Comparison
CPR class registration software compared
There’s no single best CPR registration software: it depends on how many students you register, whether you want cards issued inside the software, and how you take payments. This page compares JoinCPR, Enrollware, CPR Enroll, Hovn, MyTASystem and ClassByte on price, fees, trials and features, using each company’s own published information.

About eCard integration: Enrollware lists connections to the AHA, the Red Cross and HSI; Hovn to the AHA and the Red Cross, with HSI in beta; ClassByte to the Red Cross, ASHI and MEDIC First Aid, with the AHA coming soon. CPR Enroll’s is a browser extension that fills in Red Cross and HSI forms, with the AHA coming soon, and MyTASystem lists “direct integrations” on its Business plan without naming the certifying bodies.
Enrollware
Best for: AHA, Red Cross and HSI training centers that want cards issued from the same system, with training sites and affiliate instructors managed under one center on the Premium plan.
Pricing: Tiered plans by student registrations a month: $119 up to 100, $179 for 101 to 200 and $299 above that. Premium is $449 with AHA training center features, and a $45 Lite plan with fewer features sits on a separate page. Setup fees are shown as waived. Payments go through EnrollwarePay only, at 2.8% + $0.20 per transaction and $9.99 a month, and text messaging is an add-on from $30 a month.
Strengths: AHA eCards, Red Cross course records and HSI cards issued from inside Enrollware; training sites and affiliate instructors in their own areas under a center on Premium; deposits with a balance due; students rescheduling themselves; a check-in page for class day; Zapier webhooks. It says it is used by 60,000+ instructors.
Trade-offs: Its help center says it has no client portal and that bulk registration for group clients involves no payment. Registration pages live at yourcompanyname.enrollware.com, payments must use EnrollwarePay, and no free trial is listed.
CPR Enroll
Best for: Businesses that want the longest feature list, including a paperwork builder, Wallet passes, kiosk and RQI stations, deposits, invoicing and a store, and are comfortable with a per-enrollment fee on the $30 plan.
Pricing: Standard is $30 a month plus a $2 platform fee per student enrollment, which you absorb or pass to students. Unlimited+ is $302 a month with no enrollment fee. Paying yearly saves two months. No setup fee. The 14-day trial needs a card. Payments go through Stripe.
Strengths: The longest feature list here: a paperwork and checklist builder, Apple and Google Wallet passes, QR-coded certificates, kiosk and RQI stations, deposits, invoices, sales tax and processing-fee lines, a store, equipment tracking, outgoing webhooks and a browser extension that fills Red Cross and HSI forms from your roster.
Trade-offs: The $2 fee on every Standard enrollment, a card to start the trial, and AHA eCards listed as coming soon.
Hovn
Best for: Providers who want AHA and Red Cross cards issued from the roster and are happy for their class pages to live on hovn.app.
Pricing: Essentials is $50 a month with 30 registrations, Pro $160 with 100 and Business $380 with 250, then $2.00, $1.75 or $1.50 for each extra. A registration counts once the certification is issued. $50 setup fee on Essentials. No free trial; a free walkthrough instead.
Strengths: AHA eCards and Red Cross certificates issued from the roster through its card banks, with HSI in beta; corporate orders billed with a Stripe invoice; you pay only for registrations that reach certification; help moving from other systems.
Trade-offs: Booking pages live at hovn.app/your-name, and its help center says it uses direct links rather than embeds. Its blog says employers don’t get their own login today, and its student emails use fixed templates.
MyTASystem
Best for: A solo instructor who wants the lowest entry price, $19 a month for one user, and a 30-day trial.
Pricing: Instructor is $19 a month for 1 user, Basic $69 for up to 10 users and Business $149 for unlimited users, each plus a 0.5% platform fee on online payments. 30-day free trial with no card. Payments go through Stripe.
Strengths: The lowest entry price and the longest free trial of the CPR software compared here, automatic sales tax and a store on every plan, and on higher plans email campaigns, payroll reporting, equipment tracking and training sites.
Trade-offs: The 0.5% of every online payment, and many tools depend on the plan. Group checkout, a corporate client portal and automatic text reminders aren’t listed, and its plan chart lists email support.
ClassByte
Best for: Training centers that issue Red Cross, ASHI or MEDIC First Aid cards and want that automated, with a training site portal.
Pricing: One plan at $199 a month with unlimited students, instructors and classes. A demo on request; setup fee and trial not stated. Payments through your own Stripe or Authorize.net account.
Strengths: RapidCert issues cards through direct connections to the American Red Cross, ASHI and MEDIC First Aid; training site, instructor and corporate customer portals; support for AHA program administration paperwork; instructor offers with accept and decline tracking.
Trade-offs: No free trial is stated, AHA card issuing is listed as coming soon, and so are its third-party integrations, including Zapier. Waitlists and group checkout aren’t listed.
JoinCPR
Best for: Instructors and training centers that want one flat price, their own payment account and booking site, and tools for corporate clients.
Pricing: $59 a month for one plan with every feature, with no setup fee and no per-student, per-registration or payment fees. 15-day free trial with no card. Payments go to your own Stripe or Square account.
