Why choose Coachli over Calendly
Calendly is an excellent scheduling tool trusted by millions of professionals. It makes booking meetings effortless with calendar integration, automated reminders and a polished user experience. However, Calendly's free plan is limited and payment collection requires a paid subscription starting at $10 per month.
Coachli is built specifically for coaches and creators who need more than just scheduling. With Coachli you get session booking, built-in payment collection, digital product sales and live event hosting — all in one platform with no monthly fees. You only pay a small transaction fee when you make a sale.
For coaches in Africa, Coachli offers a major advantage: native integration with Paystack and Flutterwave for accepting payments in Naira, Cedis and other local currencies. Calendly does not support these payment gateways, making it difficult for African coaches to collect payments from local clients.
If you only need simple meeting scheduling, Calendly is a great choice. But if you're a coach who wants to book sessions, sell digital products and host live events without juggling multiple tools or paying monthly subscriptions, Coachli is the all-in-one alternative.
