Pricing

What you see is what you pay.

Fair, transparent pricing for the arts. We don't charge per location, we don't bill for users you didn't add, and we don't send surprise charges for things you never signed up for.

What you see is what you pay

Side by side, line by line.

Studio finances are sensitive. Our monthly pricing is upfront and transparent, and the transaction fee is charged once per checkout — not per item, not per student, not bundled with hidden markups.

Transaction pricing

A small fee per checkout. That's it.

0.75% per checkout, capped at $2. No hidden processing markups. No tiered fee schedules. No surprise charges at the end of the month.

  • Per checkout, not per item or per student
  • Lower than other studio software on every checkout over $100
  • Within pennies on smaller checkouts — offset by the subscription savings
  • Stripe processing fees apply separately, at standard published rates

This small fee supports and improves the online payment tooling — refunds, processing, fraud protection. You'll always see exactly what you're paying and to whom.

A pricing promise

Your price is locked the day you subscribe.

Atelier Studio uses grandfathered pricing. If we ever raise prices later, your subscription stays at the rate you started with — for as long as you keep your plan. If we ever drop prices, you can switch plans to pick up the new rate; yours never moves on its own.

Handled automatically by Stripe Billing. The locked rate appears on every invoice.

Every plan includes

The foundations. In every plan.

Some things shouldn't be a paid upgrade. These are in every Atelier Studio plan.

01 / Scheduling

Class scheduling & management

Set studio hours, holidays, instructor availability, and class times. Atelier Studio handles the rest.

02 / Checkout

Online payments & Express Checkout

Take card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay online, and check students in with a scan at the front desk — no account, no app.

03 / Reporting

Reports & analytics

At-a-glance studio health dashboards and the core reports to run your studio. Advanced reporting is a Premium add.

04 / Embed

Booking widget

One <script> tag drops your schedule into any existing site. Theming and colors controlled from your account.

05 / Notifications

Email & text notifications

SMS today; RCS & WhatsApp — late 2026. Smart routing to reach customers where they actually are.

06 / Payments

Your own Stripe account

Your money is yours — payments go directly to your Stripe. We help you set up a new one or link an existing account.

07 / Onboarding

Data import & export

Moving from another platform? We'll help import your data — and if we don't already support it, we may build it for free. Your data is always exportable.

08 / Support

Email & chat support

Email and ticket support today; chat — late 2026. Premium puts you at the front of the queue.

Text messaging

Texts, at cost, nothing on top.

Email is included on every plan. Text messages — SMS, RCS, or WhatsApp — go through carrier compliance and registration. We handle the legal hoops and pass the actual costs through to you, with nothing marked up.

A one-time $50 activation

This is a one-time fee that covers TCPA compliance and registration with The Campaign Registry — Atelier Studio handles all of it on your behalf. It covers:

  • Purchase of a dedicated phone number for your studio
  • Texting brand registration fee
  • Texting campaign registration
  • Ongoing phone number leasing
  • Ongoing texting campaign cost

All plans include the recurring phone number leasing and campaign costs at no extra monthly charge.

Monthly allowance

Starter
2,000 / month
Standard
8,000 / month
Premium
20,000 / month

We never stop sending if you hit the limit. Anything beyond is $0.01 / message, passed through at carrier cost. We'll notify you before it happens.

Portrait of Craig, co-founder of Atelier Digital.
I priced this the way I'd want it as a studio owner: what you see is what you pay. No per-location markups, no per-student surprises. And if prices ever go up, yours doesn't — your rate is locked from the day you subscribe.

Common questions

Pricing, in plain English.

What is an "active student" on Atelier Studio?

Anyone who, in the current month, signs a waiver, signs up for a class, pays for a class, or joins a waitlist. The counter resets monthly. Every plan — Starter, Standard, and Premium — includes unlimited active students, with no per-student charge. Whether you're a boutique studio just starting out or a full school, bring your whole roster.

Do you charge per location or per student?

No per-location charge, ever. No per-student charge on any plan — every plan includes unlimited active students. Multi-location support coming late 2026 is included with Premium.

Where do online payments go?

Directly to your own Stripe account. We never hold your money. We'll help you set up a new Stripe account or connect an existing one as part of onboarding.

What is the transaction fee?

0.75% per checkout, capped at $2 — charged per checkout, not per item. Stripe's standard processing fees apply separately and you'll always see exactly what you're paying and to whom.

How does the 14-day free trial work?

When you sign up you enter Setup Mode — up to 30 days to configure your studio at your own pace, no trial clock running. The free 14-day trial only begins when you click Launch Studio. Billing starts on day 15 of the trial at the plan you chose, at the price you saw (locked in for life). No credit card needed to sign up.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. No notice period, no cancellation fee, no questions.

Will my price ever change?

We use grandfathered pricing. The rate you sign up at is locked for as long as you stay on the same plan — even if we raise prices later. If we ever drop prices, you can switch plans to pick up the new rate; your subscription doesn't move on its own. Stripe Billing handles all of it automatically, and your locked rate appears on every invoice.

Ready to start?

Fourteen days to find out if it fits.

Sign up in minutes. Setup Mode is free; the 14-day trial starts only when you click Launch Studio. No card required, no obligation.