Strengths: Unlimited students and team members, group checkout for up to 50 students, an automatic waitlist, SMS reminders included, AHA and Red Cross roster exports, certification tracking with renewal reminders, keycode banks, a corporate client portal, a booking site on your own domain with widgets, calendar sync, and Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign and GoHighLevel. See every JoinCPR feature.
Trade-offs: JoinCPR doesn’t issue eCards or submit rosters to the AHA or Red Cross; you export the roster and record the card numbers. It has no public API, Zapier or webhooks, no deposits, invoices, sales tax lines or standalone store, no training site sub-accounts, and no app to install; it runs in the browser on any device.
General booking apps (Acuity, Calendly, Bookeo, Eventbrite)
General booking apps take bookings and payments, and some handle group classes, waivers and waitlists, but none of the four lists certification expiry tracking, renewal reminders or AHA and Red Cross rosters on its website.
Acuity Scheduling starts at $16 a month billed yearly and Calendly at $10 a seat, both built for appointments. Bookeo’s class plans start at $39.95 a month and list the most class tools of the four, including paid waiver add-ons. Eventbrite is free for free events and adds a fee to each paid ticket.
They suit a free community event or one-to-one sessions booked by time. See JoinCPR vs general booking apps for the details.
How to choose the right CPR software
Start with your volume and the few things you can’t work without, then try the finalists with a real class.
- Price it at your volume. Count your registrations a month and cost each option on its cheapest plan for that number, including per-registration and payment fees.
- Decide where cards are issued. If you want eCards issued inside the software, check that it connects to your certifying body today, not “coming soon”. If you issue them in the AHA or Red Cross system, a roster export in their format is what matters.
- Check how you get paid. Your own Stripe or Square account, or the vendor’s payment service, and whether any percentage comes off each payment.
- Choose where your booking pages live. On your own domain, on the vendor’s, or embedded in your website, and whether that matters for how students find you.
- If you train companies, check what their contacts can do themselves: register employees, see who is trained, or get an invoice.
- Try it with a real class. A free trial lets you run a test registration yourself; some vendors offer a demo instead.
- Read the terms. Contract length, notice periods and how you can export your data if you leave.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best software for a small CPR business?
It depends on your volume and what you need to do inside the software. For one instructor at low volume, MyTASystem’s Instructor plan has the lowest published price, $19 a month plus 0.5% of online payments, and costs less than JoinCPR up to 106 registrations a month at a $75 class price. If you want AHA or Red Cross cards issued from the roster, Hovn’s Essentials plan costs less than JoinCPR up to 34 registrations a month, plus a $50 setup fee. For a flat bill with every feature, unlimited team members and text reminders included, JoinCPR is $59 a month.
Which CPR software has no per-student fees?
JoinCPR ($59 a month) and ClassByte ($199) publish one flat price, and CPR Enroll’s Unlimited+ plan ($302) has no enrollment fee. Enrollware charges no fee per student but prices its plans by registrations a month and processes payments through EnrollwarePay, and MyTASystem takes 0.5% of online payments. Hovn charges per registration above each plan’s allowance, and CPR Enroll’s Standard plan charges $2 per enrollment.
What are the best Enrollware alternatives?
It depends on why you’re moving. For cards issued from the software, look at Hovn (AHA and Red Cross, HSI in beta) or ClassByte (Red Cross, ASHI and MEDIC First Aid, AHA coming soon). For a flat price, your own Stripe or Square account and a corporate client portal, JoinCPR is $59 a month. For the longest list of extras, CPR Enroll; for the lowest price for one user, MyTASystem.
Which CPR software issues AHA eCards?
Of the products compared here, Enrollware and Hovn say they issue AHA eCards through a connection to the AHA. ClassByte and CPR Enroll list AHA as coming soon, and MyTASystem lists “direct integrations” for card processing on its Business plan without naming the certifying bodies. JoinCPR doesn’t issue them: the AHA, Red Cross or other certifying body issues its own card, and JoinCPR doesn’t submit rosters to their systems. You export the roster in their format, record the card number in JoinCPR, and JoinCPR tracks the expiry date and sends the renewal reminders.
How we compared
We checked each company’s own website, including its pricing page, feature pages, help center and terms, on September 29, 2026, and wrote down only what it publishes.
- Prices are in US dollars as published, before taxes. Monthly costs add the subscription, per-registration fees and percentage platform fees on the cheapest plan for each volume, with a $75 average class price; card processing and setup fees are left out for everyone.
- Features are marked ✓ when the company’s own site says it offers them, ✗ only when its own site says it doesn’t, and “Not listed” when we found no mention either way. We didn’t sign up for other products or speak to their sales teams, so a feature a company offers but doesn’t describe shows as “Not listed”.
- JoinCPR facts come from the product itself, and JoinCPR’s price and trial are read from the same settings its billing uses.
- Updates. We re-check every company at least every quarter and whenever we hear of a change. Spotted something out of date? Email info@joincpr.com and we’ll correct it.
