TrainHeroic plans and prices
TrainHeroic sells one coach plan priced by the number of athletes you coach, under the line "Pay only for what you need".
| Athletes | Price per month (USD) | Billing | Branded app | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 9.99 | Monthly | No | Also the Coach Plan price for selling only through the Marketplace |
| Up to 5 | 17.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 15 | 34.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 25 | 44.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 35 | 59.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 50 | 74.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 100 | 99.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 250 | 159.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 500 | 199.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 750 | 299.99 | Monthly | No | |
| Up to 1,000 | 399.99 | Monthly | No | |
| More than 1,000 | Price on request | Quote | No | "Contact Us" |
What the page adds around that table:
- Assistant coaches cost extra: "Add Assistant Coaches for just $9.99 / month", per coach.
- Monthly only: the page shows "/MONTH" prices and "Change Your Plan Anytime". Some third-party sites quote an annual price, but TrainHeroic's own page does not, so we leave it out. Ask sales if you want annual billing.
- No setup fee or overage is mentioned. When you pass a tier, you move to the next one.
- No white-label app. Your athletes use the TrainHeroic app. The page says you can "Make TrainHeroic your own by adding your logo, custom exercise demos, and personalized coaching content."
What TrainHeroic costs at 10, 30 and 75 athletes
At 10 athletes you pay $34.99 a month, at 30 athletes $59.99 and at 75 athletes $99.99, because you need the smallest tier that covers your roster.
| Your athletes | Tier you need | Per month | With 1 assistant coach | 12 months, no assistant |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | Up to 15 | $34.99 | $44.98 | $419.88 |
| 30 | Up to 35 | $59.99 | $69.98 | $719.88 |
| 75 | Up to 100 | $99.99 | $109.98 | $1,199.88 |
The assistant and 12-month columns are our arithmetic from the published prices. Marketplace fees are not included because they depend on what you sell.
The tiers are close together at the low end, so a new athlete rarely means a big jump: going from 15 to 16 athletes moves you from $34.99 to $44.99. The bigger step comes at 51 athletes, where you move straight to the 100-athlete tier at $99.99. Above that the price per athlete drops fast, which suits coaches who program for large teams.
Selling programs: TrainHeroic Marketplace fees
When you sell programs or team subscriptions through TrainHeroic, the fee depends on who brought the buyer: you, through your own link, or TrainHeroic, through what it calls Marketplace Match.
The figures below come from TrainHeroic's help article Marketplace Seller Terms and Payment Information (last updated February 2025, checked October 2026).
| Sale type | TrainHeroic fee | Bank fees |
|---|---|---|
| Team subscription sold through your own link | $1 a month for each subscription | 2.9% + $0.30 |
| Program sold through your own link | $1 per month of program length | 2.9% + $0.30, once |
| Sale driven by TrainHeroic (Marketplace Match) | 30% of the purchase price | 2.9% + $0.30 |
Two details from the same article matter for planning. First, "You do NOT need to pay for athlete seats upfront if you're planning on selling through the Marketplace", so a coach who only sells programs needs just the $9.99 Coach Plan. Second, payouts are made monthly through PayPal on the 15th, so plan your cash flow around one payday a month.
A worked example, using our arithmetic on those published fees: you sell a 3-month program for $60. Through your own link you pay $3 (3 months at $1) plus $2.04 in bank fees and keep $54.96. If the same sale comes through Marketplace Match, you pay $18 (30%) plus $2.04 and keep $39.96. The match fee buys you a buyer you did not have to find, so it can still be worth it for a coach without an audience.
What drives your TrainHeroic bill
Five things decide what TrainHeroic costs you each month: athlete count, assistant coaches, how you sell, whether you need your own app and whether you pass 1,000 athletes.
| If this is you | What happens to the price | First step |
|---|---|---|
| Your roster grows every month | You move up a tier as soon as you pass its limit | Price the tier you expect in six months, not today's. |
| You coach with a partner or staff | Each assistant coach adds $9.99 a month | Count every coach who needs a login. |
| You sell programs to people you find yourself | $1 per subscription month or program month, plus bank fees | Send buyers your own link, not a Marketplace search. |
| You rely on TrainHeroic to find buyers | 30% of each matched sale, plus bank fees | Set program prices with the 30% in mind. |
| Clients expect an app under your name | Not offered; logo and custom demos only | Decide whether your logo inside the app is enough. |
| You coach more than 1,000 athletes | Price on request | Ask for a quote with athlete and coach counts. |
Who TrainHeroic fits best
TrainHeroic fits performance-focused strength and sport coaches, especially those who program for teams or want to sell programs to an audience they do not have yet.
The company calls TrainHeroic "the home for performance-minded coaches who are: In-Person/Remote, Quality Obsessed, Goal Driven, Ready to Level Up", under the tagline "High-Performance Coaching Starts Here". The listed features are Teams and 1:1, video review, selling programs through the TrainHeroic Marketplace, a customizable library, real-time chat, client tracking and easy client onboarding.
It is the stronger pick when:
- You coach a team or a school program with dozens or hundreds of athletes, where the upper tiers spread the cost thin.
- You want to sell programs without paying for athlete seats, starting from the $9.99 Coach Plan.
- You start with one or a few athletes and want a low entry price.
It is a weaker fit if you want an app under your own brand, if you need annual billing on the published page, or if most of your income would come through Marketplace Match at 30% per sale.

How to work out your own TrainHeroic number
Take your athlete count today and in six months, find both tiers in the table above, and add $9.99 for each assistant coach. If you sell programs, add the per-sale fees for how you expect buyers to arrive. Compare that monthly total with two alternatives at the same roster size, then use the 14-day trial with real athletes before you move everything over.
