FanBase is a fitness creator platform built for coaches who want to run an online fitness membership without stitching together five apps. Members pay you monthly for workouts, plans and check-ins, you can sell single programs as pay per view, answer clients with paid messages, and keep 80 percent of everything.
Most coaches already give away workouts on social media. The followers who save every post are the people most likely to pay for structure, accountability and a direct line to you. FanBase gives them one place to do that.
What fitness creators sell on FanBase
Fitness fans pay for results, so the best perks are the ones that make training easier to stick with.

- Follow along videos. Full sessions people can play at home or in the gym.
- Programs. A 6 or 8 week program sold once as pay per view, or included in a higher tier.
- Form checks. Members send a clip, you reply with a paid message that holds your notes.
- Meal ideas and grocery lists. Simple nutrition posts that fit your training style.
- Monthly live Q and A recording. Answer questions on video and post it for members.
- Progress challenges. A 30 day challenge post for members, with weekly check in messages.

Tier ideas for coaches
Keep the ladder clear: content at the bottom, plans in the middle, personal attention at the top.
| Tier | Example price | What members get |
|---|---|---|
| Train | $7 per month | Two new follow along workouts each week and the monthly Q and A recording |
| Program | $19 per month | Everything in Train, plus the full weekly plan, meal ideas and every program included |
| Coached | $45 per month | Everything in Program, plus one form check message each week and a monthly plan adjustment |
You can also offer 3, 6 or 12 month bundles with your own discount. New Year and early summer are good times to push a 3 month bundle.
A worked earnings example
This is a hypothetical example to show how the 80 percent share works out. It is not a result from a real coach.
| Income source | Example activity | Fans pay | You keep (80 percent) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Train tier | 120 members at $7 | $840 | $672 |
| Program tier | 45 members at $19 | $855 | $684 |
| Coached tier | 8 members at $45 | $360 | $288 |
| Pay per view | 20 sales of an 8 week program at $29 | $580 | $464 |
| Tips | Month total | $60 | $48 |
| Total | $2,695 | $2,156 |
Say 173 people pay you each month. Most sit in the lower tiers, and a handful of coached clients add a strong top line. You can try your own numbers with the calculator on the FanBase homepage and check the full cost breakdown on the fees page.
Why coaches pick FanBase over a generic course tool
Course tools charge a monthly plan whether you earn or not. FanBase is free to join and earns only when you do, through the 20 percent fee. You also get the parts of coaching that course tools skip: messages with fans, paid replies, tips and a feed that keeps members coming back each week.
| What you need | FanBase |
|---|---|
| Monthly membership | Up to 3 tiers, $4.99 to $49.99 |
| Sell one program | Pay per view post at one price |
| Client messages | Fans message you, you reply with locked media |
| Post ahead | Scheduling for workouts and plans |
| Know your numbers | Analytics by memberships, renewals, PPV, messages and tips |
| Own your client list | CSV export any time |
If you are also weighing other platforms, our guide to sites like Patreon compares the main options, and the membership platform page explains how tiers and bundles work.
Getting your first members
- Pick one outcome. "Stronger in 8 weeks" sells better than "fitness content".
- Post one free full workout. Show the quality members get.
- Run a launch challenge. A 30 day challenge with weekly check ins gives people a reason to join this week.
- Reply fast. In the first month, answer every message. That personal touch is what people pay for.
- Use bundles. A 3 month bundle matches how long it takes to see results.
Safe, mainstream and paid on time
Every creator on FanBase is identity verified before the first payout, so clients know they are paying the real coach. Every post is reviewed before it goes public, and there is a report button on every profile and post. Read more on the safety page.
Payments clear 7 days after each one is made. Once your cleared balance is $50 or more you can withdraw, and payouts go out weekly to a bank account or crypto wallet. The payouts page has the full schedule.
