Straight answer
We're not the cheapest membership platform. Here's the honest answer.
Somebody will always quote you a lower monthly number — for software, for marketing, for anything. That is not a hard question to answer, it is just an uncomfortable one. So here it is in plain language: what we charge, what the difference pays for, and when you should buy the cheaper tool instead.
Before you compare monthly prices, compare annual outcomes
A platform fee is the smallest number in this decision. The expensive numbers are the ones nobody puts on a comparison sheet — members you never enrolled, members who lapsed on a dead credit card, and a plan built on someone else's brand. Put your own figures next to ours before you decide which option is cheaper.
Would you go to the cheapest dentist in your zip code?
Of course not — and you'd be suspicious of the one advertising that they are. Your customers pick you the same way: on whether the work is good, not on who charges least. Software buyers should apply the same test.
The members you never enroll
If a cheaper tool enrolls even a handful fewer members a month at your average plan price, the gap in annual recurring revenue is several multiples of any software fee. Run that number for your own plan price before you compare line items.
The members who quietly lapse
Expired cards, failed charges, and renewals nobody followed up on. Each lapsed member is a full year of that plan's revenue gone, and it repeats every year the process stays manual.
The plan you don't own
If your members live inside another brand's network, the value you build is not an asset on your balance sheet. That cost never shows up on a monthly invoice and it is the largest one on this page.
The months it sits unlaunched
The most expensive platform is the one you bought and never rolled out. Every month without a live plan is a month of recurring revenue you cannot get back.
Who this is for — and who it isn't
No mutual mystification. If you read the right-hand column and recognize yourself, buy the cheaper tool with our blessing and keep your afternoon.
BoomCloud™ is worth it when
- — You have real cash-pay or uninsured customers today and you are not converting them
- — You want the plan, the members, and the data to belong to your business
- — You want recurring revenue you can forecast, not a discount program
- — You want help launching rather than a login and a manual
Buy something cheaper when
- — You want the lowest monthly line item on your P&L and nothing else. Buy the cheaper tool — genuinely. We will not win that comparison and we are not going to pretend otherwise.
- — You want someone else to bring you members and manage the relationship. That is a network, not a platform. We do the opposite on purpose.
Already running a mature membership program?
Then this is a migration conversation, not a restart. We import your existing members with their renewal dates intact and run both systems in parallel so nobody lapses — and custom volume pricing applies to larger plans. Book a call and we will price your actual roster instead of a generic number.
Our price, stated plainly
Basic
$197/mo per location plus $4.50 per active member
Pro
$397/mo per location plus $3.50 per active member
You set the membership price and build the member fee into membership dues.
BoomCloud bills your business, not patients directly. This fee is designed to be built into the membership price, so membership revenue covers the secure billing, data protection, support, platform capacity, and member features required as the program scales.
30-day free trial, no setup fee, no long-term contract, cancel anytime. Every new account gets a real launch coach at no extra cost. Multi-location pricing is volume based. We publish our numbers on the pricing page — we don't quote anyone else's, because their pricing is theirs to publish and it changes. Ask them directly and compare like for like.
What the difference actually buys
You own the plan and the member list
Your brand, your pricing, your members, exportable any time. BoomCloud is not a network and not a third-party administrator — if you ever leave, you keep every member you enrolled. A cheaper tool that routes your members through someone else's brand is not cheaper; it is rented revenue.
Renewals and failed payments are worked, not just logged
Auto-renew, dunning on declined cards, receipts, and proration run without anyone on your team chasing them. A single member lost to an expired card costs more per year than the difference in software price.
Enrollment tooling, not just billing
Plan builder, enrollment flows your front desk can run in two minutes, marketing assets, and scripts. Billing software charges the members you already signed up. Enrollment tooling is what creates them.
A launch coach and a migration path
Someone builds the first plan with you, imports your existing members with their renewal dates intact, and gets you live. Most of the cost of a cheap platform is the six months it sits unused.
Revenue reporting you can act on
MRR, ARR, active members, churn, and renewal rate on one dashboard, so membership is a forecastable line of revenue instead of a side project nobody measures.
What that spend has produced for real practices
The questions behind the question
- Why is BoomCloud more expensive than other membership platforms?
- Because the price covers enrollment, renewals, migration, coaching, and reporting, not only card processing. BoomCloud is $197/mo per location plus $4.50 per active member; Pro is $397/mo per location plus $3.50 per active member. There is always a cheaper tool — the question worth answering is which one produces more members twelve months from now.
- What does the per-member fee actually pay for?
- Billing, renewals, dunning, the member portal, and support for every active member on your plan. This fee is designed to be built into the membership price, so membership revenue covers the secure billing, data protection, support, platform capacity, and member features required as the program scales. You are already paying a per-customer fee today — it is just hidden inside discounts and write-offs. This one grows only when your program grows.
- How many members do I need for it to pay for itself?
- Most practices cover their entire BoomCloud investment with roughly five to ten active members. Everything after that is margin.
- Do I own my members if I leave?
- Yes. Your plans, pricing, member list, and data are yours and exportable at any time. We are not a network — there is no branded panel that keeps your members if you go.
- What if I'm already on another platform?
- We export your member roster and billing schedule and import members with their existing renewal dates intact, running both systems in parallel during the switch so no member lapses. 30-day free trial, no setup fee, no long-term contract, cancel anytime.
- Is BoomCloud worth it for a smaller membership operation?
- Not always, and we will tell you on the call. If you have no uninsured or cash-pay customers to convert, membership is not your problem and software will not fix it. If you do, the math is simple arithmetic we can run with your numbers in thirty minutes.
Run the numbers before you pick on price.
Thirty minutes, your figures, an honest answer about whether membership is worth it for you at all — including if the answer is no.
