No store rating on record, and billing and access control take setup.

The report card
Best for UK and Irish gyms and health clubs
ClubWise does class booking, billing, 24/7 access control, a CRM and member and staff apps. It publishes no price, the API is read-only and a paid add-on, and its own direct debit collection is described for the UK and Ireland.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | No price is published, and the site directs buyers to book a demo. |
| Free plan and trial | F | No free plan or trial shown on the listing, so nothing here is free. |
| Features | B | Booking, billing, access control, CRM, apps and reporting. Nothing in the listing shows a gap in the core job. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record, and billing and access control take setup. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web with member and staff apps, plus Stripe, Global Payments, Polar and Tanita links. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who ClubWise is for
- Fits if you run a gym in the UK or Ireland and want direct debit built in
- Works for clubs that use Polar or Tanita equipment
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want a posted price, as buyers book a demo
- Watch out: the API is read-only and a paid add-on
- Watch out: in-house direct debit is for the UK and Ireland, other regions use other routes
- Skip it if you want a trial, as none is listed
- Not for you if you want a plug-and-play third-party setup, as the API is closed to that
Good to know
Good for
- UK and Irish clubs that want direct debit collection handled by the same vendor
- Unstaffed 24/7 gyms using QR-code entry
- Multi-site operators needing one system for bookings, billing and access
Worth knowing
- No prices are published; the site directs buyers to book a demo.
- The API is read-only and closed to plug-and-play third-party use, and it is a paid add-on.
- The vendor's in-house direct debit collection is described for the UK and Ireland; other regions use other payment routes.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace ClubWise you would be making email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
What you could make
- Class booking, appointment booking, reports and sales pipeline: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
- It plugs into other products, Stripe, Global Payments and Alright Now among them.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. ClubWise’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
