ClubPal review
A gymnastics-focused club manager with free access and fees only when taking payments.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ClubPal is a club management platform tailored to gymnastics classes, members and payments. It suits small clubs that need to manage bookings alongside parent-linked child accounts, attendance and consent records. Class sessions can include capacity limits, coach-to-gymnast ratios and assigned coaches; clubs can also set level-based booking eligibility and manage term-block bookings with usage and expiry tracking. These tools make ClubPal relevant to clubs organizing recurring gymnastics classes rather than looking for a general-purpose membership database alone.
Its pricing is structured around avoiding a monthly subscription. The Free plan costs £0 per month and includes all features and unlimited members. For UK payments, ClubPal lists a transaction-fee option of 20p + 3.5% per transaction, with no monthly subscription. That approach can suit a small club seeking to avoid fixed software costs, while payment charges will matter more as transaction volume grows. Online payments cover memberships, sessions, shop orders and facility hire; Apple Pay and Google Pay are listed integrations. Clubs should compare the transaction cost with their expected payment activity before choosing this model.
The product's strongest operational fit is the combination of gymnastics-specific class rules with member administration: attendance records and class-level reporting sit alongside parental consent and medical information collection and export. ClubPal states GDPR and PCI-DSS coverage. Its member-facing account area is web-based, so clubs wanting a native mobile app should consider alternatives. The positioning also leaves meet management outside the product's stated feature set, and support is via email. Choose ClubPal for low-cost class and member administration; look elsewhere if meet workflows or a native app are essential.
