The short version

  • Each has a real cost: GlossGenius card payments are charged at a flat 2.6 percent, and instant payouts cost a further 1.8 percent; Regpack plan prices are no longer published, so a buyer must enter a sales process before knowing whether the product is in budget, and cannot benchmark the quote against a list price.
  • They diverge on capability: GlossGenius covers Custom booking pages, Regpack covers Conditional registration logic.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

GlossGenius

  • Card payments are charged at a flat 2.6 percent, and instant payouts cost a further 1.8 percent
  • Forms and waivers, waitlists and Google booking need the Gold plan at $56 a month
  • Team analytics, custom commissions and unlimited team members require Platinum at $168 a month
  • The medspa plans start where the beauty Platinum plan does, at $168 a month, rising to $298 for the full clinical suite
  • Payroll is a separate add-on at $40 a month plus $6 per staff member

Regpack

  • Plan prices are no longer published, so a buyer must enter a sales process before knowing whether the product is in budget, and cannot benchmark the quote against a list price.
  • The conditional logic that makes it capable also makes it slow to configure, and complex registrations often take days of setup and testing rather than an afternoon.
  • The applicant-facing interface is dated compared with modern form products, which matters when the form is the first impression a parent has of your programme.
  • Because Regpack processes the payments, switching platforms means moving your merchant relationship and any stored instalment schedules, which raises the real cost of leaving well above the licence.
  • Reporting is built around applicants and balances rather than programme analytics, so organisations wanting attendance, capacity or cohort analysis export the data elsewhere.

Switching from monthly to annual billing saves 12-14% on your subscription cost. For example, Gold drops from $56 per month to $48 per month when billed annually.

It is the floor, dependent on volume and card mix. Ask for your quoted effective rate against your actual card mix rather than the advertised minimum.
