Best for martial arts clubs and small gyms

Clubworx covers online booking, billing and member management for gyms and studios, with a free plan for up to 20 members. Prices are in Australian dollars, the member app is a paid add-on, and it doesn't process payments itself.

Who Clubworx is for

  • Fits if you run a martial arts club and want grading tools
  • Works for a new studio with fewer than 20 members

Who Clubworx is not for

  • Watch out: prices are in Australian dollars, with no US price listed
  • Tight if you grow past 20 members, as the free plan ends
  • Watch out: the member app costs extra on every plan
  • Watch out: it doesn't process payments, and Ezidebit is named for Australia and New Zealand
  • Skip it if you want multisite, which starts on Accelerating

Why Clubworx gets a 2.2

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • CValue for moneyA$88 a month for 100 members on yearly billing, A$109 monthly. In US dollars that's in the middle of the category, and the member app is extra.
  • CFree plan and trialFree for up to 20 active members with booking, payments and a kiosk, plus 15 days of a premium plan with no card. 20 members is a cap you'll pass.
  • CFeaturesBooking, billing, CRM, kiosk and martial arts grading tools. But the member app is an add-on on every tier, and payments go through an outside provider.
  • CEase of useNo store rating on record, and a membership and billing system needs setting up.
  • BPlatforms and integrationsWeb plus iOS and Android, with Zapier, Brivo and Ezidebit links. No computer app.

Keep Clubworx, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace Clubworx 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 inventory: an app builder makes these well.

What you could not

  • Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
  • A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
  • Hooks into the device itself: widgets.

What this rests on. Clubworx’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.

What is Clubworx?

Clubworx is an Australian management platform for gyms, martial arts schools, dance, yoga and pilates studios and personal trainers. It handles memberships, class booking, payments, a hosted website, email and SMS, and a retail point of sale. Plans are tiered by the number of active members, and a free plan covers up to 20.

Worth knowing

  • Prices are shown in Australian dollars; no US-dollar price is listed.
  • The free plan is capped at 20 active members, and going over a plan's limit moves the account to the next plan.
  • The member mobile app is a paid add-on on every tier.
  • Clubworx does not process payments itself; it connects a provider, named as Ezidebit in Australia and New Zealand.
