Momence runs a studio’s operations: memberships, staff, billing, a branded app. Youniq is where new people find your classes, events and retreats and book them. A studio on memberships keeps Momence and lists on Youniq for discovery. A solo teacher or event host usually needs only Youniq.

Questions people ask
Is Youniq a replacement for Momence?
Not for a membership studio. Momence is management software: memberships, billing, staff, a branded app. Youniq is a discovery and booking marketplace for wellness events with lighter organizer tools: schedules, class packs, discount codes, a site and a widget. Many studios use both.

Does Youniq handle memberships?
No. Youniq sells single bookings and class packs of any size with their own validity. If your income is monthly memberships, keep a management system for that part.
Who pays the fees on Youniq?
The guest, at checkout. A service fee of 5% on the free plan, down to 1% on Pro and Premium, plus card processing at Stripe’s rate. Your payout is the full price you listed. Retreats are the exception: guests pay the listed price and a commission comes from the organizer side.
Can I use Momence and Youniq together?
Yes. Keep Momence for memberships and staff and list your public classes, workshops and retreats on Youniq so new people can find them. There is no integration between the two, so a shared class needs its spots managed in one place.
