you time, the monthly cost can be good value.
When Google Sheets Is the Better Choice
Google Sheets suits coaches who:
- Already build programmes and meal plans in spreadsheets.
- Want to change check-in questions, formulas and layouts freely.
- Prefer a one-time cost to a subscription.
- Are happy to use existing tools for messages and payments.
The client management guide shows how to set up a roster and check-in routine in Sheets. The true cost of online coaching software compares other platforms.
Choose Based on How You Deliver Coaching
If you want an app, built-in messaging and payments, compare PT Distinction's plans at your current client count. If you want editable spreadsheets and a fixed cost, see the GSheetsPro system for £199.
