[Jamful]Top 3 Popular Wellness Apps Loved Overseas

If you're a foreigner living in Korea, or someone who’s looking to maintain a wellness routine while travelling or relocating, you might have wondered:

“Is there an app like ClassPass in Korea?”
“Why isn’t there a service in Korea where I can pay just for as many studio classes as I want?”

On the other hand, Koreans might think:

“Are wellness apps like Jamful really that popular overseas?”
“How do people abroad enjoy fitness and wellness?”

That’s why we prepared today’s article — to introduce three globally popular wellness apps similar to Jamful: ClassPass, Wellhub (formerly Gympass), and Mindbody.

Let’s look at how these global platforms work and see how Jamful compares.

ClassPass

ClassPass is a global membership platform that allows you to book classes at studios and gyms around the world — all from one app. It’s especially popular among people who travel frequently but want to keep their fitness routine consistent.

With ClassPass, you load credits into your account and use them to book various wellness experiences like yoga, Pilates, HIIT, spinning, and even spa/salon sessions. You can also book beauty and relaxation services such as nails, massages, and brow treatments.

As of 2024, ClassPass operates in over 2,500 cities across the U.S., Europe, and Oceania (excluding Korea), and has surpassed 248 million total reservations. Interestingly, 94% of users visit studios they’ve never tried before thanks to ClassPass.

👉 Main features of ClassPass

• Credit- or ticket-based booking system

• Wide network of fitness and wellness partners

• Search filters by location, time, and class type

• Acts as both a user platform and a promotional channel for partner studios

Wellhub (formerly Gympass)

Wellhub, formerly known as Gympass, is a corporate wellness platform (B2B) that helps companies offer their employees access to fitness, meditation, sleep, nutrition, and other wellness programs through one flexible system.

Companies that adopt Wellhub report improvements in employee health, engagement, retention, and productivity — earning Wellhub high praise worldwide.

Mindbody

Mindbody is a management and booking platform for wellness businesses such as gyms, salons, and spas. It’s also the company that acquired ClassPass.

While ClassPass focuses on consumers, Mindbody serves service providers — helping business owners manage schedules, reservations, and customer relationships. The platform currently supports over 65,000 partner businesses and handles more than 120 million class bookings per year.

Beyond acquiring ClassPass, Mindbody also integrated Booker and introduced a new umbrella brand called Playlist, aiming to unify customer and provider experiences within one robust ecosystem. Today, Mindbody is recognized as one of the world’s most influential wellness platforms.

Jamful — Korea’s Answer to ClassPass

So how does Jamful, Korea’s leading wellness platform, compare to these global apps?

Jamful shares many similarities with ClassPass and Wellhub, but also introduces features tailored for Korean users and businesses.

With partnerships across over 800 wellness centers nationwide, Jamful connects individuals and companies to high-quality wellness experiences through a flexible, point-based system.

1️⃣ Discover and Book Nearby Centers

Jamful allows users to find and reserve classes like yoga, Pilates, personal training, or Strong Pilates near their location. You can search by center name, area, or keyword — perfect for those who prefer variety over long-term gym contracts.

Whether your schedule is unpredictable or you simply enjoy trying new workouts, Jamful makes it easy to book anytime.

2️⃣ Pay Only for What You Use

Instead of paying a fixed monthly fee at a single studio, Jamful uses a point-based system (“Jam” credits). Users can charge points valid for 1, 3, or 6 months and freely use them across multiple studios.

There’s also a guest pass feature, letting you invite friends, colleagues, or family who haven’t tried Jamful yet — making wellness a shared experience.

3️⃣ From Consumers to Companies — Expanding Wellness Partnerships
