Plan Comparison: Start vs Pro vs Gold

Bloowatch’s Activity Platform comes in three plans: Start, Pro, and Gold. Each plan is designed for a different stage of your business — from a solo operator getting organized, to a growing school scaling operations, to an established center that needs full automation and analytics.

This article gives you the complete picture: pricing, resource limits, and a feature-by-feature breakdown so you can pick the right plan (or know when it’s time to upgrade).

To change your plan, contact the Bloowatch team:

  1. Live chat — Click the chat icon in the bottom-right corner of the app
  2. Email — Reach out to your account manager or support

Plan changes take effect immediately. If you’re on annual billing and upgrade mid-cycle, you’ll be credited for the remaining time on your current plan.

Good to know: Bloowatch offers annual billing discounts (17-20% off) and multi-app bundle discounts. Ask about seasonal arrangements if your business operates only part of the year.

Q: Can I try a higher plan before committing? A: Contact support — they can arrange a temporary upgrade so you can test features before deciding.

Q: What happens when I hit a resource limit? A: You’ll be blocked from adding more of that resource (e.g., a 4th staff member on Start). Upgrade to unlock more capacity, or contact support for a temporary override.

Q: Do I lose data if I downgrade? A: No data is deleted, but features and resources above your new plan’s limits become read-only or inaccessible until you upgrade again.

Q: Is there a free plan? A: There’s no free plan, but Bloowatch offers onboarding assistance with every plan to get you up and running quickly.
