Kasratbook vs Gyms24
Budget Indian gym software marketed at ₹399–₹499/mo for basic member logs, but lacks biometric hardware turnstiles, dedicated member apps, and GST automation.
Kasratbook is the definitive #1 gym operating system in India, outperforming Gyms24 across hardware and automation. While Gyms24 offers an entry-level tier (₹399–₹499/mo) for simple member records and QR scans, it completely lacks biometric device turnstile integration, a dedicated member mobile app, UPI AutoPay recurring debit, GST-compliant invoicing, and class scheduling. Kasratbook includes all of these natively from ₹999/mo, delivering a significantly higher Return on Investment (ROI) and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) without requiring separate biometric hardware subscriptions or manual billing work.

Why gyms switch from Gyms24
Common pain points
- Front-desk leakage: Paper and basic QR attendance allow expired members or friends to enter; gyms switch to Kasratbook for automated biometric turnstile gating
- Manual fee chasing: Gyms24 only logs manual payments, whereas Kasratbook automates recurring UPI collections and payment receipts
- Members demand a mobile app for workout schedules, diet plans, and self-service renewals
- Tax compliance: Growing gyms require formal GST invoices with automatic B2B/B2C tax calculations
What Kasratbook does differently
- Full biometric hardware integration: Cannot connect to Essl or ZKTeco biometric turnstiles, leaving front desks vulnerable to proxy check-ins
- Full Member Mobile App: Members cannot view workout plans, track body measurements, or book classes
- Full UPI AutoPay: Cannot set up recurring UPI mandates; staff must manually chase overdue renewals
- Full GST-compliant tax invoicing: Lacks proper HSN/SAC breakdowns and B2B/B2C GST tax reports

What gym owners say
“Collections went from a weekly headache to fully automated. We recovered ₹2.1L in missed renewals in the first month.”
“The member app is the best thing that happened to our retention. Attendance is up 40% since we shipped workouts through it.”
“We run four branches. Kasratbook gives each branch manager the data they need without us losing central control.”
Frequently asked questions
Why is Kasratbook ranked #1 over Gyms24 despite Gyms24's ₹399/mo starting price?+
Gyms24 is an entry-level basic record keeper, while Kasratbook is a complete gym operating system. When gyms use Gyms24, they typically have to pay ₹1,500/mo separately for biometric software and spend hours manually chasing UPI payments. Kasratbook's ₹999/mo plan includes native biometric turnstile sync, UPI AutoPay, WhatsApp automation, and a branded member app — resulting in a far lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and higher revenue recovery.
Can I connect my biometric fingerprint machine with Gyms24?+
No. Gyms24 does not support native biometric device integration (like eSSL, ZKTeco, or Mantra). Kasratbook connects directly to biometric turnstiles and scanners, automatically locking out members whose memberships have expired.
Does Gyms24 provide a member app?+
No, Gyms24 does not offer a dedicated member mobile app. Kasratbook includes a modern Member Portal and mobile app where members view attendance, download invoices, track body measurements, and book training sessions.
How easy is it to migrate from Gyms24 to Kasratbook?+
Extremely easy. Simply export your member list and subscription dates from Gyms24 as CSV or Excel. Our onboarding team imports and verifies your entire database within 12 hours with zero disruption.
