Pike13 Client App vs. Pike13 Branded App

What's the Difference?

 When you choose Pike13 for managing your business, you’ll have access to two options for client-facing mobile apps: the Pike13 Client App and the Pike13 Branded App. Both provide the same powerful features that let your clients easily schedule classes, manage their memberships, and handle payments. However, there are a few key differences between these two options.

The Pike13 Client App

The Pike13 Client App is a free, ready-to-use app available for both iOS and Android devices. It allows your clients to:

  • Book classes, appointments, and courses.
  • View and manage their upcoming activities.
  • Purchase and track passes and memberships.
  • Manage payment methods and more.

The app is listed under "Pike13" in the app stores, which means your clients will download the app under the Pike13 name and log into their account using your business’s Pike13 site.

The Pike13 Branded App

The Pike13 Branded App offers all the same functionality as the Pike13 Client App, but it’s personalized to reflect your business’s branding. Here's how the Branded App stands out:

  • Custom Name: Instead of asking clients to download the "Pike13 Client App," your business’s app will appear in the app stores under your chosen name.
  • Logo and Branding: The app will feature your logo and business name, creating a professional and seamless experience for your clients.
  • App Store Presence: Your app will be found under your business’s name in both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

This personalized app gives your business a branded presence in the app stores, making it easier for clients to find and download your app directly, rather than searching for the Pike13 app.

Key Considerations for the Branded App

  • Not Customizable Beyond Branding: While the Branded App reflects your business name and logo, it isn’t customizable in terms of additional features or layout changes. The functionality remains the same as the standard Pike13 Client App.

  • Apple Developer Account Required: To launch a Branded App on the Apple App Store, you'll need an active Apple Developer Account. This step is required to manage the app under your business's name.
